I wonder if you can see the OXO tower from there decorated with the Playstation stuff? Could imagine that pissing MS off lol

edit: Plan B? How apt. Only one more week left for me my fellow next genners.

OXO tower is quite hidden to most ppl.

Leicester square is a tourist hub, hot spot for many events, film premieres etc. Also a pretty large club scene.

So yea MS did pick the best spot.

If they do, It will be done with LOVE/HEART and bigger! :P
