haha, to be honest I am actually even happy to let my dad use my new ps3 when I am not around.Of course, I feel safe to let him handle it since he knows how to take care of electronics equipment well. He owns a lot of high end DSLR cameras.

I've tried to make him understand that video games are no longer lame noisy things that are played by only kids for so long, now he finally understands what gaming is all about in this day and age. I remembered a few years back he said to me, "you're 20 years old now and you still want to play games?" Ever since then I tried to make him understand.

Now when I introduced to him first hand to sixaxis control from the ps3 I bought by saving up for a year, he actually got interested to play. Motorstorm and sixaxis did what I couldnt do for a long time.He started asking me about what games that we can get for the ps3, and so forth.It's evident that he realized that consoles now are a different kind than the arcade machines you see in the seedy arcades in the 90s with black mirrors and always filled with juvenile kids. Now he's even asking how to setup the ps3 so that he can use it when I am not around.

I was more than happy to oblige.
