Ups and downs and things unseen

So my last blog spot was a catalogue of woes regarding the October PS+ games. Sadly, November hasn't been much better. Positive news first: I have got a First Time Play for Dungeon Siege 3 up on the channel: Which does at least mean I've got it up whilst it's the November Games with Gold freebie for the Xbox Live Gold subscribers out there. So far better than Dirt 3 (for which I have no space on the console HDD to download), Walking Dead Episode 1 (downloaded and untouched) or Battlestation Pacific (video recorded but is unlikely to be uploaded now) However, for the PS3, I'm wondering if we'll manage to get any of this months games up and out. Let's see, we've got Beyond Good and Evil HD - which I have played previously so wouldn't technically be a First Time Play. I'm also not certain that the opening to that game would do it justice in a 20 min or so video. Then we have Invizimals on Vita and The Walking Dead Episode 2...

Hardware woes

The monthly update - a month or so late ... Meh, I'm sure you all will forgive me I have been noticing recently the things around gaming on the consoles that would make things easier. If PS3 could enable much more background loading, that would be nice. If it could also provide a better breakdown of the contents of the hard drive, that would be another welcome addition for an update. While the Xbox 360 allows me to see exactly how much room is taken up by games, videos, demos, etc at once, the PS3 only allows for 'all the memory' or item by item, which is very dull. And I remember news stories back when Home was first introduced about being able to have your trophies onshow for friends to wander through and look at. How much longer will that take? I kinda like the idea of having a gallery of my trophies that I can walk through and examine in detail. Some point soon, Home team? Talking of Home, I am liking that companies are bringing out Second Life style mini areas for game...
