PS3 WHOOOOOO

Hey everybody, just a quick note to check in...as it happens, I am making this post from my new PlayStation 3. (Yes, I gave in and got one...I suck.) Anyway, more to follow later...hopefully a link to some vaca pictures, if I can get them uploaded before rathershady comes up to visit tomorrow.

(no subject)

POTTERDAMMERUNG BEGINS

(Link leads to crazy people horrified by the new Harry Potter book; spoilers, obviously, so avoid it until you've read the book, but then go and enjoy vitriol like the following (actual quote): I could fucking strangle her!!! How could she do that to us?? Write this fucking heap of shit, assassinate her characters, her plot lines and pretend this is the greatest thing ever?!?!! She betrayed us, her loyal readers, her loyal fans, and her own creation!! She's ruined the world and characters she created, she's raped them and destroyed them, I can't believe this fucking nightmare is real!!!

...o rly?

Anyway, as I mentioned, I seem to have somehow wound up the owner of a PS3. But it's not my fault! When they price-dropped the 60GB model, they mentioned that they were discontinuing it and its hardware emulation of PS2, and moving just to 80GB ones with software PS2 emulation (and given how well software emulation has worked with Xbox/Xbox 360, especially for less well-known games like those I play, that's probably not a good thing). And since I knew I DO want a PS3 eventually, and will want to play PS2 games on it, I bit the bullet and got a 60GB with hardware emulation while I still could.

It helped that I spent way less than I had planned on in England, so I had money to spare.

Now back to reading Potter wank. I'll leave you with this delightful quote, again taken straight from the discussion page I linked:

ACCIO ROWLING!!! So that I can KILL HER!

Ahhh, the sweet smell of Potteritis in the morning...
