This morning we were alarmed to discover that Sony had enlisted us with the elite American assault force, the US Navy SEALs. Waiting for us in the post was a lovely canvas package promising to give us 'advanced training' before 'deployment' - no doubt into one of the world's many violent hotspots. Crikey, we thought, our breakfast hasn't even settled yet.
Fortunately, we haven't actually been press ganged. The package is just a neat, thoughtful way of delivering some review code and assets for PSP's SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs: Fireteam Bravo 2 and PS2's SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs: Combined Assault.
But - like our collection of other PR-bunged goodies - it just shows how some things we get sent really stand out. We're also fond of expensive electronic goods, if anyone's interested...
