:00:00. > :00:08.Hi, I'm Ricky live in the Newsround studio with the biggest stories of
:00:09. > :00:12.the day. Coming up, we dig up the story on what's been called the
:00:13. > :00:16.worst video game ever made. And how do you re-populate an island with
:00:17. > :00:23.puffins? We find out. This is Newsround.
:00:24. > :00:26.But first, just a five hour flight from the UK, Syria used to be a
:00:27. > :00:29.country full of beautiful buildings and busy streets. But after three
:00:30. > :00:35.years of civil war, hardly anything looks the same. 9.5 million people -
:00:36. > :00:38.that's almost half of the people who live there - have had to leave their
:00:39. > :00:41.homes. Fighting between the government and the opposition has
:00:42. > :00:45.been almost continuous and whole cities have been destroyed by bombs
:00:46. > :00:50.and fighting. Some of the fiercest fighting has been in the city of
:00:51. > :00:54.Aleppo. This is what it used to look like. Now the city is a dangerous
:00:55. > :01:01.place that few people go to. BBC reporter Ian Pannell got a rare look
:01:02. > :01:08.inside. Most of the people who live in these areas have fled. Hull
:01:09. > :01:12.neighbourhoods are effectively abandoned. Now and again you see the
:01:13. > :01:17.odd person, small children going through rubbish. But otherwise
:01:18. > :01:22.people have run to the countryside for safety. We spent the last few
:01:23. > :01:27.days in the city and the bombing campaign pretty much does not stop
:01:28. > :01:34.day or night. The truth is there is almost no work in Aleppo that could
:01:35. > :01:37.be described as safe, either on the government side and certainly not on
:01:38. > :01:41.the opposition side. And for guides, galleries and all
:01:42. > :01:44.the information you need on the Syrian conflict, head on over to the
:01:45. > :01:47.Newsround website. Next, for over one hundred years
:01:48. > :01:50.Ramsay Island, off the coast of Wales, has been a puffin free zone.
:01:51. > :01:54.Up until the late 1800s, thousands of the sea birds lived and bred on
:01:55. > :01:57.the island, until a rat invasion forced them to leave. For the past
:01:58. > :02:01.four years conservationists have been trying to bring the puffins
:02:02. > :02:08.back and have come up with sneaky plan that they hope will trick the
:02:09. > :02:16.sea birds in to returning. It is a simple speaker system. We have a
:02:17. > :02:22.puffin track and it is wired up to a solar panel. That will play from
:02:23. > :02:32.dawn to dusk the call of the puff out to sea. It seems almost
:02:33. > :02:37.immediately there was an impact from the speaker system. That has been
:02:38. > :02:41.the case at other sites. Next, how many of you have an old
:02:42. > :02:46.video game at home that you don't play any more? If so, what have you
:02:47. > :02:49.done with it? Thrown it in the bin? Recycled it? What about burying in
:02:50. > :02:52.the desert? It might sound a bit extreme, but that's what happened to
:02:53. > :03:00.thousands of copies of what's been dubbed the worst game ever made!
:03:01. > :03:05.Nel's been digging in to this one. The gaming industry is worth about
:03:06. > :03:08.?40 billion worldwide. It's been big business since the 1980s and these
:03:09. > :03:12.were some of the favourite titles back then. But they weren't all hits
:03:13. > :03:16.and this was thought to be one of the worst of all time. ET was a huge
:03:17. > :03:19.blockbuster which came out in 1982 and people wanted to cash in on the
:03:20. > :03:24.film's success. Games developers Atari designed and made the ET video
:03:25. > :03:28.game in just a few weeks at a cost of over 20 million dollars. But it
:03:29. > :03:38.was a massive flop. So just how bad is this game? I've got one here to
:03:39. > :03:45.test it out with a gaming expert. Why is it such a flop. A few
:03:46. > :03:52.reasons. It is extremely repetitive first of all. You are flicks back
:03:53. > :04:01.between the same screens. It does not really represent the film. At
:04:02. > :04:05.the time it was reported that millions of copies were taken into
:04:06. > :04:09.the new Mexico Desert in America and buried. Now more than 30 years on a
:04:10. > :04:15.team of documentary maker said on the site and after a few hours of
:04:16. > :04:20.digging they found a huge stash of these rejected games. It's thought
:04:21. > :04:23.there could be hundreds of thousands more copies of the game still buried
:04:24. > :04:27.in the New Mexico desert. It's a pretty unusual way to get rid of a
:04:28. > :04:35.something you don't want, although I rather like it! Next, wave goodbye
:04:36. > :04:38.to the Stafford tower. This 21-storey block in Birmingham was
:04:39. > :04:42.turned into eleven thousand tonnes of rubble over the weekend to make
:04:43. > :04:45.way for a new park. Demolition workers say it was one of the
:04:46. > :04:49.trickiest jobs they've have ever done in a city centre. That's all
:04:50. > :04:52.for now. I'm back here just before seven with news on Mount Everest,
:04:53. > :04:58.the UK's worst cricket team and why these guys are on the loose in South
:04:59. > :05:00.Wales. See you soon. Good buy.
