In this review I will be looking at the WVQ-570DBE-1AVER from the Casio Wave Ceptor range. Alas Casio have neglected to give any of their extensive watch range catchy monikers so I will simply refer to WVQ-570DBE-1AVER as the Casio Wave Ceptor henceforth.

Who could have seen this one coming!? Microsoft announced today that their recent price adjustment has significantly increased the sales volume of their little-white-console-that-could; the Xbox 360. Now for the love of god and all that is holy Microsoft, please produce a version of the Xbox 360 that doesn’t look embarrassingly like a squashed marshmallow… some of us 360 owners ARE more than 10 years old.

In the last couple of days I’ve finally found myself sucked into the Xbox 360 indie game development haven dubbed the XNA Creators’ Club.
XNA is a framework developed by Microsoft to be used in conjunction with the C# programming language; it’s extremely easy to get to grips with and mind-blowingly simple to debug and run applications on an Xbox 360 using the Connect application that establishes a connection in a similar way to Windows Media Center.
