  So I'm moving to Chile... HELP!!

  Hi again guys... so I am 21 and I just got married to my chilean girlfriend in England.

  Now we are moving to Chile and I really want to take my UK PS3 to Chile... I know that the PS3 is region free and so buying games over there is not a problem, however I do still have a problem:

  Will my playstation 3 work if I use a travel adapter to plug into the plug sockets? Obviously the plugs we use in the UK is different to the ones that are used in Chile. Can i just buy another power cable whilst over there? or can I just use a simple travel adapter that you would use whilst going on a holiday? I need to know because PS3's are more expensive over there and I do not want to travel with my playstation if it is no use to me whilst in South America... I would rather sell it beforehand

  Any help would be greatly appretiated!!!!

  Keep on gaming!!

  Mike

  Sorry Xbox, I have had enough

  So over the last 4 years I have only had a 360 and to be honest I was very naive at the prospect of getting a PS3. I have finally decided to take the plunge and grab a PS3 and in the process I will be selling my Xbox 360 Slim... Why?

  Free Online

  Better Exclsuives

  Better Graphics

  Blu Ray

  Better System Interface

  Cheaper Games (Second Hand)

  Microsoft has been really annoying me lately and in the next 18 months the ONLY exclusive that intrests me is Halo 4. Ive never been a Gears fan, all the Fables are the same and Forza is just another driving simulator. I am fed up of paying for online (my subscription is over soon) and I also HATE the Microsoft Points system... a 800 Microsoft point game means I need to purchase 1,000... its stupid whereas on PS3 its just a fixed price. Microsoft also infuriated me by sending me an email stating that the price of a 1 year gold subscirption would cost me around £60 if I didnt update... so like a fool I bought a 1 year subscription because the price rise only to find out they never actually raised the price of xbox Live for the gold membership!! WTF?

  Sorry to be moaning on but just one last point... Microsoft I used to love your console... now I see it is an utter rip off and with you only seeming to be pushing the Kinect forward I am afraid my video game loyalties now lay with Sony.

  We had a good run but this Xbox is now embracing the Playstation

  Was Portal 2 too easy?

  Hi Guys, I just grabbed Portal 2 last week and played through it in 3 days and I just couldn't help but think that the game was too easy. I played through the original Portal maybe 3 times and I was hoping for something a great deal more challenging. I didn't feel that the new elements such as the Gels, light bridges etc. added too much more depth and me and my girlfriend (who doesn't play many game at all, litterally just the lego games) played the co-op and we finished it pretty easily.

  How did you feel about it?

  Just note I am not slating the game, I thought it was brilliant and is by far the best game I have played this year. The amount of detail and humour made the game a masterpiece... I just didn't find the game as hard as I was hoping for.
