That's right, I took another step out of retro gaming. But I didn't purchase this console, it was given to me. It's an 80gig system that is not backwards compatible. I currently have two games for it: SingStar (which I don't have any mics to play it with) and LittleBigPlanet. I put in LittleBigPlanet knowing that it was going to take awhile to install to the system, but it took an hour to! I had to download an update, then install game data to the system! Dang.. With my NES, all I have to do is put in the game and it plays. Even with my Wii, all the game has to do is load for a little bit! I also decided to download the free rental for Godzilla 2000 that was on the PlayStation Store and that stupid thing took 2 hours to download! It's a good thing I wasn't actually waiting to watch it.
All in all, I really don't know how often I'll play this thing. I had borrowed one before from my work and played the Sega Genesis Collection and I loved it! But it kind of defeats the purpose of getting this "new age" system only to play Genesis games on it. I can just use my Genesis!
Eventually I'll get more games or download some from the PlayStation Store, but for now I'm saving my monies for other, more exciting things! Yaaay!

What is that?
