    not even that, theres a bunch of custom ones on the internet that are sick, the fact that you can make your own theme is awesome,,,

    and the fact that the new XBL update made themes a less prominent part of the dashboard...

      Yeah, it's complete bullshit on Xbox. Why anyone would pay for one of those is beyond me. Such a fucking ripoff.

      At least even if you wanted to pay for one on PS3 it is prominent and takes up the whole screen. 360 ones are fucking pointless.

        I never really cared about themes, but it is a little silly that they even still exist on 360 with the current dashboard.

            I'm pretty sure one of the best is www.ps3-themes.com

            The best part is that you can go to the site right from the PS3 browser and download them.

                  That's the best way if I remember correctly. It's so weird in terms of the Final Fantasy style. It's kind of more like modern western/Bethesda RPGs where doing an action is what increases your ability. In that case, getting hit a lot raises your HP. I remember playing through that a few years ago and constantly feeling like they didn't really think the concept through.

                    So I picked these up over the weekend. I had an older version of these that broke last fall. Absolutely love the sound these things put out, and even better, this ones completely wireless with the chat now and it also hooks up to both the Xbox and PS3.

                        It doesn't have an input for both at the same time, so whenever I switch consoles I have to change the digital audio cable in the back. But that's pretty simple, I have one running from both systems right to the headphones base, so all I have to do is take on off and pop the other in.

                          just played the Binary Domain Demo, they just straight ripped the Gears control scheme, set it in japan and called it a day....pretty lazy

                          when Vanquish ripped Gears they at least added Japanese style insanity to it by adding bullet time, the Rocket slide, and Insane boss fights...

                            Exactly what I said on the podcast. Fucking Japanese GoW. But not nearly as good.

                              Birth By Sleep is now done. Incredible game. My head has been hurting deciphering the story, but it is fantastic. Another Kingdom Hearts game done for now. I guess I am gonna have to finish 358 next. I want to finish it, but that may be the only KH game that I don't like. It drags along unfortunately. BBS did an excellent job bringing the console experience to the PSP. I haven't played a ton of PSP games so I won't go and say it did the best job of doing that, but I will say that it is what Sony envisioned when they 1st thought of the PSP and what it was meant to do. Hopefully they do a better job with the Vita.
