PS3 Is out

5 Comments

Its now offical [via]

if we go by specs , ps3 is better than the Xbox 360
but sony wouldn’t settle for a ” better ” it seem , they are going for the kill

while Xb0x 360 backwards compatibility is still rumors ( nothing is confermed )
sony says that ps3 is firmly compatibile

CD PlayStation CD-ROM, PlayStation 2 CD-ROM, CD-DA, CD-DA (ROM), CD-R, CD-RW, SACD, SACD Hybrid (CD layer), SACD HD, DualDisc, DualDisc (audio side), DualDisc (DVD side)
DVD: PlayStation 2 DVD-ROM, PlayStation 3 DVD-ROM, DVD-Video, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW
Blu-ray Disc

and its blu-ray !

and the fact that it use most memeory on the market is good also

    USB Front x 4, Rear x 2 (USB2.0)
    Memory Stick standard/Duo, PRO x 1
    SD standard/mini x 1
    CompactFlash (Type I, II) x 1

notice how memory stick ( the one used in nearly most sony products ) is there ? thats good for them
because that what would be called cross product sales

speaking of cross product sale
Sony has the change to do what Game Boy Advance link with Game Cube did before
Link UP ! since both share USB 2.0 and Wi-Fi which could enable the psp to interact with ps3

game that were shown are
Devil May Cry 4
Fight Night 3
Spider-Man
Getaway PS3
Warhawk PS3
Tekken 6
Killzone 2 (working title)
Gran Turismo 5
Final Fantasy XII

some bloggers have flickr accounts
Flicker was mostly normal people posting pictures they took with their digi-cam , some pro also use it , but not much i think

others are dicovering it and using it , it seem a U.S. Senator has a flicker account as well ! wow , that nice .

wish our parliment members used new Technology , other than mobiles and few members who have bad web sites , our parliment members are the same as the ones in 1960’s
wonder what Al-tabtabaee flicker would be like 😛

forzaq8 not foraza q8

3 Comments

it may not seem like much , but foraza has not meaning , forza is the italian word , and my blog name should be forzaq8

i have no idea how i made that silly mistake in my blog headline , maybe because i was too busy checking the code to make work that i didn’t notice the extra A in forzaq8
sometimes when you do something , you overlook the mistakes you did , a friend of mine was talking to me on messenger and told me of the mistake , i didn’t think that was possible , as i double check everything , but as i asid , its easy to miss something when you worked on it , people always think what they do is perfect

anyway , if you linked to my site with the use of the old headline foraza , change it please 😛

cyber freedom of speech in kuwait

1 Comment

some people talked about a blog that got banned here in kuwait by all kuwait ISP

I went around and started checking , and i couldn’t enter it from my ISP and i tried another ISP , same result

so i said to my self , why not try to check on smartfilter URL checker
since its the software some of our ISP use here in kuwait Qualitynet

and what i got ?

like woha ! the blog did suck , but it had it funny moments , i thought it was bad ! but not that bad !
and not only the page is going to get blocked in kuwait , but by all ISP or companies or houses that use
smartfilter products ( which i was told there are a lot )

to compare i had one of the blogs i link to checked , brother Q
it came out as Personal Pages
( Zaydoun with all his political talk still came out as personal pages also )

do you think the ISP had the right to report him as such ?

where do you draw the line ? porn ? flashing breasts ? hair ? uncovered face ?

( i’m not linking to the blog that was banned , he seem to have removed it , but its still in the database )
