So, all this ass kicking work is going to earn me enough money to get a platform. I'd love to get an Xbox, since so many of us have xboxes and play a lot of fun games with them, but I also want a Blu ray player, so it's probably going to be a PS3.

At least we'll be able to do some left 4 dead hopefully.

You could have my old XBox if you want it, Sean, but I suspect you'd prefer a 360, right? If you do end up getting a PS3 and would also like an original XBox, you're welcome to it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Why won't the wii play DVDs? We're going to have to get a device to switch back and forth if we want to play DVDs in the living room again. So lame.

Kristin, I don't think you can merge the data. The 360 sees the profiles as effectively two people.

It might have been better to have upgraded your own profile to a full Live account and just changed the name to one that was available on Live. If that was possible.

Starting a new profile pretty much precludes being able to use your previous profile's data.

ND has just informed me that that's exactly what he did, so it's not an issue. Yay him!

Oh, and if you guys play Left 4 Dead, let me know so I can join in.

Okay, back to things & stuff...

Oh, and Little Big Planet is a PS3 game, right?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sean, yep
