I do it all, i even went out and bought a wireless printer so i could print from it...
Not realizing at the time the PS3 isn't compatiable with HP...
I still cant print...



I always look for a woman who has a tattoo. I see a woman with a tattoo, and I’m thinking, okay, here’s a gal who’s capable of making a decision she’ll regret in the future.

I was just flipping through the icons today and started thinking about it. As much as I use my PS3 i am really not tapping into it's full potential. I still use it off a cable modem instead of wifi, plan on changing that sometime real soon though. So far I have 11 full movies saved to my hardrive, 36 episodes of assorted tv shows, I have 8 games for PS3(4 of which are exclusive) I have like 20 demos, I rented a few movies off of PSN, downloaded an episode of Qore, use pictures i have saved as background, got 249 music files on it and much more...

Switching from the absolute reliability of ethernet cables to wifi just to use more of the PS3's capabilities is Madness. If you have wires already in place, go with them.

 

I only have one cord tho, there are 2 PS3s, and a laptop in my house, we all have to share the one cable modem (even though its mine really). I want the wifi so we all can get on at the same time. Maybe then I can play some online games with my bro with his PS3 on and stuff.

simply opening up my possibilities.

You are so right! I severely apoligize. How did I forget one of the PS3's finest suits.

Thanks for reminding me

Editing it now...

Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
