I’m loving all the new Windows 7 info- This week, the 2008 coverage of Microsoft’s Professional Developers Conference has been geek heaven for me. I’ve been reading Paul Thurrott’s excellent Windows 7 Preview series regularly, waiting in anticipation for each new instalment. Really interesting stuff.

(This was just going to cover 2008 as a followup post, but then I realised Watchmen would not be releasing till 2009. Oops)
Let’s start with my previous list:
The Happening
I just didn’t bother with this one. Nothing much to say really!
Wanted
Really cool film. Plenty of action and a reasonable twist towards the end.
Hancock

As an avid Paramore fan, I’m obviously going to be interested when I hear about new material. I was happening to browse Paramore’s Official site and I came across a post about their next single.

LittleBigPlanet Trophies List- Looks like an interesting challenge. I can’t wait to get this game! It should be a real experience, and the community aspect for getting some of the trophies looks compelling. Contender for game of 2008? I think so.

Dive into BioShock: October 24th in the UK- Well, the post actually says ‘Dive into BioShock: October 21st’ but that’s for the US, so that’s not good, is it? Anyhow, BioShock is finally released on the PS3. I’ll be getting my copy!
Liverpool used to have a reputation for deprivation and high crime rate with no glimmer of hope on the horizon for its inhabitants. Over the past few years, that has very much changed. Yet being back in Liverpool for the celebrations for the Liverpool 2008 Capital of Culture, I did not see any real change. [...]

I love my films, and this summer is going to be great for popcorn addicts everywhere. And so I’m hopefully going to see a fair number of films this summer. I’ve already seen the excellent Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull but what else am I looking forward to in the coming [...]

This article had initially been penned a few months ago in the early Spring of 2008 and has been languishing in my drafts section ever since, but I’ve decided to spruce it up, hash, re-hash and finally publish this thing! So let’s get on with it, shall we?
So…I’ve had the opportunity over the past few [...]
In-game XMB Is Coming- I’ll believe it when I see it. There’s been many rumours over the past few months. Of course I’d like this rumour to be right, because it’d be a much-needed update for the PS3.

Music Festivals – Summer 2008 on Live Search Maps- All explained on the Virtual Earth/Live Search blog, very cool. As of writing, there is only one festival listing in the UK, however more will be added. You can check the feed for updates to the list.
