An artist has transformed one million matchsticks, 35 gallons of glue and 3,000 hours into a 340 kilogram train that measures just under seven metres long, and almost three metres high. The highly flammable replica, dubbed “Plane Loco”, has recently rolled into Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Times Square Odditorium. Artist, Pat Acton from Gladbrook, Iowa, created the matchstick train to be so big and strong that visitors are able to climb into the engineer’s cabin. Similar to a real train, “Plane Loco’s” throttle, brake and forward levers are all moveable. Edward Meyer, the Vice President on Ripley’s Exhibits and Archives said, “This train is an incredible work on its own, but the fact that Pat built it one single matchstick at a time is what visitors will find truly…

LITTLE BATTLERS EXPERIENCE 3DS The 3DS is full of unique, fun experiences, and this is yet another gem to enjoy. It’s based off theTV show of the same name and involves using little customisable robots to fight it out in miniature worlds contained in Battle Boxes. Outside of the battles, the game has an incredibly detailed 3D world for you to walk around and explore, and you can also go into shops where you can spend credits to buy new parts and weapons for your little battlers. There’s plenty of depth in the customisation, with a host of stats to tweak and improve as you try to make them as strong as possible. And you’ll need to battle other people from around the world and undertake quests to keep earning…

GAMEPLAY This year FIFA does not have any big new features in its gameplay, but instead it has spent all its time tweaking some of the complaints from last year. This is an approach we like. The developer has worked on evening up the teams more by improving defence – especially slide tackles – and working on the different pace of players. Passing has been improved, too. PES, on other hand, has focused on making each player feel different depending on who they are, added new one-on-one moves, better aerial challenges and smarter defensive AI. VISUALS For years FIFA has been leading the way with its visuals, but last year – and now again in 2015 – the visuals of PES have really started to catch up. Both games have…

An English inventor has launched a bed to solve the issue of people who sleep through alarms. The ‘High Voltage Ejector Bed’ has been designed to fling the occupant from their comfort with self-described “garage inventor/ video maker” Colin Furze declaring, “Anyone who could still stay asleep when this goes off is not human” Furze posted a video on YouTube demonstrating the ejector bed in action where at one point, the bed is set to the highest setting and flings the dummy sleeper against the wall!

There are a lot of very cool things you get to do as a games journalist, and one of the best is being able to play blockbusters and new technology well before they ever come out.

Imagine if your head was inside theTV. So no matter which way you look, all you can see is the game world. You can look right up until you feel like your neck is going to break and see the sky or the roof in the game world. You can look all the way down and see your…

This spacey lookin’ beast is called the Concept S and – as expert Lambo fans would know – it’s based on a first-generation Gallardo. It was designed by some dude called Luc Donckerwolke (haha!) who drew inspiration from the classic single-seat racing cars of the past – but made his version more extreme…to say the least! After receiving a huge amount of public likes at the Geneva Motor Show where it was shown off, Lamborghini bosses decided to build a driveable prototype to hopefully turn into a production model. The driveable prototype has only changed a little from what Luc originally had designed. For example, the windscreens had to be re-designed to be legal for the road and so on. The good thing about that is, not only will you…

When WWE offered me a contract last year there were no promises.They just said ‘You can start in NXT and see how it goes from there’.

FORMAT: PS4 RELEASE DATE: SEPTEMBER 9 Long-time readers may remember us talking a lot about Tearaway in 2013.

Now, almost two-years later, a revamped HD version of the game has arrived on PS4, and it’s just as brilliant. Tearaway Unfolded follows the story of Atoi, who is actually a piece of mail that has transformed into a moving human-like shape. You play this kind of God-like being who wants to help Atoi deliver herself to her destination, by interacting and engaging with the…

SHAME OF THE MONTH Once at school I was getting over a cold and had a lot of boogers. I kept on sniffling and sneezing and using heaps of tissues. I wanted to stay at home but I had to do a presentation that day. When it was my turn to get up infront of the class i felt a sneeze coming on. I held it in for ages and it built up. All of a sudden I did massive sneeze which spun me round. When i faced the class again I had all this green snot running down my face into my mouth. From that day, everyone calls me booga! This was definitely the most embarrassing day of my entire life so far! Dirk, by email. When I was…
