The Blog for the Sports Gamer

1. The new PS3 firmware is out. It includes DVD upscaling (HDMI required) and upscaling for all PSOne and PS2 games. Some of the comparison screenshots that I’ve seen look pretty damn impressive. The PS3 appears to be the little console that could right now. Each month the firmware adds another neat feature, but due to the price of the system, not many people get to check it out.

One of the other features that I saw that was enabled in the 1.8 firmware was 1080P/24 output for Blu-Ray. The guys at AVS-Forum seem to be extremely happy about that. Apparently this makes the PS3 one of the best, if not the the best Blu-Ray player on the market. You’d have to take their word for it though… I probably wouldn’t be able to see the difference.

2. I still haven’t seen Blake’s performance with Doug E Fresh from Idol last night, but from the stories I read it was either “of the hook” or “off the chain.” From my knowledge of street lingo that means it was good… I think.

3. I had a kickass save in hockey last night. It was one of those saves that I’ve been wanting to make ever since I started playing goalie. When you’re able to do something that you’ve seen the pros do on TV, it’s a pretty damn cool feeling. Of course, I still let in 4 for the night, but I’m pretty damn happy with that one great save.

4. There is no number 4
