Like it always tends to be, I've got problems still with my consoles.  I just got my PS3 back because I had to send it in for maintenance.  The USB ports were malfunctioning and though one of the four worked, I wasn't up for going on living that way.  Still under warranty though, plus I was bustling through GoW2 anyway at the time, so I just whipped out my PS2 and finished it on that.  But my biggest issue is with my 360.  I've been trying to set-up a wired connection in my living room, which means I've had to cut and clip wire and drill holes in my walls in order to run the ethernet cord from the 360 (which has a simple adapter connecting the larger-headed 360 ethernet cable to the smaller-headed cable running through the walls to my router).  But, alas, the 360 won't connect onto XBL.  I don't get it either.  The cables are exactly the same, but just with different sized-heads.  But even more weird is when I plug the exact same 360 ethernet + homemade ethernet series into my PS3, the PS3 detects it easily!  Now, I have a wireless router, so I use wi-fi for my PS3, but there's just no way I'm shelling out $100 bucks for a Wi-fi adapter for the 360.  For now, I'm having to downgrade and play on my Funai 480p tv, but at least I get XBL detected in there.  Doesn't make any sense; all the wires are exactly the same, but the 360 just doesn't like my homemade cord.  I might just cut a new one and start over, but I just don't get why all these issues keep happening to me. 

Not really playing much right now, though I'm considering dusting off my DS with Pokemon later this month, but the next big games for me are Mass Effect, Lair, Heavenly Sword, Bioshock, and Warhawk.  Too bad I won't be around for the fall and winter, plus all of 08 and the majority of 09 (mission), so hopefully I can get a few of those games in before I head out in August.  Signing off....
