That’s because there’s no limit on the number of tickets and you can play anywhere you like. So, if you’ve bought your ticket and you’re eagerly waiting for the start of the event, here are some tips on how to prepare and what to expect from the two days....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict This is a different beast to the Resident Evil 2 remake – and a lesser one, in all honesty – but it’s been stitched together with just as much love and attention to detail. They just decided to give it a flamethrower for good measure. Best Prices Today: Resident Evil 3 (Mac) You’ve got to imagine that high up at Capcom there were some pretty heated discussions about delaying the launch of Resident Evil 3’s new remake....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Aficio SG 2100N provides good performance for such an inexpensive printer, and Ricoh’s Geljet technology does work well when printing colour graphics on plain paper. Unfortunately, its high running costs make it harder to recommend – even for basic mono printing. The next model in the range is the Aficio SG 3110DN, which costs £90 and provides duplex printing as well as the option to use high-yield cartridges, so it may be worth paying more up front for that model in order to keep your long-term running costs under control....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Overall, the RockJaw Resonate is an excellent IEM which serves up brilliant sound quality along with great build quality (including detachable cables) at an amazing price. Best Prices Today: Rock Jaw Resonate IEM Rock Jaw Resonate review: Price Some may think £125 is a lot to spend on a pair of headphones, but in the grand scheme of things, it really isn’t. In fact, you can easily spend more than double this, but as with a lot of things, it’s a case of diminishing returns....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Samsung 840 EVO in its miniaturised mSATA form remains a force to be reckoned with. It effectively met the performance of the Samsung 840 EVO we first tested last year, and in some metrics was found to slightly exceed those results. If you’re looking for a high-performance mSATA SSD for your laptop, PC or storage product we have to concede this little drive really delivers....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict With so many phones being almost identical to the last model, we’re impressed with what Samsung has done with the Galaxy Note 10. The 10+ model still provides the classic Note experience, with more impressive specs, but this regular one will finally appeal to those that want the S Pen on a much more manageable phone. Best Prices Today: Samsung Galaxy Note 10 As expected, Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy Note 10 but this year there are two models to choose from....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict We’re really impressed by the Galaxy S8 Plus, just as we are with the regular S8. Samsung has done a great job of making last year’s phones even better. Both offer the infinity edge screen and most people will be better off saving money and going for the S8 unless you specifically want the Plus’s larger display and better battery life. Otherwise it’s hard to find any other reason to buy it over the smaller phone....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Solwise 600AV2 HomePlug Adapter is a decent Powerline adapter, with just above-average performance at a reasonable price. The Pass-Through socket is handy, and we liked the Gigabit Ethernet – although we would have preferred more than one port. A Wi-Fi option would also have benefitted this Powerline adapter – although you could add one from a different manufacturer if you wanted this at a later date....
