Want inspiration for what to do initially as a new PS3 owner? Step right this way… I’ve jotted some points down covering various areas that might be of use, and tips that I’ve found helpful to get up and running quickly, but also to provide the most enjoyment:
The first switch-on- immediately get [...]
LocoRoco 2 free PlayStation Store Goodies- Yup, you heard it- free LocoRoco 2 goodies! They’re starting off with PSP wallpapers, and there might be some other cool stuff on the way. Just look at that MuiMui on a rocking horse. Way. Too. Freaking. Cute.

I don’t really know what I was expecting from the PSP version of this great game, but I fancied killing a few birds with one stone: using the PlayStation Store naitively on the PSP, then buying and running a downloadable game.
Before I get ahead of myself, I’ll just give you the lowdown. Super Stardust HD [...]

You can think of this as part 2 of my previous post, ‘An insight into how faulty PS3s are dealt with‘. That article dealt with the straightforward replacement of a faulty console and the issues surrounding warranties. This article deals with backing up the data of your PS3, and when things go wrong…
Hello there everyone, I’ve been contacted by the good guys at PlayStation about Shoot! Without further ado, I present the info straight from the horse’s mouth:
I was just browsing your blog and thought that this would be of interest to you and your readers. It’s an online project for PlayStation 3 called Shoot!.
It brings six [...]
Those of you who visit the European PlayStation site from your home country (in my case, the UK PlayStation site) regularly may have noticed another section of the site that has quietly sneaked its way onto the menu: ‘PSN’. Quite innocuous you might think, but this new section is quite a significant addition to the [...]
PlayStation Network matches Xbox LIVE user base- Sweet. Never underestimate the lure of free service and content (mostly).
New “Department” at the PlayStation Store: The Capcom Storefront- I’m loving what the team is doing for the PlayStation Store. I admit that I’ve forgotten whether this is applying to all versions of the Store, or just the US version. My brain’s scrambled these days! I’m particularly impressed with all the dev replies in the [...]

There have been a couple of articles that have piqued my interest recently; one from Rockers Delight (excellent blog, go read now if you haven’t already done so) and another from PS3 Fanboy. Rather than address each point separately, I’d like to make this one big article on my thoughts about brands in the games [...]
New Media Manager for PSP- I’m going to have to check this out soon, especially with access to the PlayStation Store now integrated into it. Interesting that they’ve finally made it free (the standard version, anyway), which I’ve been asking for a good couple of years now. Bravo Sony.
Premium Themes on the PlayStation Store- I suppose new content like this is good as there’s always going to be someone out there with money burning a hole in their pocket. Personally though, themes don’t appeal to me. I like the clean, elegant XMB that is there as default. I’ve even got rid of my [...]
Downloading Warhawk- Yup, I’m seriously considering downloading Warhawk from the PlayStation Store. It’s about £10 cheaper, and I’ll be able to launch the game immediately as it’ll be on the hard drive. No headset though? I’m not particularly bothered about that at the moment.
Welcome to my personal blog where I ramble on about PS3-related gaming matters and other snippets that interest me.
