SSB Brawl Trailer With Gameplay Footage

Well the graphics don’t exactly blow me away, but I didn’t really expect them too. I was definitely excited to see some of Snake’s moves. Besides that I gotta say this looks like a good game, but just from this trailer I don’t see anything really innovative about it. See what you think.

In Sony We Trust

I was definitely starting to have my doubts about the PS3.  Doubts about the launch date, doubts about the price, and doubts about the processing power.  But I feel much more confident now because Sony has finally released some concrete information about their “computer.”  The only thing I’m still worried about is how good the games are going to be. Of course they look amazing and with the PS3’s processing power (<<click “smarter”), and the Blu-Ray disc’s unrivaled capacity (<<click “capacity”), I don’t see any reason why they can’t be better. But, the question is, has Sony lost it’s focus?  Are they so bent on making an all-in-one entertainment system that they’ve lost site of what should be their main goal: building a system that allows gaming to be fun, more realistic, and more intense.  I don’t think they anyone would disagree that the PS3 is going to be a very advanced, powerful, and feature-packed machine.  But, if the games aren’t any good, who cares how good my slideshows look?

My Little Shop of Photos

I recently acquired the program Photoshop CS2. No doubt most of you have heard the word Photoshop even if you are not familiar with the program. Some of the photographs you own have perhaps been “photoshopped.” The program itself is very expensive, about $600. Now let me say that I would never even consider paying $600 dollars for a computer program, seeing as the price of an average desktop computer is around that mark. I’ll let you figure out how I got it without paying $600, it shouldn’t take you too long. Don’t get me wrong, I understand how powerful and useful a tool like Photoshop is, but I can’t understand why Adobe would need to charge that much money to turn a profit. Maybe I’m being nieve, and I guess I should stop complaining about a price that I didn’t even pay. Photoshop is about what I expected it to be, jam-packed with tools and somewhat complicated. I haven’t had it for long, but I hope to get at least skilled enough to make professional-looking photos, collages, signatures for forums, and maybe some web page design as well.
