Zavvi Manchester's gaming section is immense, I'll be paying them a visit next week.

Good job I didn't delete HD Concept, it's practice time!

EDIT: Are there any rules in place that prevents me from entering the HMV Manchester as well?

I doubt I'll win either but I might get a better time in my second race, I don't know, just thought I'd throw it out there.

The same as all the others?

Great idea, but why start the competition before the games even released as some players who havn't got/played the older games will not stand a chance as they will be rubbish.
