Nothing against the Japanese, per se; I love Kurosawa movies, am fond of Godzilla, and I did study the Way of the Samurai, but Sony - Damn them.
Last night I settled down to watch CONFUCIUS on my Sony PS3 BluRay player. But it wouldn't play because I needed an encryption update. So I had to go on the net to find out what that meant - and the SONY site isn't that helpful about it. Eventually I discovered that I had to download a system update, and then put it on a memory stick in a certain arcane folder-within-folder manner.
Then I made the mistake of leaving the room to let it get on with it, and clearly I should have stayed, because it asked me a question about HDMI connection, and when I didn't answer, it timed out.
So when I came back, the screen was blank and the PS3 was off, and the movie still wouldn't play.
An hour later after several resets, I finally got it sorted, but I didn't watch the movie because my inner calm had been shattered.
So I got in my flight simulator and bombed Japan. That'll teach them.
