The PS3 rocks.  I haven't listened to the advertised MP3 because I don't listen to MP3-casts, but the PS3 rocks.  Well at least as a Blu-ray player, and Blu-rays kick major anus.

I listened to the podcast, but I stopped listening after the Redfrog discussion flew off on an unrelated tanget. That said, I agree with everything that was said on the Redfrog issue.

The PS3 rocks.  I haven't listened to the advertised MP3 because I don't listen to MP3-casts, but the PS3 rocks.  Well at least as a Blu-ray player, and Blu-rays kick major anus.

I have to admit, I wasn't interested in the PS3 previously but since the HD-DVD forfeiture announcement I'm planning on getting one if for nothing more than a Bluray player with the hopes that one day a PS3 exclusive I care about will be released.

I'll concede as a console alone the PS3 is pretty pathetic as of right now, however.

People keep saying there is a mp3, where is the link to the mp3?  I just get a paragraph and a box with a question mark.  There is no way I am gonna install quicktime either.  I would like to hear it though.

But then again, so is the Xbox 360.  And the Wii.

Ps3 is a  great console! Its everything that you could want in a next-gen console. It has internet and media center capabilities. You can even install linux on a partition! The games are beautiful looking and online play is free.

nice podcast.  I enjoyed it.   Zeta you got a good voice / attitude for such a thing.  Good for you.    As a Turbo / burgeoning SNK crossover fan I wish you'd talk more about that stuff.  There's got to be plenty of resources for people out there interested in PS3 or whatever it is.

There is no MP3. I use AAC instead.

You can get the files directly from the RSS: http://web.mac.com/signofzeta/gfr/Game_Face_Radio/rss.xml

If you don't have Quicktime (which I can sort of understand as its really annoying under Windows) you can hear it with VLC.

I have Quicktime on Windows and it r00lz.  It's not as good as Mac Quicktime, but that is because the Mac is from the future.

I have Quicktime on Windows and it r00lz.  It's not as good as Mac Quicktime, but that is because the Mac is from the future.

On a Mac Quicktime is totally integrated (there's that world again) into the system and I don't even notice its there. Its just whatever runs when I play video/audio. So, its pretty much like Media Player...9, was it? Whatever the last non-ultra-annoying version of WMP was in Windows. And like WMP in Windows it will use whatever codecs and compressors that are in the QT library folder (which on my Mac is pretty much everything).

Under Windows though it really stinks. Its this "other" app that is separate from everything, and if you are going to use something separate from everything you are better off with VLC. Its also popping up all the time and asking you to update even if you haven't touched the program since the last update.

This is not exactly surprising. Safari under Windows is kind of pointless too since its operating in a vacuum without all the other cool Mac stuff to back it up. Once again, if you are going to use something non-integrated you might as well use Firefox.
