PSP camera doesn't like sunlight, garlic

Apr 8th 2007 11:31AM (Joystiq Playstation)
Years ago I took some clases, I learned how to use professional cameras and one of the first things we were told when handed cameras is: DO NOT POINT IT AT THE SUN!!!!! Why, It just screws up the camera...

So dont think this happend because you bought a cheap camera (ok maybe a fine camera could stand it more)... But direct sun light screws CCDs and other sensors (unlike SuperMan who actually get stronger!)

How much would you pay for an unpatched GTA?

Jan 29th 2007 10:11AM (Joystiq Playstation)
Oh, come on, rent it from GameFly, hope you get an unpatched copy! If not try and try again, I doubt they have the patched ones, since they bought mountains of it... I got mine that way, first rented it then bought it from them.... long time ago, but.... IM LOVING HOMEBREW!!!!

So you didn't buy the Burning Crusade

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time before I reach 60.

So is there anything that the expansion has for me?
I want to buy it if there is anything for me. I am not planning on playing other characters, Im happy building up my main character.

Jon Stewart blasts Congress' ignorance towards video games

Jun 22nd 2006 9:00PM (Joystiq)
Poor Video Gamers: Stupid and Criminals.

Good news. Bad news. The bad news is that, according to Representative Joseph Pitts, poor people become violent criminals simply by playing video games. The good news, according to representative Joseph Pitts, rich kids can play Grand Theft Auto and not become violent criminals. The comments from the Pennsylvania representative remind us how stupid poor people are, not because they are easily influenced by games, but because white collar crime is less dangerous and equally profitable, costing the US close to 300 billion a year.

On the one hand the video game industry must act responsible and create games that teach our kids how to grow to become NON-violent criminals like Jack Abramoff, and Kenneth Lay, or corrupt congressmen like Tom DeLay.

On the other hand we commend Representative Joseph Pitts for reminding us how stupid poor people are. I mean if they weren't stupid they wouldn't be poor. Given that the representative also opposes gay marriage maybe he will take a similar stance; rich homos may marry other rich homos but the poorer homos can't marry.

If you want to congratulate super representative Pitts (not related to Brad Pitt) write to:

Rep. Joseph Pitts
221 Cannon House Office Building
Washington, DC 20515
(1st Street and Independence Avenue)

202 225-2013 (fax)

PS. Joseph Pitts is also against net neutrality. Against campaign reform and he hates puppies, I think.

Sony: We don't need no stinkin' GTA

Jun 22nd 2006 11:32AM (Joystiq)
If the PS3 is not going to have GTA I will not buy a PS3, I waited until GTA was available for the PSP to buyit, and it was the first grat game for the PSP, not port.
Even if there is a period of exclusivity for the Xbox 360 I would delay my PS3 adoption.

Check my site: brooklyn22.com (some video game stuff, funny I hope)

NYTimes: games industry is taking a beating

Jun 20th 2006 10:53AM (Joystiq)
Well... The article also mentions that some people suggest to actually buy shares of the big companies, given that right now they are cheap and they are bound to go up next year.... The article mentions that the industry may repeat past trends of rebounding... So it is not all dark skies...

In Defense Of: Family Guy

Apr 9th 2006 10:43PM (AOL TV)
People often that movies or shows resamble videogames.... they dont know what they talk about...
Family Guy instead is closer to a cybertext, the humor in family guy is conected like links in a hypertext, what family guy does is step into a grey area that keeps elements of the old narrative structures and takes elements of other kind of newer structures often connected to electronic media...
Family Guy may not be genius but it is heralding a new era with a new kind of text, a new kind of narrative, a new style of communication, and the anounced web-only kinda talk show featuring family guy characters proves that point further... and well the 'evil monkey'... well that's genius...
