Meanwhile, nDreams has details of an exciting trans-Atlantic competition:

“From 17th April to 1st May, nDreams will be running ‘Battle of the Atlantic’ – a competition that pits the mighty behemoth of North America against the powerful colossus of Europe. Which territory has the best PlayStation Home gamers?

We will also be looking at smaller skirmishes over the two weeks. Are Canadian gamers better than those in the USA? Which countries around the world will come out on top? All this, and more, will be revealed over the two week period.

So how will it work? Every day from 17th April to 1st May, we’ll take the average from the top 50% of Orb Runner and Aurora Defence scores from each territory. Every day, the running total will increase as we add the scores from the previous day. Because we’re taking the average, no country or territory will be penalised for having smaller numbers of players.

We’ll keep running totals on both the Aurora ticker and on a special website, AuroraWar.com – the website will be updated every 5 minutes throughout the 2 weeks.”
