Win Tickets To See Russell Brand Live This Weekend!
Russell Brand's playing a show in the Albert Hall on Sunday. Tickets are like gold dust, we've heard. People would do anything for tickets. Which is ace, because we've got a pair of tickets to give away. It's the last time that Russell Brand will be performing his Scandalous show in London - if you want to see it after that, you'll have to buy his forthcoming DVD (out next Monday, fact fans) - so it promises to be something of a hoot. If you fancy winning this frankly quite brilliant prize, you'll need to take a look after the jump...

Win A Signed Copy Of Tekken 6 Now, Please
Now this is a prize. Everyone knows how much Tekken rules. It beats Mortal Kombat. It bitch-slaps Virtua Fighter. It dumps on the chest of Street Fighter. And now Tekken 6 is out, which is beyond wonderful. But what could make the release of Tekken 6 more wonderful? How about a competition where you can win an Xbox 360 copy of Tekken 6 that's been signed by the game's director Harada-San plus a selection of nonspecific Tekken 6 merchandise? Good. After the jump, innit.

Celebrating Halloween This Weekend? Then This Man Hates You
October's rubbish. Not only do we have to piss around with our clocks to make our days darker, but it gets a lot colder. But there is a plus to all of this - Halloween! Hooray for Halloween indeed because, unlike Christmas, it isn’t promoted to us three months before it takes place and we don’t have to have awkward family meals with aunts we’d rather not see. Everyone benefits from Halloween. The kids get to pester neighbours and pick up tons of free sweets. Adults get to pointlessly dress up as ghosts, skeletons and zombies and get drunk at various parties and clubs. But of course, some people in society are all bah humbug about Halloween. This time it’s the turn of the Christians to get their Bible in a twist and proclaim that it’s evil. Just like this man, see his rant after the jump.

Magic. MAGIC!
Right, we're going to need some help with this. If you're a magician, you've just become our best friend. After the jump you'll see a video from street magician Dynamo. He's a bit like David Blaine in a way, except he doesn't draw eyes on his hands and therefore isn't as much of a tit. But we digress. In the video, Dynamo does one of those old tricks where he switches one banknote for another one that's locked away in a bag. You'll have seen the trick a million times before. What we want to know is this: how does it work? Watch the video below and put an end to our misery. It's sending us potty.

Win Obsessed On DVD Now, Please
Obsessed, now that was a brilliant film. Just like Fatal Attraction, but none of the women had stupid haircuts and you didn't see Michael Douglas' nipples. Brilliant. And even more brilliant is the fact that, because it's out on DVD next week, we've got three copies of Obsessed to give to you. You'll like it - it's just like Dreamgirls except Beyonce doesn't burst into song all the poxy time and there's a fistfight at the end of it. Brilliant. The Obsessed competition details are after the jump...

Badvertising – McDonald’s, Coming Back For A Big Mac
McDonald's seems to appear again and again on this feature. Before you all think we must have got food poisoning off them once and subsequently hate Ronald McDonald, we don’t. Honestly, their advertising is just complete and utter pants. Nowadays, they have improved, but we’re still unconvinced that farmers hug all the cows before slashing their throats. This time we’re travelling back to merry old 1978 where everyone in this advert seemed to be quite posh. Maybe McDonald's wanted us to believe that people with class dined in their restaurants and not just scummy kids who’d steal the free straws, napkins and packets of sauce. Contain yourself, it’s after the jump...

Michael Jackson This Is It Trailer: See, He Wasn’t Really A Wreck
Michael Jackson performing in London was meant to be the highlight of the summer. Instead, we had to make do with Oasis splitting up. Which we were fine with, incidentally. Jackson was supposedly happy to play 50 dates at the O2, a feat that would test his physical and mental abilities. That didn't happen because, as you may have heard, Michael Jackson died. Still, as the trailer to for Michael Jackson's This Is It movie shows, Michael was prancing all over the stage. Still, it doesn’t explain why he dropped down dead soon after.

TRAILER: The Rock? No, The Tooth Fairy!
Derek Thomson is what you'd call an asshole. As a hard-hitting hockey pro and full-time meathead, Derek (Played by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson) rules his life and family with a massive ego and an extra dose of spite. What goes around, comes around...
