The latest edition of Start/Select is now live on GameSpot UK. The video team and I talk demo Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Wipeout HD and Buzz!: Quiz TV, while Luke Anderson interviews the developer of Haze.

Sony recently sent in a bundle of upcoming PS3 titles such as Wipeout HD, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and the new PS3 version of Buzz. Shipping with wireless controllers and including online play, this is definitely the best version I’ve played, and as a fan of the series it may be one of the contributing factors to my purchase of a PS3 to play it on. The preview’s over at GameSpot now.

…they certainly attract some ‘interesting’ characters. This guy had walked right off of Nathan Barley and into the Apple Store when I was in yesterday. Wonder if he had his bluetooth headset linked up to his Wasp T12?

Yesterday I got to have a hands-on with the new version of one of my favourite franchises, Wipeout HD. Check out the preview over at GameSpot for my thoughts on how it’s shaping up, and also check out the video below.

Last night was the UK launch party for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and I was on location. The event seemingly existed to show off a lot of expensive cars, including the first UK unveiling of the Nissan GT-R. However, I also played the game itself in one of the custom-built pods, lapping up the Logitech steering wheels and Sony HDTVs. The game launches in Europe today, and you can read my final hands-on preview here. Check out my Flickr for more photos.
