A Sonnet to my PS3

[Shacklebolt]

Having just finished my class on Shakespeare's sonnets, and approaching 1 year of ownership of my PS3, I'm feeling rather poetical (I own a 360 as well).

Oh PS3, why dost thou tease me so?
More power than a gamer dares to dream,
And yet, though I have searched both high and low,
Exclusive titles a few and far between,
And when we see them - I mean, come on: Lair?
Or Heav'nly Sword? It is no Bioshock,
No Gears of War, and to Halo, it can't compare,
If gaming's a sea, PS3's still in the dock.
And yet, somehow, I manage to love it so.
No red rings of death, and lovely interface,
And Blu-Ray is quite neat, I'll have you know,
And the visualizer always brightens up my place.
And yet, third in my heart, you might just be -
You are not yet a 360 or Wii.

Shacklebot needs to get out more I suspect ;):p

Ha - or sleep at more appropriate hours. Just finished wrapping Christmas presents.

^ I have to do that soon. I forgot to buy ribbon & tags though and the thought of driving to get them is filling me with dread. Think the 'wrapping' will be very basic this year....

Happy christmas to you anyway matey :)

"Half a PS3, philosophically, must ipso facto half not be. But half the PS3 has got to be vis-à-vis its entity - d'you see? But can a PS3 be said to be or not to be an entire PS3 when half the PS3 is not a PS3 due to some ancient injury?"

Halo, it can't compare,


I don't know about all of that but hey to each there own.

Girlfriend(s) come in handy when you start to feel all poetic towards hardware ;)

Eggnog is great with vodka!

A stagnant and uninterested sneeze from 16 years ago is a good comparison for Halo 3.

[Shacklebolt]

yeah yeah. Girlfriend! I think the picture is innocuous enough - don't mean it to be racy.

Overly defensively yours,

the ps3 has a visuslizer? Neat!

[Shacklebolt]

Yep, it's pretty sweet too. For the first few months of ownership, the visualizer is mainly what I used it for.
