I'd do it right now, but John's got it in his room. I'll get that done for you tonight.

Killzone 3 is downloading. It was a bitch to get the PS3 on wireless. I really need to set my router up.

Also, I heard you finished modding John's stick. How'd you pull that miracle off?

I won't be at tonights meetup, so expect to be down a PS3 again.

If I don't have company next weekend though, I'll be down there.

I finally downloaded xpadder and have been playing arcana heart. Shit is so fun, but dorothy is definitely not an easy character.

After hours of figuring out how to tackle this, I found in a drawer of wires the smallest ribbon cable ever made in existance. The ends of each wire was small enough to fit into the input slots snuggly. I then i had to test all the inputs hoping they didnt fall out(which they did so the whole process was repeated three times) then secured them with hot glue. The plus side was the PSX pad did not need to be soldered(which was practically impossible given the size of the contact area).

To give you an idea of how small they are the grey ribbon cable is 30awg which is like the smallest gauge you can feasibly use for electronics and not be a robot and its about 30% larger than the yellow wire.

That's crazy Paul. I have some 30 AWG wire at home from when I was going to mod my stick. That stuff is tiny o.o You should mod my HRAP EX sometime after I get it back from home though =P I'll bring you my solder and wire that I never used.

Also, Killzone 3 is on your PS3 now. I'll probably install the beta on mine later today. That means having to upgrade firmware though I think D:

That's called the SpiffyShoes mod :D

No real talk though, that's what it was called because spiffyshoes came up with it in 2003 or so and everyone was using it in 2004

So whose showing up to Klaus tonight? If there are only a handful of people there for tonight I might skip bringing my setup all together or even head straight over to Ben's.

edit: Oh yea Ben, I've tried it that mod before with horrible results. This time it worked.

Posted

I've got group school stuff in like 30 minutes that will last until 7. I might swing by Klaus for like 30 minutes just to see if anyone is over there before heading back to North Ave.

I won't be there tonight I have crap tons of homework to do this evening. In addition I probably won't be able to come by for a while depending on if they keep scheduling me late at work :(

Posted

So you guys left your Ethernet cable plugged into my ps3; I guess if you still have the spare one it's okay. I can bring it next week.

Posted

whatchu know about that drunk arcana heart free.

shibuya I'll give you a call sometime, I always forget I have your number when I wanna play some games.

Posted

Its cool, that cable was a piece of shit anyways. Do whatever you'd like with it.

Also shoutouts for hype streams this week, everyone learn more GGAC!

Everyone should quit playing all these other animu games and start playing GG.

I honestly didn't remember any of my wins but I remembered getting hit confirm dp supered

Sorry I couldnt come trade PS3s last friday. lol. I should be able to make this friday, ill bring a set up again, I will be at the Thrashers/Rangers game so assuming you guys go late like usual i will come by late after the game.. provided.. you know.. i didnt have too much fun at the game. Get some more AH3 competition up in there.

Posted

Eh...that's not too much of a problem for me. I think I'd rather wait 6 more days than have to go to a Best Buy and play the game on a 360 pad.

Posted

ah3 friday? replaces bb? :D

vic+vinc might be rolling through too, dunno yet.

sober ben is a lot better than birthday ben :yaaay:
