Play Station 3

i kinda feel like a punk talking about new cool shit i either purchase or am gifted. well, not a total punk. i recently received a play station 3 as a gift from one scott mitchell for helping him out on his website – iamaudi.com

he candidly asked me one day on the phone what do you want… what can i do for you? and I said well, i kinda want to get my hands on a play station 3 and he said done. – good man scott, good man. he went out and got me the 160gb model. he went all out.

but why ps3? you aren’t even a true gamer? – good point. in fact i have used the ps3 every night for the last 3 nights and i have yet to play a single game on it. the software platform built into this box allows me to ping my machines around my place and pull in media to my television. if i want to look at wedding photos with my wife, all i have to do is turn on my ps3 and my television. super duper! the only catch is that i had to purchase a small piece of software from a group called null river that allows me to specify what files I am willing to share. it is only $20 for the software and they also offer it for the xbox 360.

last night i drove out to fred meyer and purchased my very first blu ray movie. what movie you ask? tropic thunder – if you haven’t seen it then see it. the cast is flawless.

Tropic Thunder

i was so excited when scott gave me the ps3 that i felt like this brilliant dysfunction child in the video below.

they are just puppets braw… quit being a fuk.

happy friday internet tornado. cheers to a declining economy and clear skies… with chem trails of course.

oh of course you have to rub that in my face! thats exactly what my bf wants for xmas..well the 80gb one, but still. I do NOT have $400 for that business! although, if santa brought him that, I probably wouldn’t see him again for a solid year.

*can you stream netflix movies on it? I think you can with the 360..

Sounds fun! Love that you’re not a gamer… When my husband got the ORIGINAL XBOX, he did the same thing- figured out what he could do with it other than play games. It’s all about getting use out of the machine, right? Game on! Or not…
