Complaining and praising… Whatever is required

Street Fighter 4… OK, you win

Thursday, July 17th, 2008 Posted in Games | No Comments »

I know I wasn't keen on SF4 in the past, and until very recently, I just couldn't get excited. I think this is mainly due to the fact that, ever since Street Fighter 2, every ...

Sony Press Conference

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008 Posted in Games | No Comments »

Finally, the last of the press conferences. Sony's conference was about as long as Microsoft's (that is, too long), but it was full of hugely impressive games, and some minor announcements. Of the three, I found it to be the ...

Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe — All kinds of awesome

Sunday, July 13th, 2008 Posted in Games | No Comments »

And here's the proof. I was under the impression that the last Mortal Kombat (Annihilation) was to be the last MK title, but it seems that it was possibly just the last of the standard ...

Fallout 3 teaser trailer

Sunday, July 13th, 2008 Posted in Games | No Comments »

Yep, a new teaser has become available for Fallout 3. It doesn't show any gameplay, but -- like the last one -- it's full of charismatic bags of awesomeness. It really makes me hope importing won't be as difficult as ...

PS3 update 2.41 available now in Oz

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008 Posted in Games | 1 Comment »

Update 2.40, which was released last week, caused a fair bit of controversy when a whole bunch of PS3 users complained that it 'bricked' their consoles. Not me, mine worked like a charm... But I won't discredit the fact that ...

PSN: Movement. Worth watching?

Sunday, July 6th, 2008 Posted in Movies/TV, Music | 2 Comments »

If you don't know what it is, you probably don't have a PS3, or it's not connected to the 'net. Movement is something that suddenly appeared on PSN (for me at least, I knew nothing about it until the advertisement ...

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008 Posted in Games | No Comments »

OK, thought I'd better follow up on the last PS3 update post. The Trophies video was released pretty much straight after the last one, and it has since been announced that update 2.40 will be ...

What’s set for PlayStation 2.40 Update?

Monday, June 30th, 2008 Posted in Games | 1 Comment »

Not the most interesting video, I must agree, but if you are kinda hoping to find out what is coming soon in the new update for the PS3 firmware, it might be worth watching. Yeah, I watched it the whole ...
