The news and goings on at E3 have been majorly interesting and it seems that there was one clear winner in the soon to be battle of the next gens,

Sony delivered an overpriced and reduced spec console that has 2 versions one with less features and lets be fair Joe public doesnt want to mess around with different versions of hardware, going down the Xbox 360 road on that score wasnt a wise move, as for the Xbox 360 itdidnt really grab my attention at E3 so that brings us to Nintendos funilly named Wii console, a console with many great games coming for it and the virtual console, which will massively please emulation fans. The thought of a lightsaber game/controller really grabs my attention.

Which system do you think most impressed at E3.? ...

Ultimax has released a Wallpaper/background creator for the PSP, heres what he says:

Ok, this program is very easy to use. left click on pattern to choose the colour of the gradient, and right click on the button to select the type of gradient.left click on bars to select the media bar colours and the transparency, right click to select wether or not to have an extra space at the top of the bar for the USB mode notice. left click on add bg to choose a background and the transparency.
left click on text to place some text, and left click again when you are satisfied with the position.
Left click again on any of thos buttons to remove them. Use save to export the background once you're satisfied with the results. This wont run on the PSP, but i made it for the PSP, so i hope it fits here.

Kozine has released PSPairs for the PSP, heres the info:

Hey guys,
Here is the release of my first fully completed game made in LUA. I decided to put Fly By on hold as I need to learn quite a bit more LUA to do what I want to do with it. So, I think I have made a first of its kind for the PSP. This is a clone of the classic card game Snap. But with a twist. From the readme:

.:.:.::PSPairs Readme::.:.:.
.:.:.::Coded by kozine::.:.:.

.:.:.::Controls::.:.:.
X: Place cards
O: When two cards match press this to get snap!

.:.:.::How to play::.:.:.
The aim of the game is to get 5 snaps before the timer reaches 30 seconds (will show as 30000)! To get snap, you must see two cards the same
and then press O, if you have got a snap you score will go up by 1. If you get 5 snaps before 30 seconds you win. If the timer gets to 30 seconds
before you get 5 snaps you will loose. This may sound easy, but the cards are placed at random!

.:.:.::Thanks and credit::.:.:.
kozine: To myself for thinking and coding the game
Gutya: For help along the way
Vaza: For help along the way
c5cha7: For helping me get on with the game
