“…said partner’s bad back do to a car accident…”

Should read… “Due to a car accident”.

But I’m sure you got the idea.

I’m also having an eye sight test this afternoon. I wonder if the matchsticks between my lids will help or not

(Eye sight test not related to car accident, I hasten to add)

PS. @106 [Apnomis]:

I don’t think the e-mails went out until around 12noon on Friday.

Have you heard of anybody receiving the promotional voucher codes on Thursday?

BFN,

No worries. There is a dedicated thread at the Official PlayStation Community (English) Forums too, btw:

As for attention span, I can relate to that this morning.

I was playing “Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection (Online)” last night (well, early this morning) & around 2am I was thinking ‘I should really get some sleep now’… especially when my partner arrives downstairs (…and I’m half-expecting the “what time do you call this?” face).

But no… she’s after my help… our 10 year old waterbed (bought for said partner’s bad back do to a car accident many years ago) has sprung a leak & the bedroom resembled the shallow end at the local swimming pool.

Finally got the water drained & bed dismantled by 4:30am, but had used every towel in the house to soak up the water so that the wooden laminate floor wasn’t damaged.

Partner goes back to sleep with smallest offspring, and I went back downstairs & fell asleep on the sofa after a few bleary minutes trying to source a new job (after my last one concluded at the end of August).

Up again at 6:30am when bounced on by another joyous bundle of fruit from my loins.

Off to Ikea after the kids finish school this evening to find another bed.

Sleep is for amateurs. Official

PS. Remember when ‘they’ tell you not to keep money under your mattress? The same applies to notes in the under-bed drawers of a leaking waterbed. I’m laundering money as well as towels this morning.

But just could not be bothered to read that review…
Sorry Fp! Might just be that its 10 to 10pm @ the mo though…

Thank you for your appreciation here & in the “PSN Store Update” blog comments.

Yes, it is odd about the decision to release an old build, especially to a wider-audience (the audience that would actually buy the finished product on the strength of the demo). I can only think that the fact that a playable demo of “Pure” was already available (or, maybe took the MotorStorm team by surprise) meant they rushed out what they had (already tested previously).

I loaded-up the 60% Private Beta again this morning, and did enjoy it for what it was. It is by no means a poor racing title, it just doesn’t present anything substantial above the existing “MotorStorm” game.

That said, I will revisit the more publicly available demo of “…Pacific Rift” when it is released as a lot can happen in build quality & playability in the last few weeks of an iterative development/testing cycle.

@98 [xMonkeyWrenchx]:

Many thanks for introducing me to “The Philip DeFranco Show” by way of the embedded YouTube videos on your blog.

That’s the rest of today/week/month gone… 
