This is your last chance to get into the Gadget Show this year!
There are only tickets left for the opening of the show this afternoon - basically you have about an hour to buy your tickets, and up until 5pm this evening to get in the door!
The show - one of the largest of it’s kind in the UK has sold out in record time - not surprising really considering what they have on offer for the visitor!
I won’t go into too many of the details here now (maybe a catch-up in a few days) - otherwise you won’t make it there on time………
So, visit their Official Site asap - and order your tickets now!
Maybe I’ll see you there?

With not quite the most child-friendly title, this console game is sure to be a huge hit for the ‘generation 30′ population.
We all remember when the first film came out with squeaky receptionist Janine, and Sigourney Weavers giant hair - and when Bill Murray got totally ’slimed’. We also (sadly) remember the platform game that came out shortly afterwards where you drove their contraption-filled ‘ambulance’ around the streets for what seemed like ‘forever’.
Well this is certainly going to be different!
Apparently Dan Aykroyd is heavily involved with the design and layout of the game, and thinks that this is almost like the third film in the series. But why make a game instead of another film? He said he just liked the idea of the look, and the way is referred back to the first film and had that ‘classic look’.
Available for xBox - PS3 - PS2 - Wii - DS and for the PC - the story details for the game are under tight wraps say TotalFilm, who got an inside interview - but it isn’t due to hit the shops until Christmas 2008.
They did, however, manage to gather the following details:
Rule Number 1 - Don’t cross the streams!!!
- Your character joins the GhostBusters as a rookie in New York
- The first scene is against an old lady in the library
- You get to battle Slimer in the hotel - just like the original movie
- End of section fight out with Mr StayPuft
Go to www.ghostbustersgame.com for some insight graphics from the opening and more details - this includes getting slimed yourself!!!
