What I’m playing on the PS3

Fat Princess = Lots of fun. Well worth $15
UFC: Undisputed = Still playing it, was well worth the money if you like virtually punching people in the face. Much better than the sorriness that is now EA’s Fight Night (stay away from the new version of that crap).
Playstation Home: Not a game per se, but it’s a steaming pile of poo. The absolute best thing about it is that it uninstalls itself quickly. Why it needs 3.5 gigs of HD space is beyond me. You might as well have 3.5 gigs of zero’d out files and that would be more enjoyable.

Also, after nearly 5 years(!!!), maybe there will be something to play on the PSP. Gran Turismo comes out on Oct 1, and I can’t imagine it being a good driving sim with the PSP controls, but fingers crossed.

Power Consumption Page

It appears that my Power Consumption Page has become the most popular page on my site. It’s kinda sad because it’s so ugly. Perhaps I should give it a little green theme. When I first made it I spent a fair amount of time looking at wiki software because I wanted people to be able to contribute the power usage of their own devices to the site. So far nobody has yet added any data. I’m thinking now that it’d be better to make it a regular web app.

never too late

There’s a nice little letter at the end of “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” which has been sent by Bard Pitt’s character to his daughter. I felt it’s appropriate for the start of 2009:

For what it’s worth it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit; start whenever you want; you can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it.

I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you are proud of. And if you find that you are not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

Happy New Year!
