This little lad is a bit different to the normal little lad you are used to seeing on these pages....this time he's being published from Daddies new PS3.
There is a lot of talk on which is better...XBOX or PS....and I'm not going down that road. I will say that I am an engineer and I am very thorough before I buy or adopt new technology....and I have the PS3. Go figure. I'm not a brain dead XBOX or PS fan that supports their chosen console, I let the facts and figures do it for me.
So....why mention this on the sometimespace page? Simple.....When I was growing up thirty something years ago there were no video games. When I was about 6 or 7 my dad bought back a console from his travels. It was a black and white unit that had some hard to pronounce German name. It had 3 games...all using paddles to bounce a (square) ball backwards and forwards. the controller was a box with a wheel on it that just turned to make the onscreen bat go up and down. It was the best thing ever and well advanced for the time....
When Alex hits 30 years, what will he be using? I went from a pixel stick and ball to the photo-realistic world of HD games. That's one hell of a development. Even going back 10 years the games were good, but not brilliant - and we had no idea of how good they would shortly become.
Maybe he'll look back at this and compare it with his latest gadget and think how backwards we were in the early 2000's...
