Does anyone know
how to make a Vista PC sync with a PS3 so's I can watch things using the PC as a media centre? I got some lovely shiny discs in the post today and want to watch them on the PS3 but the PC isn't co-operating and I know my laptop used to be able to do it!

(also need to get flatmate off the PS3 first...)

I'm really not sure to be honest.
I do hope you're not offended, but I have an Xbox 360, but the DVD drive doesn't work.

Just to get the convo going, what sort of games does everyone like? I love Peggle and Portal.

Not even slightly
Used to have a 360 - or rather my flatmate did - which he traded in so we could get more PS3 games.

Very fond of Guitar Hero World Tour and LittleBigPlanet. Oh, and Ratchet and Clank is full of win.

SuperMatt owned the working 360, World Tour and Rockband2 stuff.
I really liked playing that Paramore song "That's what you get".

LBP looks like amazing fun, I really like the idea of it.

Ohhh, Mirror's Edge was ace too.

I has seen a photo of SuperMatt. He went to my uni.
LBP rocks but most of the functionality is in its online play; you can't complete it unless you go online. Making your own levels is fucking awesome though.

Unless you have Media Centre as your operating system
I don't think it will work.

Fucking Microsoft!

it will,

It will
A lot of media centre functionality is built in to Vista.

Pfft
Where's that ruler..
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:39, Reply)

Here.

Excellent
Now hold still. This may sting slightly.

*holds still* Just slightly?
Surely not.

Hmm
Shall I tell them what's on the discs?
