firmware adds much needed feature

So the new ps3 firmware is up.  Why is that so exciting?  Because HULU.com is working!  I am streaming Fringe onto my old junky analog tv right now.  The catch is, hulu is only playing like 12-24 frames a second.  It can get a bit jumpy.    I assume that is b/c the ps3 has some of the slowest harddrives ever created on the  inside.  I am just excited that I can have fullscreen video on my tv and I can have my laptop 100% dedicated to surfing.

I will say that I am a big fan of the wackiness of Fringe.  In todays episode, they imprinted a mans electronic brain signiture onto some pidgeons, and had the homing pidgeons fly around New York until they found the suspect.  WHAT?  Thats the awesome craziness that comes with the show.

I also figured I am going to holdoff on Little Big Planet.  I can't think about how that game can be fun in the long run.  Do you know why?  Because you can't shoot!  How can you have a great platformer without shooting?  Time will tell, but just jumping can't be that awesome.

I am excited about Fallout 3.  If my wallet wasn't on the otherside of the house I would pre-order it right now.  With McCain being as out of touch with people as he is, and Obama seeming like a smug criminal pawn, it won't be too long when we will all have to know how to live in the desert wasteland.
