Besides that, I’ve just been insanely busy (what’s new) pitching gigs, winning some, losing some, running away fast from others, and working secretly on Attest in the wee hours on top of everything else. Check out the PXL Blog for more (much much more soon), even if you’re not looking to get Flex certified or not interested in Attest, you’ll be very interested in some of the Adobe MAX goodness next week – mwahahha! Shhh, say no more…say no more, wink wink, nudge nudge, does she go aye?

On top of that, I’ve been updating MezzyShredder.com with new content, many a late night. He joined a new band, formerly called LOCKJAW, currently called War Horse. I defy even Yngwie Malmsteen to play faster or better than this man

Besides his band’s demo and performances, he’s teamed up with artist Scythen Hade and released their first album on iTunes called Elements of Time.

Check out the NEW Mezzy Shredder and Scythen Hade album entitled ‘Elements of Time’ on iTunes! I know of a few people who will be happy to finally get their hands on a real album instead of eating up my bandwidth listening to songs.

War Horse is actually highly likely to go tour next year in Europe, which would be insanely cool! I’ve posted new pics, songs, videos, and there’s a ton more coming soon. They’re currently recording their demo album and Mezzy is going to send much more material, so keep an eye out (or ear open) for updates.

There are hoards of other people with PS3′s that bought the map packs and later found out they couldn’t play them. Hopefully, this will prove useful to you. For Sony to build the PS3 and not enable backward compatibility….argh!!! What are you people taking lessons from Microsoft now?

So basically, I plugged in my iPod for the umpteenth time and was able to download the map packs. Heard a bunch of non-technical silliness on how to fix this problem, but in the end I just plugged the iPod into USB slot #1. I highly doubt it makes a difference which slot you plug it into, but as this was a cause for concern on the message boards I figured I’d share my week long battle against the PlayStation.

I’ve heard that others were able to get the packs working on their PSPs and certain types of Memory Sticks. Anyway, reading through the non-technical posts on the forums is fun. You can find suggestions not far off from a voodoo dance to get the map packs working, or introducing your PS3 to a bucket of water. I can assure you none of those will work, but they’d be worth a video on YouTube.

I have to say, I’m pretty miffed that some of the newer PS3′s apparently have no problem playing the packs, but the older ones like mine still contain a hard drive that’s good for use as a hockey puck so far at least. The first thing you’d think Sony would do is support the old PS2 games before they get a zillion PS3 titles out and the price of the PS3 itself comes down to less than a month’s rent.
