As damning an indictment that your format is in the gutter as you could hope to find. I wondered into Game over the weekend, and after cursing that the gamepad I bought last week was now eight quid cheaper, I headed off for the bargain shelves.

And there they were. Movie UMDs for the PSP. 98p each. Everything must go.

This one brave new format - remember those early 100,000 unit sales boasts - has been crippled by its horrible pricing structure and the fact that you get much more content on a DVD. And the corpses were on the shelves for all to see: Reservoir Dogs, Ghost In The Shell, Resident Evil 2 and more, at under a quid.

The most damning thing of all? I didn’t buy one of them. Eyestrain just isn’t worth the bother…
