  Wands at the Ready! (we check out Lego Harry Potter)

  Last week we got to go along to a Lego Harry Potter event in Central London and talk to TT Games' Jonathan Smith about the latest in the Lego game series. Focusing on years 1 - 4 (ie. the events from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, and Goblet of Fire), LHP features plenty of spell casting, broom flying, puzzle solving, and dynamic split-screen multiplayer. You'll have to wait until May to get your hands on it but here's some photos from the event to keep you occupied, and whet your appetite.

  
  
  Yes, that's a real Barn Owl.

  
  The adorable cast of Lego Harry Potter.

  Photos from Sony's UK MAG event

  Yesterday Sony organised an event for MAG which pitted 128 UK journalists, bloggers, and community members against the Zipper Interactive team in the states. It was a convincing 2-0 win for the UK, and we played two 30min matches on two separate maps. Logistically, the event was certainly no mean feat to pull off. I've been to countless industry events before but seeing 128 people play simultaneously was pretty cool. Here are some photos from the event:

  

  

  

  

  
  The screens were organised so that the scaffolding spelt "256" when viewed from above.

  
  ...like this official photo demonstrates. I think I'm the little blob at the top right-hand corner of the "5," in the alley between the "5" and "6."
