Fatboy Slim - Live At Brighton Beach (DVD)

Amazing album to remeber the gig.

Advantages: Great mixing, amazing tunes!
Disadvantages: Tracklisting is different to that of the actual gig.

Picture this. You're on the beach in sunny Brighton on a lovely july day. The world's greatest one man band is on the stage spinning tunes as you boogie on down in the sun. If you are into house music and want a good old dance in your front room, this album is just what you need. It's fat, it's chunky, and it's most certainly funky! The album kicks off with an incredible bootleg: Underworld's "Born Slippy" is mixed with "Bird of Prey" by Fatboy himself and it sounds great! Then comes "Austin's Groove" by Kid Creme. WHAT A TUNE THIS IS! A whole host of classic house tunes await you and some amazing fat slices of underground house you have never heard before. Huge tracks such as Basement Jaxx's "Where's Your Head At" and the nice and naughty "Star 69" by Fatboy Slim. My personal favourite is a tune called "Rocket Base". It is from ...

Review of Live On Brighton Beach - Fatboy Slim

PS3 Slim

Advantages: Excellent graphics, blu ray player, dvd upscaler, built in wi-fi, free internet gaming
Disadvantages: Still quite expensive

i have now owned my PS3 slim for just over a month, and could not be more pleased with my purchase. As a gaming machine it is fantastic, and in my opinion far better than the xbox 360. Unlike the xbox 360 the ps3 comes with built in wireless and internet gaming is free, which to me is a massive advantage for the ps3. the extra features on ps3 are vast, theres the blu ray player which gives outstanding picture quality with a 1080p tv, not only that but the ps3 slim is also a dvd upscaler, brilliant if like me you have a vast dvd collection that you can't afford to upgrade to blu ray. One of the most recent firmware updates gives you the ability to watch bbc iplayer through the ps3, no more having to watch to missed episodes of top gear on a tiny laptop screen. In my opinion the small things make such a difference in putting the PS3 above ...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 Slim (PS3)

PS3 slim

Advantages: Blu-ray, free online, nice extras like vidzone & iplayer. Almost silent operation
Disadvantages: Rubbish controller, still expensive, online nowhere near as good as xbox live

Well, had the slim for a few weeks now (my 1st ever playstation), personally, I'm a little underwhelmed by it, I've been a gamer since the nintendo game & watch days & owned @ least 1 of the current gen consoles since the Mega Drive(Genesis). Graphically the system has the potential to wipe the floor with the 360, but this is really only going to apply to PS3 exclusives as any software house making a multi-platform game is going to be as cost effective (lazy) as possible & use the same graphics on all the games where possible(ok, they need to dumb them down for the Wii). My problem here is that I have yet to get a game for it that runs in 1080P, they all seem to be in 720P! Why???? I'm sure they are out there, but I haven't found one yet. I guess this is down to most HD tv's being HD ready rather than Full HD. Sound-Yeah, ok ...
