Who needs Eastenders, Hollyoaks or Corrie when you've got our weekly Top Tweets Twitter update. There's enough drama on there this week to satisfy even the most hardened of soap opera fanatics.

With death, lies and intrigue doused liberally throughout the week's tweets, it's surprising we still found so much time to deliver up-to-the-minute, pocket gaming news. But we did, as ever, with aplomb.

If you are still to get on board the feathered microblogging freight train known as Twitter, then after you have had a good long hard think about what you're doing with your life, be sure to pay our Twitter page a visit. It's as good a start as you are likely to find.
