An exciting week then, and you can bet next week's going to be just as exciting as the run up to Christmas starts. We'll have tons of news, some great previews and trustworthy reviews of the biggest games around.

As it's our birthday issue, we'll be looking back at the highs and lows of what's been an immensely interesting year, so don't miss that. All that remains now is to thank all our readers, especially those who have been with us from the beginning and have watched Future Gamer grow into the fantastic magazine it is. Thanks! Now go and tell all your mates to sign up and spam us in newsgroups around the world...

Future Gamer 52 will be travelling at the speed of light towards your mailbox on Thursday November 4.
