I really shouldn’t be surprised about the fact that everyone and their dog seems to have come up with a hack and “utility” for the PS3. In fact I don’t know why I didn’t see this coming. It wouldn’t bother me so much, but for the fact that not having these things downloaded makes me look like some kind of uber noob.

I could accept this I suppose, but really the reason I have a hard time with feeling like a moron isn’t because I think I should know better. It has much more to do with I feel like I shouldn’t have to waste my time with something I don’t care about and not get laughed at for it.

I mean does it really matter if I have the latest skin of Jessica Alba downloaded on my television? I am kind of impressed when I bother to change the wallpaper on my computer.

My other question is where do all you people find the time to make these things? I could understand if this was your job or something. I can even understand if it was a hobby that you enjoyed, but to make fun of me for not having this just seems ridiculous.

Maybe I am just getting old. Or maybe I just don’t take the whole video game hobby seriously enough, but to be honest I don’t care about the latest PS3 download for the most part. I have a PS3 so I can play games. If I wanted to download pics, or programs I would use a computer.

Yet I know that I am in the serious minority here, and that really it is just another sign that being a casual gamer is far different from being a gamer. That’s okay, next time someone makes fun of me for not being a gamer, I am going to pull out my first edition Dungeons and Dragons Dungeon Masters guide and hit them in the head with it. That is what a real gamer is about anyway.
