Just found this while i was surfing around and had to share it with you all. Its a very simple process and only requires your PSN ID name, no passwords needed here. It looks great and can be added to your Facebook profile page from Here. REMEBER: NEVER sign into any other website but the official playstation websites with your PS3 account details as there are some websites out there who will use your details to gain access to your credit card linked accounts. It's happened to me once and it completely freaked me out. I then went to the Official Playstation website and used the "forgot my password" option to reset it. I'am lucky they didn't change me email address also. -]]> http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/add-your-ps3-gametag-to-facebook/1515/feed/ 0 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/my-gt5-lounge/1487/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/my-gt5-lounge/1487/#comments Fri, 18 Jun 2010 11:00:48 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1487
My only worry with GT5 up until now has been weather or not Polyphony Digital will be able to pull off the multiplayer / online side to GT5 and i think i need not worry no more. News has emerged of a very cool feature. On the main menu in GT5 you will have the My Lounge area where you can set up races between you and your friends and also see what your friends have been up to by checking their progress. Another sweet! part to the Lounge is the ability to jump in and watch your friends race from any camera veiw, How does that beat waiting in a boring lobby for your friends to finish what they're doing. There is also some rumors of some kind of twitter feed in this lounge area aswell. if you haven't already may i suggest you pre-order this game NOW below to get the best price on the net. It's going to be the game of the decade!.... Probably. - If your an Xbox user may i suggest you sell that thing and buy a PS3 so you don't miss out.]]> http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/my-gt5-lounge/1487/feed/ 0 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/move-speculation/1346/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/move-speculation/1346/#comments Wed, 26 May 2010 11:11:44 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1346
Move & GT5 OK so everyones still bangin on about "ps3 move aint gonna be this" and "ps3 move wont be any good like that" etc etc but i think most people are missing the idea. I think they see the move and think of its limited Wii possibilities But it's not the Wii. It's the Move. I also think everyone thinks that we will be using the PS3 Move to drive the 1000+ cars in Gran Turismo 5 but i think otherwise. Think about it! Gran Turismo already have a very well made steering wheel already available for about the same price as 2 Move controllers and the Eyetoy will cost, so using the move won't  save you money there so why use the Move in GT5 if you won't be driving with it? The Move has a HUGE amount of possibilities and i would guess the guys over at Polyphony Digital will be alot more inventive when it comes to adding Move support to the game. Think for instance the possibilities of using it as a virtual camera. You could use it to take pictures of the car allowing you to walk around the car as if you [...]]]> http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/move-speculation/1346/feed/ 0 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/gt5/1342/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/gt5/1342/#comments Tue, 25 May 2010 12:33:22 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1342 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/gt5/1342/feed/ 2 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/safe-gaming/1237/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/safe-gaming/1237/#comments Sat, 08 May 2010 12:40:11 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1237
Bloody eye. As scary as it looks it actually didn't hurt. Last weekend was double points on MAG so i made sure i put some serious time in. I must have clocked up about 60 hours in 4 days of pure MAG and now my eye looks like this. My Twitpics   I looked it up and its nothing serious and the blood in my eye should go away after 3 weeks but it does show that gaming marathons may be damaging our eye sight. The safe distance to view a HD TV is 3 times the height of the TV away from the TV and obviously in a brightly lit room. While i know this and am aware, i still ignore this and play where i feel comfortable but im now thinking of maybe shelling out approx $100 for some gamer glassesalthough i did read somewhere that if you focus on something far away at least once an hour it can stop your eyes from straining.]]> http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/safe-gaming/1237/feed/ 3 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/3-30-system-firmware/1167/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/3-30-system-firmware/1167/#comments Thu, 22 Apr 2010 04:09:49 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1167 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/3-30-system-firmware/1167/feed/ 0 http://www.robgroove.com/technology/3d-revolution/1077/ http://www.robgroove.com/technology/3d-revolution/1077/#comments Tue, 06 Apr 2010 12:00:14 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1077
Wanna know about 3D TV's? With 3D technology set to make its entrance into our bedrooms and living rooms later on this summer (2010) i thought i better have a look into what exactly will be needed to enjoy this new experience. Sony have announced the Playstation already has the technology to run 3D. How does it work? We've all seen 3D has been around for quite a while but as our technology in the home gets more and more powerfull we get the ability to do cooler and cooler things like 3D. The old way was to use a red and blue lense or gel over each eye allowing you to see 2 different pictures displayed on one screen.  The new way is pretty much using the same principals. A Tv throws out 2 x 120Hz images (120HZ = 12 frames per second)   120 Hz to your left eye and 120 Hz to your right eye then you use the HD 3D glasses  which have a shutter system that  recieves a signal from the tv telling them when to close the left eye and when to close the right eye and they do this at 120 Hz or 120 frames per [...]]]> http://www.robgroove.com/technology/3d-revolution/1077/feed/ 0 http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/early-access/1014/ http://www.robgroove.com/robgrooves-playstation-3-junkie-blog/early-access/1014/#comments Wed, 31 Mar 2010 13:00:44 +0000 Rob Groove http://www.robgroove.com/?p=1014
