Transference is a tad strong. I think the reason some people give a shit can be attributed to recognition. You have you're achievements written down for future reference - It's nice to know that one day will come* where someone will unexpectedly jump out at you to quiz you're trophy abilities, and you will be able to provide evidence proving that you've got something in your locker.

 

*This unintentionally turned into a joke post highlighting the pointlessness of them again.

I've toned down in the Trophy whoring now. I'm even at 91% in ACII but can't really be arsed to get the last one or two Trophies. I would not have done that 3 months ago. I would have sat at my TV, playing until I had every last one of them. They are probably "floating in and out of my perception of importance" as DG puts it.

 

Having said that, I'm close to Platinum on MW2 and I know I will get it. So maybe its more about the game.....

I'm thinking of getting a few PS1 games, but the memory stick I currently have is full (only 32MB). Where's the cheapest place to get a decent sized one?

Well you definitely will get that ACII platinum, stop kidding yourself.

 

Maybe when they float back into my perception of importance?

For Iphone and touch users, a free app that lets you send your pictures over to the PS3 for viewing/copy etc. Wireless in XMB. :grin:

 

Its called iMediaShare

 

iMediaShare - If you have a PS3 or other UPnP device, you might be interested in pushing images wirelessly from your iPhone to it with this app. With this you can not only view images on your TV, but you can download them to devices like the PS3.

Works pretty well for me. Its one of the features that i was worried about not having when i got an iPhone!

Thing is it saves the hassle of plugging in a wire, which you probably wont carry. It like the wifi cameras which let you view pics without wires on the PS3. Handy when you need it or need ot do a quick slideshow. Now only if the Iphone camera were better :p

 

In other news. Yakuza 3 is coming to Europe on Disk! Sometime Marchish.

You really have to keep looking in fliers for electronics stores and wait for stuff like that to go on sale. It happens often enough that its worth waiting.

PSP GO £148.99 today only at HMV.com if anyone is interested.

 

 

Anyone?

 

Somebody might buy one now that it's only 20% above what the RRP should have been.

 

Oh, it's back to £200 on there. Cracking stuff.

Thats a Mark 2 you could get standard ones for cheaper. Mark 2 would give you faster load times.

 

Bear in mind you can also get M2 and just use adaptors to Pro Duo. Which is cheaper and compatible with PSP Go.

FPS games should have R1/L1 aim and shoot. Not, like Call of Duty Classic, R2/L2. It just screams of shoddy Xbox port.

 

Just thought I would share my thoughts with you.

Links nao, I can't see it. On it's own it's showing up as £36, which I was gonna order. So if I can save £6 and get TDK on Blu-Ray for free, I'll be having some of that.

If you go there it now says;

 

Sorry, this product no longer exists in our database.

 

There is a pick of the two together
