I have no doubt that one day, the PS3 will be able to make coffee and if you latch your bicycle chain onto it you won’t have to peddle.

Sony has now given the PS3 the ability to edit videos and upload them to a shared network. You can also upload your photos to the same shared network, which from this I gather a Facebook app isn’t too far behind.

…Yup, I just checked and I was right. All this for the low price of free, again.

There’s nothing like owning something that gets better with age- something that Apple has no clue about. And there’s nothing better than complimentary upgrades. This is what sticks out in my mind: there was nothing wrong with the PS3 when it first came out. What I mean by that is it did its job as a gaming console and a bluray player. Then Sony was nice enough to add in all these wonderful features for free.

Apple screws up the iPhone 4 by making the part that you touch the most the antenna, and then spits on you by selling you a rubber skin for $30. The least they could do to cover up their mistake was to include the rubber skin for free. And don’t say “well, some of the phones” bull. Every iPhone 4 I’ve come into contact with so far has that problem. Show me an iPhone that doesn’t have that problem and only then I’ll believe the rumor that Apple is apparently trying to spread.

$30 for a condom for your iPhone. If you’re so dumb that you think that’s not Apple ripping you off, you should be buried so you can’t reproduce.

Good job, Sony. Another cool new feature that cost me nothing. And shame on you, Apple.

I’ve actually owned one of these for half a year now but never really used it that much until recently. Recently that is, when I bought Gran Turismo 5, Mobile, for PSP.

Very likely I have a disease that causes me to buy gizmos that do things I can’t even imagine myself using (and you would then think an iPad would be perfect for me- but I’m not that ill). As far as I know, the new Gran Turismo series is the only driving simulation that judges drifting. And as a prelude to the upcoming (upcoming?) Gran Turismo 5 for PS3, it’s more complete than Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.

800 cars.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I do believe that’s more cars than any Gran Turismo- more cars than any racing game in history. I didn’t think it’s possible to fit 800 cars in a game less than 1gb. The only thing is you can’t access all 800 cars at any one time. There’s an entirely new method for purchasing cars and depending on what type of automobile consumer you are, you’ll either love it or hate it.

If you’re like most of us average-income car enthusiasts, the game’s limited car offerings each day simulates our real life hunt for deals on craigslist. If you’re a rich snob who prefers the unlimited options at dealerships, prepare to be confused. Each day in the game (advanced by your activities) presents 4 completely random manufacturers, each with their own limited offerings. While to the rich blokes, this may seem incredibly stupid, it’s quite entertaining to us humble folk.

Although it is sometimes crushing when Ferrari comes to town and you’re 100 bucks short of an Enzo, it does encourage you to keep racing and save up in hopes Ferrari will stroll in one day again. What is strange, however, is there doesn’t seem to be any option of selling your car. To most car collectors, that won’t really matter but it still bugs me that I can’t junk the 2001 GTi that was free. It really does sort of ruin the nature of the collection when there’s a $4,000 car parked next to AMG’s and Alfa Romeo’s. The least they could’ve done was give me a GTi with a nice color.

Ultimately, for car enthusiasts, this is a console seller. And that goes for me, too- seeing as I haven’t used this console until now. Only thing now is the actual Gran Turismo 5 and the fulfillment of everyone’s expectations (AI, damage).
