Brosnan gave Craig green-light

Pierce Brosnan gave his James Bond successor Daniel Craig the go-ahead to play 007, reports Wenn.

Brosnan was retired as Bond when the makers decided they needed a younger man, but the Irish actor had no problems with Craig taking over.

The new Bond says he approached Brosnan at an awards show weeks before he landed the role and asked him for the OK to proceed if he got the part.

Jacko not the first moonwalker
On his frankly embarrassing Question Time appearance Jarvis Cocker claimed that Michael Jackson invented the moonwalk. Nonsense. Shalamar's Jeffrey Daniel did it on TOTP in 1982, a year before Jacko. A tapdancer called Bill Bailey apparently did an earlier version in the '50s. DJ Gordy

Crime against gaming
I think the high value, cinematic cut scenes in Uncharted had the right look and length. I wouldn't want them any longer than that. Unskippable ones are a crime. I also don't like it when the character in a scene is different to the in-game one, eg "Hey, I haven't got that gun!" half_empty80 (PSN ID)
