Insomniac Easter Eggs & PS3 Theme
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2010-07-15 18:56:31

For those who might not follow Insomniac Games on Facebook or Twitter, they mentioned an easter egg hunt that, once finished, will net you a PS3 theme. I did it a little while ago, and installed the theme. It's pretty cool.

Nashville's Flooding
A [Life Stuff] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2010-05-03 19:40:00 , updated 2010-05-03 19:54:04

I don't know if any of you have heard, but Middle Tennessee was pummeled with storms this past weekend, and they brought massive flooding. The town I live in is elevated enough to have suffered little to no flooding, but I work in West Nashville and it has sustained major, major flood damage. Most of Nashville has. The water has steadily been flowing out of the area (the water level dropped abo...

Welcome The New Guy

Just wanted to let you guys know that my friend Will started an account on Tawkn yesterday, the day he got his first PS3. He has FFXIII right now, but I believe I heard mention of Borderlands and Red Dead Redemption on the horizon. I'll let him expand on that...

Umbrella Tree is the band that my sister-in-law is in, and I love 'em. I figured I'd put up a few of their videos, for you guys to check out.

Bluetooth Sync Issue
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2009-12-02 17:32:13

Okay, this is definitely an issue. I know I have bee having major problems with my controllers connecting to the PS3. I just had to turn my system off and back on, FIVE TIMES, before any controller would connect.

Umm, okay...

I can't really be this bad at Puzzle Quest. Seriously. I'm looking at 22 wins...out of 78 matches.

I WANT To Love It...
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2009-10-06 20:18:18

...I really do, especially since I love the series, but PixelJunk Monsters frustrates me beyond belief. I'm horrible at it. I've never been past the second level (you know, the one after the training level!), because I couldn't "rainbow" it, or whatever that's called. I fired it up today, to try for a trophy challenge. I tried the very first one, got frustrated, and shut it off.

Question For the Experienced...
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2009-09-19 23:24:39

So, I'm wondering what I need to do, to prepare for turning my PS3 over to my local Gamestop tomorrow. I have a fairly good idea of what to do with my new system, but I'll detail that another time, maybe after it's done. Regarding my soon-to-be-surrendered system:

Game Trade-Ins
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2009-09-19 06:52:02

I've never really been the type to cycle through games, trading them in after a short time to take advantage of high trade-in values. I understand the practice, but have instead generally been careful in what games I purchased, assuming I'd be adding them to my (rather permanent) library.

Oh No, Oh No, Oh No...!

My PS3 is having a problem, and it started last night. I can start it up and do everything fine, for about 45 mins. I've been playing CoD:WaW, and after about 3 matches, it locks up on the loading screen (my guess being, as soon as it has to access the disc again).

'Tis The Season...To Rob And Steal
A [Life Stuff] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2008-11-22 22:25:59 , updated 2008-11-22 23:35:20

I work at a theater and, in the last 2 hours, we have had three reports of theft. First, a woman found her car broken into and something stolen. Not 5 minutes after the cops left from dealing with that, an employee found her window busted out and her purse gone. We had some employees walk the parking lot, checking for broken windows, while waiting for the cops to return, and found none. However...

I Forgot How Cool Nature Is

So, a few weeks ago, my wife and I took a week-long vacation. My buddy Dozer and his wife drove down from Michigan to join us. It was a 2-year wedding anniversary celebration for both couples. Dozer and his wife got married a few weeks before us, and he drove down to be the best man in my wedding.

If Only I Knew Anything About Football...
A [Life Stuff] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2008-10-21 22:23:27

So, apparently I just got done BSing around with Chris Johnson, one of the Tennessee Titans. He was with his girlfriend and another couple. He came up to me, messing around, and said "she's trying to steal toilet paper!" I just laughed and said I didn't see anything (pretending to block my eyes). He asked, "weren't you the guy that let me in late one night?" I did remember doing that, and was p...

Dead Space Got In My Head
A [Gaming] blog posted by Jason LaFave at 2008-10-19 16:23:59

As A.D.Olson said in his impressions, Dead Space isn't scary, per se, but it does deliver creepiness in spades. If you're looking to be creeped out in a way that's fun, and still be able to notice how freakin' amazing the game looks, and how badass your weapons are, definitely try it out.
