Looking through Wikipedia's entry on the PSP leaves me a little confused - are games, in reality, region-locked or not? I see an ominous "2" above a globe on UK PSP games.. and it then goes on to claim that while games aren't locked, multiplayer games do have to all be of the same region. Ick! Can anyone confirm this? How's the DS in this regard?


'Roo fans might like to peek at the artwork in Killeroo's LJ.

Heh! "Inspired by the book, director-producer Kenneth Johnson wrote an adaptation titled Storm Warnings, in 1982. The script was presented to NBC, for production as a television mini-series, but the NBC executives rejected the initial version, claiming it was too 'cerebral' for the average American viewer. To make the script more marketable, the American fascists were re-cast as anthropophage aliens, taking the story into the realm of science fiction. The new, re-cast story was the mini-series V, which premiered on May 3, 1983."

Mario Kart's really changed..

Finally, a graphics tablet is mine: an Intuos3 6x8. ^_^ Or will be, on Wednesday; maybe I'll actually be able to add new artwork to my FurAffinity page, after an embarrassingly long break in new creativity. (Though FA certainly has its share of bugs to squash.. re-uploading Canine Surprise left it without a thumbnail, and wouldn't accept any changes to the metadata. Then there's that irksome matter of non-visual uploads all receiving a generic icon, with no indication of the story/song/poem's title or author. Still, it seems to be gradually getting back to normal)

I'm looking for a quadband phone.. any recommendations? The RAZR V3 looks tempting - thin, light, good screen, and happy with OS X. Not sure yet what its data capabilities are, though - something compatible with 3G/EVDO services would be handy. ('Course, that also entails finding suitable plans from UK and US carriers; US cellcos are notorious for long contracts, if they even let you buy a SIM rather than the phone from them)

Aha! I should soon be able to watch the first episode of Life on Mars, and the first in the documentary series Iraq: The Bloody Circus. (And then there's The Planets Revisited..)

I thought this user icon, spotted in a posting by azurelunatic, might appeal to funos, amongst others:

And OS X Update 10.4.4, QuickTime 7.0.4, and iTunes 6.0.2 are now fresh out of the oven and in Software Update.

Shame about their habits and politics - I always rather liked the aliens, and never really saw why they insisted on maintaining human disguise even on their ships. ^_^

We need more furry sci-fi. How about C J Cherryh's Chanur saga? Plenty of scope for action and space battles for the mainstream audience, and lots of interesting aliens.. the k'n'n'n would be fun to bring to the big screen, though. ^_^;
