Saw it Sunday.  Liked it a lot.  I saw the few reviewers who gave it negative reviews mostly complained it was a bridge movie to the finale.  I honestly have no problem with that given that the finale is guaranteed.  As the movies are meant to be enjoyed as a series, I can't see faulting the filmmakers for treating it as such.

They're very easy to access.  Once you've beaten the first group of levels, you'll be able to access community levels from the menu below the center planet.  There are a bunch of search features now that I haven't played with much.  But my daughter plays constantly.  She's 7.  There are some levels that are bloody/scary, but they're pretty uncommon.  LBP allows you to report obscene levels, so you really don't stumble across them often.  Other than a couple bloody levels, I haven't come across anything I'd keep her from playing.

You can choose to play any community level by yourself, or online with whoever might be trying to play the level at the time.  I haven't run into any trolls or profane people online, but if that's a concern you can always have him play on his own (or with you!).

Thanks Bill for the link. I'm trying to get either one of these systems in a budget for a home theater system as a media extender to my home server. The PS3 takes away the need to buy a blu-ray but the 360 seems to work as a more complete media extender. However, I can easily change out the HDD on the PS3 for extra homebrew software.

I haven't played with it, but there's a "Media Server" option under both Music and Video.  I assume if you have a media server, you can detect it with the PS3 and stream whatever's on there...

OK, here's what you need:  http://reviews.digitaltrends.com/guide/130/playstation-3-media-server-setup

By the way, I wonder what kind of homebrew games and emulators I can get for the ps3. I know I can program the 360 with the toolkits I have here at work. With my Dreamcast, I could emulate anything.

You can run Linux on the PS3, so your emulation capabilities will be pretty extensive.

New Lara Croft revealed!



I don't know... I kinda liked the old Lara Croft.

So I say to those conspiracy theorists, kiss my ass!      

It's obviously been Photoshopped.   

Eminem for me, too.  What a horrible, horrible album.

Yeah, it's got some brutal lyrics.  I just skip track 4.  Sick stuff.

Got Black Eyed Peas and Eminem recently.
