What the Henkel, MrE?

Once upon a time a young (scratch that, grey haired wise man) went and bought a shiny new toy to replace some cables going across the living floor as a hiden attempt to make people trip and fall (yes I did have a webcamera installed to catch the moment…). Anyway the shiny new black thing was quickly installed with a few new grey hairs and a few bumps along the way. So how has the story progress since the last victory?

Singstar was played and enjoyed and connected to the credit card a few more songs were bought, nice game…..lacking in songs though, why aren’t all the PS2 songs there? WHY!? (it was easy to buy new songs however…but the microphones were the same as for PS2…so now we have four microphones. We are eagarly awaiting the time to do battle with four teams….;)

Assassin’s creed my lattest addiction is over, finito, finished, game over. It was lovely while it lasted but now I must put it to rest and move on. So I am now looking for a new addiction unless I return to my old one…my old lover, my friend of many enjoyable hours. But it can’t be enjoyed in bed, so it will not be the same! The end of ass’n'ass left me wondering so I had to google the ending in order to understand (it was all setup for a sequel….or more to it…a threesome of games). Anyway here is a link that explains the ending (contains spoilers..). The game also has some flaws…I did enjoy playing it but I will most likely not play it again…each mission can pretty much be done in only one way. Here is a nice article that explains the flaws….the five things

So what will I now use the PS3 for, it is rather nice to look at! The intended purpose of the PS3 was to act as a Media Center it is does that job with no problem, just queue up the movies you wish to see and download them to the PS3 and then do something else (like play ass’n'ass) and voila the movies are downloaded. It even remember were you were in the movie (if you have to leave while watching). So what are the misstakes?

1. We bought singstars with micronphones, hence we now have four microphones (we did ask if PS3 was compatible with PS2 microphones). So were were tricked!
2. BluRay remote…not really needed the ordinary handler handles the fast forward / skip functions nicely as well, pure waste!
3. Extra handler…actually not so bad. In the final battle (long one) I got the message, handler is running low on battery, one more minute to go! Quit playing so near the end? NO WAY JOSE! Quickly grab the second handler (freshly charged) reconfigure it and voila back to the stabing / hacking / slashing….(lots bad guys in my way….I was doing my thing like rambo on a bad day with speed!)
4. Small harddrive…only 40 GB but you can buy and install a bigger one (2.5″ size) even instructions how to replace the old drive for a larger one…so no biggie!

So overall best buy of the month…;)
