I'm a 35 year old, self-confessed media junkie from London. I currently work as a tester in digital media (some say I get paid to watch telly) and also worked as a games tester in the past. I also spend a lot of my spare time watching films and playing video games. Thankfully I have a very understanding wife, who allows me time to do so.

Review - Little Big Planet Karting

Straight to the point: Mario Kart it ain’t. This is a marriage between Modnation Racers and Little Big Planet, where the latter clearly wears the trousers.
