As you might well have guessed from the title, this is going to be a busy blog. Settle down, folks...

First off, my new piece of awesome-ness

This is my Logitech Driving Force GT, a PS3 (and particularly Gran Turismo) compatible steering wheel. I had never used and Steering Wheel peripheral before "The Gadget Show Live" where I tried the big brother of this, the Logi' G25.

Well having got the wheel on Wednesday, I can safely say that it is absolutely awesome. Combines with the vehicle interior view of Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, this wheel is just amazing. The thing that takes this wheel and the G25 apart from most other wheels is that they have Force Feedback. This is where, say for example, you go across some grass the wheel vibrates furiosly, and wheel powersliding it feels like the front wheels are fighting you when you opposite lock it and correct it our of the curve.

This is now the reason that my PS3 comment has changed to "I Can't Wait for GT5!" because I reall, really can't. I own nearly all of the cars that Prologue has to offer now, so it is beginning to get a bit boring, hence two new purchases that I have actually paid for

The first piece of DLC for Killzone 2, one of my favourite games of all time, was always going to be a purchase option. There are two new online maps for the fairl extortionate price of near-enough £5. I do think they could give them away for about £3 because 5 is a tad steep, but nonetheless it was worth it in the end.

There was also an update for it, which provides new ranks. Oh yes. Seeeing as nearly everyone was a General, the highest atttainable rank, Guerilla Games have upped the amount of XP for the highest rank from 2800 to an incredible 100,000! This will surely take nigh-on forever, and only 87 people in the world currently have that rank. I like to think that one day I'll reach the heady height of that rank, and maybe I shall!

The maps, though are both great, and one of them is based on the Cruiser level of the Story mode, which I always personally thought would make a good map. So I shall be playing Killzone 2 more and more again soon, along with...

...that, which I bought brand new for the budget price of £20 (about... $32)! I was very happy with this because I was a big fan of the origional Motorstorm. Well, for me at least it has certainly delivered. It has the same great gameplay as the origional with Monster Trucks and elemental effects thrown in!

The graphics, if anything, have been improved, and after I have played it a bit more I will fully review it for anyone who fancies a read of that.

Yup, its exam time.

The GCSE's are some of the most important bit's or writing I'll do in my life, so naturally over the next week (which is all I've got until my first exam! A FEGGING WEEK!) games will be taking a backseat, along with eating, drinking and sleeping. I have some good grades already, such as an A in the table I made in Woodwork, alongwith an A for the accompanying folder, an A in English Language and an A* in my Geography coursework.

I'm really hoping to do OK in all my final exams, but I am beginning to feel the pressure, especially from my Brother's result page - at GCSE there were 8 A*'s, 2 A's and a B and then at A level he got 5 A's... Hmm...

Also, a sorry for all the blogs that I have missed in the past week or so and that I will be missing in the foreseeable month.

Hope you all enjoy the warm ish weather that'll be rolling in over the next through months!
