Last weekend, I upgraded the hard drive in my PS3; it was extremely fast and easy procedure. It now has a 320 GB drive, up from the factory 80 GB. What with downloaded games, save files, DLC (including lots of Rock Band tracks) and the inevitable few game trailer videos, the drive only had 7 GB left. Now we should never have to worry about space on ( Read more... )

My relationship with video games began early. When exactly my family got the original NES, I'm not sure, but it was sometime before I started Kindergarten in 1990, and may have been as early as Christmas 1988, which is when the well-known Mario/Duck Hunt bundle was released. We had some totally awesome games, like Ninja Turtles Arcade Game, Super ( Read more... )

So, I hadn't played WoW since last March, but I got an email last week offering me 7 free days on my account. I've been pretty much ok planning on never coming back to the game this time - I just no longer had the same drive to play - unlike previous times I had quit for temporary reasons (like school) and had always intended on coming back at some ( Read more... )

Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first song is the title.

I have taken some poetic license with it.

Oh my god, livejournal is 10 years old? There's a banner ad here notifying me. Goes to check... OK, I started with LJ in 2001. I thought it may have been earlier, but that's still a long while ago ( Read more... )

We want to upgrade the RAM on Megan's desktop (it's a few years old). It's a Dell Dimension 8400 and currently has two sticks of 512 MB PC2-3200 DDR2 in it. When we got her laptop, we got a $70 Dell giftcard, so we're just going to use that and dump 4 GB worth in it and have that be the last thing we do to that computer (barring failures ( Read more... )

From a friend on facebook:

Is Time an Illusion?Understanding the true nature of time may be the key reconciling general relativity and quantum mechanics. It's looking like the answer may be that time is not a fundamental, irreducible concept, but rather something that we perceive because of the macroscopic consequences of reality ( Read more... )

Well, I just finished Killzone 2 and... *shrug*. I'm not saying it's bad - it's a fun, solid fps. The graphics really are superb (it's half of what sold me on it from the demo), good physics, etc. But I really don't think it deserves as much hype as it has gotten, and I've recently played better shooters anyway ( Read more... )
