I love the little tit for tat war that’s going on between Daily Radar and Computer & Video games at the moment!

It seemed to start a week or so ago when the Daily Radar’s US site ran a feature mocking C & VG for getting their wires crossed due to a translation cock up.

In a totally unvieled response, C & VG is running a front page feature saying that the Daily Radar site has published hoax pictures of a new Naughty Dog game for PS2!

It’s all quite funny, really – anyone who wants game news on the web will try them both, so trying to discredit each other is totally pointless.

Actually, it’s not a road – it’ll be a long plane flight from London to Los Angeles meaning it’ll be two days before I can feel my ass again.

Ahem. Not that I do it on a regular basis, but you know what I mean. Anyway, E3 should be top notch this year – I expectSony to come out with all their PS2 big guns blazing and MicroSoft doing their best to pee on the parade.

Either way it’ll be a great event and I’ll try to take as many snap shots as I can get away with!

I received mail from Andrew Collins at The Player magazine this morning – nice of him to reply, most people cant face this sort of thing on their first day back in the office!

Andrew told me that as they were going to print, Sony announced that Wipeout Fusion would be delayed intil at least September, so the visit to Studio Leeds was cancelled. This left them with no feature.

This sounds like a reasonably good excuse and I understand (working for a publishing company) the predicament these things can cause.

So there you go – although guilty as charged, The Player was only a victim of circuimstance.

Thanks for clearing things up, Andrew.
