Buy a PSP and turn it off remotely with that. ;)

Or you could just leave it on and turn on Folding@Home to donate some spare CPU cycles.

Seriously? I do have a PSP but it is modded too. Considering I never use it anymore, I probably could go ahead and unmod it.

Yeah, PSP has remote play - you can turn on and off your PSP from anywhere.

What the heck is that Folding@Home anyway?

You donate your PS3's cpu cycles to help cure cancer. Google "distributed computing"

I know there's the sports, action, and rpg's. Do they make any simple arcade-type games for the PS3? I haven't seen any. So far, they only thing I've gotten that I like are the street racing type of games.

You've got the wrong system if thats what you're looking for.

Luv, go into the playstation store on the main menu of the PS3. In there you will find a bunch of games that are geared more towards that.

I would recommend one called Super Stardust HD. It costs about $10, but its fun. You can download the free demo first if you want to try it out.

High velocity bowling was entertaining as well.

can u play it online?

That I don't know.

Now that's what I'm talking about.

I have the Bowling game, its awesome. It took me a while to learn how to play though. You gotta swing the controller like a damn bowling ball. Haha. Its fun once you get the hang of it.

Yeah, and everyday shooter and Pixeljunk Monsters and PAIN is pretty popular. sniff around enough and you'll find good ones all the way down to the basic stuff like Sudoku.

Has anyone found a good offbrand controller that utilizes regular batteries? I noticed Gamestop has one for $15 but I haven't seen any ratings for it.
