PS3 Slim vs PS3 Phat?

2009-08-27T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

Ive had enough with my xbox career so far, cause I have had 3 previous xboxs that have all broken down within 6 months on average and now my current arcade one has just fried, and I havent used it more than any other 360 person. Maybe its that Im just unlucky because many people are fine with theirs.

Anyway.

Im gonna go with a PS3 and just ignore the high price compared to the xbox. So far all Ive found out in differences with the phat and slim is that the slim uses less power, it gives off less heat is quieter and you can by a 120gb slim for the same price as a 80 gb phat . Is that right? but the phat looks way better than the slim and many people are sticking with their phats cause they know its very very reliable.

So basically the scores are:

Phat: - Slim:

2 - 4

Please could any one that has an opinion give an answer that covers as much as possible cause I will give the most detailed the best answer and if you could sum it up or whatever with summin like;

phat:- slim:

2 - 4

=p

The 80 GB looks cooler but its a dust magnet body.If you got 80 GB then you have always clean your 80 GB PS3.Because its get dirty fast because of thier ceramic black paint.In my opinion you have to buy PS3 slim because The PS3 slim (officially called the PS3 CECH-2000) will feature an upgradeable 120GB hard drive and is 33% smaller, 36% lighter, and consumes 34% less power than previous models.The cooling system has been redesigned and Cell processor has moved to a 45nm manufacturing process.The PS3 slim will also include support for BRAVIA Sync allowing control of the console over HDMI and will run quieter than previous models but no longer has the ability to install third party operating systems such as Linux.

So buy it Because it has more features then PS3 80 GB.Sorry for bad English.

well phat for the looks and slim for the hardriove and the weight and the size

slim is better if your going to be playing it all night plus it's the 2nd gen of playstation3

Well for starters the PS3 had a price drop of $100 effective now ! So the Slim and Fatty PS3 go for $299 while the 160GB with Unchartered: Drake's Fortune packed in goes for $399 !

Yes you're correct about the Slim being quieter and it does use less power ! On a down note, neither PS3 will play PS2 games nor can you download the LINUX OS ! Sony has stated that BC is not coming back so that's a bummer for people who wanted a BC PS3 !

Thew only major differences between the Slim and Fatty besides the size is the Slim can now be paired to any Sony Bravia tv with a feature known as Bravia Synch !

If you have a Bravia TV and you hook up your new PS3 with an HDMI cable (…not included), you can operate the PS3’s media bar with your TV’s remote – you can even set it to turn the system off when you turn the TV off.

Play station 3 ps3 Ethernet cable.?

2009-08-27T22:31:00.007-07:00

ok so i got a ps3 slim today this is my first time

and i need to know what kind of cable i need for the ps3 Ethernet cable

please quick

i don't know what to do

i know where to put it and stuff i just dont know what kind i need for the ps3

all you need is an Ethernet cable, because the Slim has Wi-Fi it doesn't come with one so you'll have to go buy one, or if you have any extra ones lying around use one of those

an ethernet cable that came with the ps3

Is it true sony are going to start charging?

2009-08-27T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

Is it true sony are going to start charging for their live service?

My bro's a Dm working in the industry - hes a bit sketchy about details but told me sony are going to start charging (possibly around christmas time) in Europe for a premium live service. I googled but all I’ve found is this: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/art…

Cant find anything concrete or official. Please understand I’m not after personal opinion (I’m looking for backups or links on this from experts, retail employees etc if you've they've 2 minutes)?

I dont think anyone on yahoo will be able to answer this. Sony certainly won’t confirm it because they have a history of BS. Youre better off asking this on the official forum or user forums. Every 12yr old who owns a games console thinks theyre an expert on yahoo.

That's highly doubtable. If sony were to do that that would just give undecided console buyers a reason to get xbox because if I'm gonna pay for somthing its gonna be top of the line. Sony decided om free service to lure gamers not push them away. Let's say there's a small chance sony needs a profit and and does charge, it wouldn't be near 50 dollars and if it did, u can just see PSN soaring past xbox live.

You won't find a true answer here, just opinions. At this point in time, I would say no. I don't own a PS3, but I'm pretty sure Xbox Live has a lot more features which is why it costs money. So as long as they are trailing the Xbox in feature, I don't see how they could charge. They would also be taking away a reason why some people like PS3 over 360. When people give reasons why they like PS3 more, they always say free online play.

Used PS 3 Battlefield: Bad Company Gold Edition---Unlockables Question?

2009-08-27T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

If I buy a used copy of the Gold Edition, am I able to use the unlocks that were included with it when it was new? I know that all the same unlocks are accessible through playing the game on the standard edition so if they are designed to be used by the original owner and can't be accessed when you buy used, then it isn't worth the extra money to me. Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can give me.

yes they are on the disk not on a card so youll get them

how can i get free psn cards or playstation network cards without paying any money and not using a credit card? Best answer gets the points.

Here's a site for free psn cards and ps3 games. http://www.freeplaystationnetwork.info Works great. Get free games for any console. Free accessories. They have a live chat community to make friends or ask questions about the site and a lot more. I think this would be your best option. Check it out

You cannot get PSN cards for free unless you steal them. You cannot get them anywhere online.

You don't pay for online on PS3.

How do you get full HD on a ps3 with the 2 red, green, yelow, and blue cables its only 480i?

2009-08-26T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

i recently bought a new 42inch phillips HD tv for my family. and my son talked me into it because he has the ps3 40g and the hd stuff, but my step son told us to buy the colored cables so we did and when he plugged it in he noticed it said 480i not 1080p can any body tell us how to change it my son try ed be fore but did something wrong any. do i need to but different cables or in the display setup what does he do because we cant figure it out. it dosent say colored cables or have a picture of them.

First of all lokk at that cable you are using. One set of Yellow, Red and White should be seperate from the Red, Green and Blue(maybe also Red and White). Only plug the Red, Green and Blue cables into the TV.(also the appropriate sound cable) I am guessing you have that yellow one plugged in and are on that input on the TV. I hope this helps.

Also try

http://columbiaisa.googlepages.com/playstation3_hookup.htm

you have to go to Settings>Display Settings>Video Output Settings then configure the ps3 to either 1080p, 1080i or 720p.

You can get HD out of component (the one with lots of colors) but it doesnt have enough bandwidth to support Full HD and for that you need an HDMI cable

Since you have been using the SD cables, your ps3 thinks that it can only emit an SD signal even though you are using HD cables. You have to go to your ps3 settings and enable 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080p. Then, you will get an HD quality signal.

The component video cables support up to 1080i and you could always buy a HDMI cable of amazon for 4 cents and give that a try. Other wise try changing the setting on the ps3 or it could be the game you are playing.

go into the video setting on the ps3 and click 480p, 720p,and 1080i the ps3 will then ask u do you want to keep this settings click yes..and your in hd heaven

the component cables of which you speak will give you full hd but he may need to change the settings on the ps3 to go to 1080p

For those wondering about the ps3 slim vs ordinary ps3?

2009-08-26T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

I got my ps3 yesterday afternoon from game stop. i had it on pre order and they got them in early (yay!). This is what i've found.

It is thinner than the ps3, but nearly just as wide.

Still kinda heavy

It looks nice but no rotating Playstation Symbol

Wouldnt trust it standing upright, wobbly without stand

New start up screen displaying PS3 new logo

A bit faster than the original

Very quiet, can barely even hear it at all in a quiet room

I had it on for 4 hours trying to download Killzone 2 demo, and it got pretty darn hot/over heated. bummer :(.

Do you trust the original ps3 or the slim? any other questions?

Just make sure that the ps3 can get a loit of air to help cool the system.

Thanks for giving us a little review. I still trust the slim, but not as much as the original because the original has been out for much longer so it's more trusted. When you say a bit faster do you mean the games load quicker? The original looks nicer than the slim, and they want you to buy a $25 stand so you can stand it upright.

thank u very much...

Do u think that there will be a remake of ff10 for ps3?

2009-08-26T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

No, because FFX is already on the PS2. The game isn't that old. Besides, SE isn't remaking FFVII so why remake FFX. Very few people say that FFX is the best FF game, while a lot of people say that FFVII is the best FF game. If SE isn't going to remake the more popular game, why would it remake a less popular game.

They have left the door open for a FFVII remake

No!

Now go and pull the thing that's in the rectangle hole in your wall walk through it and inquire about purchasing a life.

How to burn ps3 games to disk?

2009-08-25T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

Hi there, iv'e been doing a little research i have come across two sites:

http://www.allconsoledownloads.com/

http://unlimitedps3downloads.com/

Now from as far as i can gather you can burn the game onto a dvd + r Dual Layer.

What i really need to know is that

1. It requires no flashing/modding consoles whatsoever

2. That it runs completely normal when you put it into your ps3, xbox 360

3. That it would run on any other console, e.g. my friend's absolutely fine like the real thing.

Before i pay for the membership, i need to know these things, and if the information above is provided could you tell me which site is best to go with?

Thanks guys

They are both scams. Here are my sources:

there both scams you cant even play copied ps2 games without a modded ps2 so there's no way you would be able to play copied games on a ps3 with the advanced technology and even if you could you would need to burn it onto blu-ray or the ps3 wouldn't recognize it as a game

I don't believe most PS3 games will copy to a DVD-R. They use Blu-Ray for a reason; the DVD-R doesn't have enough space to hold it all. You must copy to Blu-Ray. Its not easy to compress that data either.

You can't copy PS3 games and this is common knowledge. That's how we know its a scam. Sony and the game developers do not permit copying any Playstation games for any reason whatsoever and they do not provide legal downloadable copies to sites like these.

Another reason is its too good to be true. Downloading games for any console with one flat fee? It is never, ever that simple or easy, especially with the current gen consoles. (One of them is using the concept pic of the PS3, how pathetic).

All Playstation consoles require a mod chip to play burned games and they never play without console modification (since all of this is illegal). There is no mod chip for the PS3. That is just one reason why it won't play burned PS3 games. No exceptions to this.

Copied games will not work once game updates become available. This is probably one of the biggest reasons why copying PS3 games have been so unsuccessful to this point. The console itself will probably stop working it you had attempted to mod it.

Sony will ban you from the PSN permanently once you try to run the copied game. Sony could also have you reported to the local authorities for committing piracy. Your ISP can also report you for committing piracy. They will figure out what you're doing because you're gonna be attempting to download some really big files and that will use up cap limits and things like that.

Its cheaper to buy the game in the end. Don't risk missing out on updates or trouble with the law.

So the ps3 is going down in price?

2009-08-25T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

does any one know what the new price will be???

The PS3 should have already gone down in price everywhere. It was announced at GameCom last week and should have gone into effect immediately. 80 GB is $299 and the 160 GB is $399. Once these models are gone, they're gone forever.

The new PS3 Slim model will be released soon and is priced at $299. Its replacing the Fatboys.

US- 120GB Slim model 299$

UK- same above model 225-250£

Europe- 299 Euros

US- 80GB old model with a game 299$

UK- same model with game 225-250£.

Europe- 299 Euros.

theres a new ps3 coming out on 1st september and that going to be priced at £250 so the original one is guna be about £150

In europe: 300 Euros

In USA: $300

I dont know the exact price but g4tv said they were coming down 100 dollars.

Depends where you are on the planet.

a couple days ago in certain walmarts they came down to $300 thats all i know about.

In england, America Canada where are you??? Probably 300 pounds i hear!!

How long will they keep making PS2 games?

2009-08-25T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

i know the ps2 is pretty old, and now there is a ps3, but i still see some new ps2 games once in a while, how long will it be before they totally stop making ps2 games?

Game developers will keep making games for the PS2 as long as they're still making money off of it, even if Sony stops producing the PS2 console itself. The PS2 is still a successful and profitable platform.

The same thing with the PS1, when majority of the people decided to play with their PS3, the demand for PS2 games would drop.

PS2 is almost 10 years old. THey are going to stop very soon. Im suprised they still making games people like totally forgot about GBA and wii even tho its newre then ps2 and xbox is gone LONG gone LOL

not for too much longer hopefully, ps2 is getting old and junk, collect as many as you can now!

As soon as people don't buy them or when they do not make as much profit from it.

But hey,PS2 is still popular,I still play the PS2 myself.

se..ps2 is not like ps1 even if its getting old...according to me there are still many more games to come in ps2...and some people said that fifa street 3 will not be available on ps2..but now it is

Not long, because in the U.K. there is this shop that dropped the price because they have to get rid off everything!!!

as soon as the ps3's price drops

PSP Go! or Ps3?!????

2009-08-25T22:31:00.005-07:00

you see the psp go has bluetooth capability so is compatible with the ps3 dualshock controller, and connected to the tv, it's practicly a game console, so with that being said what is best the ps3 o psp go!?

they are basically 2 diffferent consoles with the same games.

ones for gaming at home with hd and ones for gaming where ever u want.

Are you joking

PSP GO has 16gb vs PS3 slim 120gb GEE i dont no

go with ps3 its like almost the same price ( $50 bucks difference ) and its so small you gotta bring it to your eye socket to see or play any games trst me they wont make much money outta the GO people dont give roll wit PSPz no more

and no its not a game console or even close its a game handled

mhm i see i was actually thinking about this other day wait for the psp go. psp can wait. instead do what im doing get the ps3 slim comes out first week of september for $299.00 120 gb hardrive . and i currently have all 3 main sytems and handhelds. and yeah i have 4 x box 360"s 3 which are broke from red rings of death and the other ones sounds like a effin gocart like i said ps3!!!!! anymore questions e mail me happymuffin@ymail.com

I would get a Ps3

mainly because it does everything the PSP Go can, and more.

the psp go is exactly the same as the old psp.it is not high def graphics or anything special dude.the ps3 is what u should buy

Buy an Xbox 360.

Don't expect too much, most Id say, would be like 90$ to gamestop, they seriously RIP you off!!, sell these items on ebay or craiglist and you're looking at 150$+

Note: Don't expect too much and you'll be surprised how much you get out of that, great things happen when you least expect them, better keep your fingers crossed.

About 30-40$ for the console itself if you are lucky. Factor in another 2-3$ per game and your looking at at least $200 from gamestop or another store. Its not much but hey.

depends on where you sell it if you sell at a game store you'll only get a fraction of what its worth try selling it on ebay.

Over $100.00

What Ways Can A 12 Year Old Make Enough Money So That I Can Get A X-box Arcade And Halo.?

i live in a bad neighbor hood so i cant do cleaning house jobs and i cant get an allowance, and i cant sell stuff on the internet so all i can do is sell stuff at school and i wont make enough money doing that i also have tons of old stuff to sell but i don't know were to sell it so i need major help.!

i agree with the other person here, you can get an arcade but if you want to play Halo online you will need a hard drive which cost a lot of then you will have to get a subscription to Live which cost more money, i mean don't get me wrong if you can buy this with the money you make more power to ya but this is usually the case with the 360. If you have old games or old consoles take them to gamestop you might get some stuff, to sell some stuff try Craigslist.org although be careful since it could be a dangerous place, have an adult with you if you do sell something ok buddy!

Good luck my friend!

Hey dude, you know you have to spend another $100 for a wifi adaptor just to play online right? and you have to spend another $50 a YEAR just to do online gaming. Then, you have to spend another $30 just to charge your controller right?

I'm not kidding :|. Also, you have to get hard drive for your 360 or else your can't save games or even go on Xbox Live. That's going to cost you another $100.

Your going to spend a total of $280 more than what your supposed to :\. With the Arcade, that's $480, not even including Halo.

Good luck making money man. If I were you, I would rather buy a PS3.

what about a yard sale? also do you just not have a computer to post on ebay? if u dont how about getting another family member or a friend to help.

what about other ways to make money? baby sitting, mowing lawns, raking leaves, etc.

Parents? Your 12 so they gotta help you out some how. Make your parents a promise that you do good in school they will buy you a ps3.

hmm why u asking this on the PlayStation section.... either open ur eyes n get a ps3 or go back to the xbox sextion

Lemonade stand

Rob a house! JK Don't do it! There's garage sale (maybe that won't work) Well... yeah good luck!

Sell crack and get a PS3...

Best RCA cords for PS3?

2009-08-24T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

Hello, I have a 32" sd tv hooked up to my PS3, I was wondering what the best Red,White, Yellow cords are that could hook in from my ps3 to the TV? Links e.g the cords on amazon.ca or .com would be great fully appreciated!

With a standard definition tv you cannot get more that a RCA cable(Red, White, Yellow cords) all are the same so don't waste money. If you want the PS3 in HD, you have to buy a HDTV and a HDMI cable.

I have always been real happy with the price and quality of monoprice.com:

http://www.monoprice.com/products/produc…

Take a look usually you can't beat the price.

Any RCA cords will be fine. There isn't a certain cable that will give you a better signal, they are all the same.

If the TV is SD then the cords that came with ur ps3 are ur best bet nothing else will do anything else better or worse

Since Sony has been so adamant about BC not coming back to the PS3, will BC be in the PS4 ?

2009-08-24T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

I personally believe Sony has disappointed people who bought non BC PS3's and I'm guessing they won't add BC to the PS4 once it debuts ! They underestimate how much people want BC in their PS3 and as consumers who support Sony, they should do the right thing and release an update to bring BC back !

It's too early to tell but I believe Sony underestimated just how much BC means to a lot of PS2 owners who still like playing their PS2 games ! No one wants to buy another PS2 console when their old one breaks down !

I doubt they'll BC to the PS4 !

It really depends on how successful Sony can be at emulating the Graphics Synthesizer chip.

Adding PS2 hardware to the newer consoles has proved to be expensive, therefore, Sony has to charge an arm and a leg for it. Most people aren't willing to pay that much, so Sony removed it. It sucks, but you can't have it both ways. Since too many people were b*tching about the price, you'll never see the hardware in newer consoles again unless the PS2 hardware gets cheaper and that isn't likely anytime soon.

That leaves emulation. This is very easy and cheap to do with PS1 games, which is why its been available from the get-go. Not so much with the PS2. Emulating the Emotion Engine isn't a big problem. Its the emulation of the Graphics Synthesizer that is difficult, mainly because it runs so damn fast. Recent patent filings for GS emulation shows that Sony has at least attempted to work on it, though.

If Sony plans to ever bring BC back, it will be through 100% software emulation and that will depend on how successful they can be at emulating the Graphics Synthesizer. Emulation isn't as expensive as the actual hardware and Sony could even charge for it as add-on firmware to help cover the costs (demand is high enough). Also, they won't release it on the PS3 as long as they are still selling PS2 consoles.

By the way, I was not disappointed about the lack of BC on my 40 GB. Its not like I had to sell my PS2 to get a PS3.

y r u talking about a ps4...there coming out w/ another ps3, so y would u talk about a ps4? mine got BC....& whenever the ps4 comes out u wont even be thinking of ps2 games

probably not if you seen the price i got mine a little before they took out BC

I don't think they'll put BC, as it would cost more money to produce and the console's price would be higher.

PS3 New or Old???????????

i've been wanting to get a ps3 for awhile now and i have to choose between this.my uncle is willing to sell me his and it has the ps2 compatablite and i have A LOT of ps2 games or should i buy a new one my uncles is about one or two years old

Buy Your uncles. I've got the last line of PS3's with backwards compatibly and i love it. Your Uncles will probably be cheaper too. Also you can install Linux and it should have 4 usb ports plus the sd card readers.

Buy your uncles, you lucky dog.

Will i have trouble connecting my PS3 to a linksys WRT54G WiFi router if my PSP cannot find an access point?

2009-08-23T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?…

I don't believe that linksys routers support AOSS, WEP should be the encryption best for portable devices like a PSP. Try using normal wireless setup instead of AOSS and if the PSP associates with the AP but doesn't get a IP Address, try setting a static IP address on the PSP instead of having it get the address through DHCP. The Secure Easy Setup button is not the same as AOSS sadly so you could be associating with it incorrectly. Also the PS3 should connect fine, If you buy one and neither of them connect, it could be a AP issue. In my references I gave links to some Connection setup guides for the PSP, they might help you.

hmmm there may be an issue with your PSP's wifi, I have the same router and am able to connect both PSP SLim and PS3

When does the DLC for fallout 3 on ps3 come out?

Or has it already?

also, how would it work on the ps3?

I download it and then install or buy it at the store and it's a new game i don't really understand how it works!

Thanks

Forget what that guy said the DLC's for fallout 3 are coming the first one is going to be at the end of september then 2-3 weeks apart....i know it sucks. If you look at the trophies for it you will see new ones for the add ons. But instead of buying all of the add ons for about 100 dollars wait till October 14 and the game of the year edition is coming out for 50 dollars.

Also put into google Fallout 3 PS3 DLC and you will find alot of stuff.

hope i helped

What a noob @ first answer. GOTY edition is coming out for PS3 also...

Well, there's a lot of rumor that it will all come out in mid-September. The Game of the Year edition of Fallout 3 is coming out on October 13th, that's when you get the game and all 5 of the DLC's.

Edit: Ok first you buy a PSN Card from like 7-11 or Target. Then you scratch the code in the back, enter the code to your PSN Account and now you have money on your account. Then just select what you want to buy, and let it download until complete.

never! thats why fallout is 30 bucks for ps3 and 60 for the xbox.

we have dlc, and you do not.

and wont.

notice how GOY edition is for 360 only??

yeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhh

place it in a cooler spot

Will they still make the old ps3?

2009-08-22T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

so i heard that the new ps3 is slim and i saw the picture and it is so ugly and i like the old ps3 but will they still make them

No, Sony stopped production on them awhile back. The last PS3s are on store shelves.

They stopped production because the Slim is cheaper to make, sense the Slim is cheaper to make they can lower the price. Lower Price means more sales. So they will NOT make another old PS3 because then they will have to raise price again and sales will lower.

If you want a old PS3, then buy one now before they are sold out!

No , the only PS3 being produced at the moment is the PS3 slim , the Other ones are on sale only still the stocks last , so if you want a new fat PS3 ,get one quick

It depends on the older´s sales.If the older sales better than the newer then yes...they might keep making the older-it´s about the customer here-they should be able to understand that continuing with a prouct that doesn´t sell isn´t worth it...

Yes but it will get phased out eventully as Sony did with the ps2 (fat)

as there are no ps2 fats avaliabile but only ps2 slims

Im sure they will. I haven't seen the new slim one. I hope I helped!

Should I go ahead and get CoD4, or should I wait for it to drop. I have already waited over half a year from when I got CoD World at War, so I really dont mind waiting.

LOL, they might actually RAISE the price. If everyone plays Modern Warfare 2, then HUNDREDS of people will wanna get COD4 to see what happened before MW2.

Depends if MW2 is better than cod5 (doubt they can get worse) then prbly like 30

well call of duty is already 30-40 bucks so i doubt it

How to play ps2 games on an 80gb ps3.?

2009-08-22T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

I recently bought a PS3 and learned that I had to update it to play my PS2 games. So I updated it to version 2.80 ands it still would not play. The game I tested was the original kingdom hearts. I am not sure if I downloaded the wrong thing or if the game is just not compatible. Please tell me what I need to do to get it to work.

The newer 80 gig ps3 models have Limited backward capability if you want to be able to play your ps2 games you'd have to get the 06 and 07 versions which are the 20 gig and the 60 gig

only the 06 and 07 models of ps3 are backwards compatibility, 20gb 60gb and some 80gb's. Only way is to buy one off ebay, gamestop, amazon etc. "used"

Playstation 3 help!!!!?

2009-08-22T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

Ok i made a playstation acc and i forgot the password and i had to put in incorrect info which again i forgot. So i went to playstation.com and i made a new acc and my ps3 says that i can log in as another gamer. please help!!!

This is a common fault and what i would do make a back up of ps3 content. Use the format utility and then the memory is wiped for you to add any playstation account name that you want

HA! Happened to me as well. I was in a rush and I didn't put the right info. I contacted Sony via email. I explained the situation. They asked for some detail and then they emailed me a link and redo the info and a password. Warning, the password has a limited time, so when they send it to you, you have a day or two to do something about it.

Google PS3 go to there website and look up customer support. Send the info and your problem.

Create another user on your PS3 and then make another account on that user on your PS3, and then select SAVE password so you never forget it.

HAY GUYS THE PS3 SUKS RITE?

360 IS WAY TO GO!!! I LOVE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY DECENT GAMES BEING SHOOTERS LOL. AND WII IS LIKE STUPID WITH THE MARO AND ZELA CRAP, AM I RITE? AND THE DS IS LIEK THE SAME WITH THE DUMB POKEMANS AND WHATEVA.

Anyone actually realise that this kid is a PS3 fanboy?

Clearly joking about 360 being the best (imo it is the best console to have as its cheaper and microsoft just buys everything)

I do love my PS3 resistance has my heart

But being serious guys PS3 just isn't doing it, Activision is already threatening to stop publishing for it, imagine no call of duty on the playstation, it would be the death of the console.

You know what sucks? The fact you don't have enough money to buy a PS3 even though you begged your mom (with tears) to get you one.

The other thing that sucks is your spelling. AM I RITE?

YOU IS LIKE STUPID WITH YOUR XBOX AND SHOOTERS CRAP, AM I RITE?

Go get a life.

yes you are right. IN YOUR DREAMS! lol ps3 waw better than everything.

PS3 FTW!!

what are you, a five year old, son you forgot to turn the caps off.

HA HAS all i can say is rr of death!!!!!!!1111

the only thing that sucks is your spelling, ...and of course your attitude.

disgusting....

you is a ******* idiot asshole go **** off

PS3 is better than 360 because we get better than decent shooters. exp Killzone 2

360's suck cuz you have to pay to play online

Tomb Raider Underworld SUX who agrees?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

The worst game on PS3

Tomb Raider has lost its appeal for me. It no longer has the excitement of the old games when there were hours of puzzles, moments when you were scared, and the whole alone, excited feeling. now it is great graphics, short on gameplay, and very short on imagination. So yes I agree TR:Underworld stinks!!!

true

definitely not the worst game. i liked it, it was just way too short though.

A quick question about the PS3 blu-ray drive?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

How does the quality of HD movies played on the ps3 hold up with those played on Blu-ray only players? Is there a notable difference? And if I play a standard definition dvd on the ps3 will the quality be unconverted to 1080p like those other blu-ray players do? Thanks to all who answered.

They are the same, and in fact, because the PS3 is the first Blu-ray player on the market, the PS3 gets any and all updates before any stand alone Blu-ray player does (PS3 was first to have BD-Live). The PS3 also has every Blu-ray feature possible (not all stand alone Blu-ray players have every feature).

The PS3 does up-convert all DVD movies, just like an up-convert DVD player or stand alone Blu-ray player does.

The PS3 is the best Blu-ray player on the market, and oh yeah, it plays games, too, along with a whole lot of other stuff.

if someone on here tells you that there is not a noticable difference and that makes you not end up getting a PS3 or a blu-ray disc player u will be kicking yur self for ages after trust me wen they say the picturs is 5x better and the soundis 8x better they mean it i went to my grannys the other day and my cousin ut on pirates ofthe carribean 3 on and it was a blu-ray and it was practically picture perfect

ps3 is one of the best blu-ray players on the market

it can upscale dvd to 1080p

also ps3 can play cd, dvd and of course blu-ray

Is anybody as excited as I am about the upcoming ps3 slim?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

360 owners should be jealous. sony fan boys will be happy . The price is now $299.99 for 120 gb. Obviously way better than paying $400 previously for the 80gb model, which too is now $299.99. plus blu ray player!

Yea, I still will pick the 80Gb over the slim, 80Gb is such a sexy looking console, compare to the slim version.... but definitely them xbox fan boys are going to become ps3 fan boys, soo prepare to see a lot of ppl in the playstation section

I would pick the slim over the fat ones.

Its the 120 gb PS3 but a slimier version of it,

It has better cooling and uses less power, and will probably be slightly faster then the old ones.

Yo is a ps3 worth 160 bucks?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

because there is one at this pawn shop for 160

I bought one for 600$ and still say it was worth it... It's a freakin steal at 160 bucks (well if it's working that is)

it depends since it is so cheap there might be something wrong with it cause usually they go for about 399 each so i would ask the that works at the pawn shop if it is any thing major wrong with it but if it is not nothing major wrong with it i would buy even if it only had a few scratches i would still buy it but if it is something else wrong with it dont waste your money buying it just save up your money and buy a new one

You should test it out and make sure it works. it also depends on how many GBs it is. The old 60GB ps3 had problems. The new ps3 slim is $300 and coming out september 1st. It is 120GB.

i am not sure but its a good deal if you are getting it for 160.but make sure its not second hand .and check the warranty card. And most importantly get it checked on the shop itself before taking it home.

Depends... The new PS3 slim which has a 120gb harddrive costs 300$ new. So get the new one: smaller and probably more memory.

if it works .......buy it up and resell it on ebay!! make a good 150 bucks!

$150!?!? If it works get it. That's 50% off!

What is the PS3 game sharing policy?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

Can you share a game five times each or 5 times for each system?

Sony doesn't want you sharing your content with other PSN users. Their intent was for you to personally use your content on different machines if you're using a friend's PS3 or there are multiple consoles in your home. Be aware that you will get banned if Sony finds out you are sharing your content with others.

The deal is your PSN ID and content can be used on 5 PS3 machines at once.

Should i get the new ps3 slim or the old one?

2009-08-21T22:31:00.001-07:00

May be...

i like the old ps3 because of all the cool stuff you can do with it using linux

but u hear that with the new slim it will not have all the cool features

but it comes with more gigs and it cost the same

The new model is smaller, uses less energy and has a bigger hard drive.

The best deal, if you like the features in the older model, would be to get a 40GB version and upgrade the hard drive. You could get a 120GB laptop drive and you'd still pay less.

The fact that you can't install Linux on the new PS3 Slim is not a big deal really unless you did plan on doing that. If you did install linux it basically becomes a linux box and no longer a playstation. You can't play PS3 games on it then. You could buy a PC without an OS, keyboard, mouse and monitor that out performs the PS3 and install linux on it for under $400 (Linux won't take advantage of the cell processor fully).

The PS3 Slim will not take as much power as the PS3's right now.

Over 1/3 of power has been cut off, which does save a lot of money if you play the PS3 quite often.

Also, the PS3 Slim's heat is also reduced by 1/3 of the original PS3, which will mean that the chances of yoru PS3 overheating or getting hardware fail has been cut to around 33% - Great!

So I do recommend a PS3 Slim but maybe wait 1 week after its release since the PS2 Slim didn't turn out to be so great at first.

i would recomend the slim it has more memory and all the other features the other one had ........... by the way if u want it free or want free ps3 games u can go here --> http://www.prizerebel.com/index.php?r=1448646 this website's awsome its were i get all of my games and accesories try it out i can get a free game every week its no scam really

The PS3 slim is still new. I prefer if you wait just to hear more about it because maybe you will have troubles with it. Anyway it's smaller and got more memory also cheaper then why not.

im thinking about that too. i bought the ps3 the fat one yesterday and i dont know if want to return it and get the slim one

everyone is asking tht question i asked tht question too the ps3 is really ugly i recomend the ps3 it looks better and u dont really need more memory but its ur choice

i say get the new one bc of more memory smaller weighs less uses less energy and no fingerprints but can you tell me what linux does or what it is

slim definalttly its wat better

theres a slim PS3???

idk i got mine the 1st day it came out

PS3 Slim!

OMG HELP, I VACUUMED MY...?

2009-08-20T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

MY PS3.

and that thing is so expensive!!!!!

HOW DO I GET IT OUT OF MY VACCUM CLEANER

I love how half of these answers are actually trying to be serious and logical. That's hilarious!!

Well I 'm shocked that the Ps3 fit in the vaccum cleaner but don't worry find the switch on the vacuum and open it up because you have to empty vacuums so then open it and pull it out. if it'a an old one you might have to rip the vacuum bag open to get it if you have a bag that is.

Well, it depends. Is it central vac (like you just plug the hose into your wall and it takes all the crap you vacuum up to some big trash can thing) or is it a mobile one? If its central vac, I would recommend going to the basement to find the trash can, open it and receive your dusty piece of equipment. If its a mobile, you're ******.

wow... well if you can really vaccum up a ps3 simply take off the front of your vaccume and get it out of the bag or container which ever kind of vaccum you have...but if the wires are what u vacumed turn the vaccum on and pull out the cords itll make an awful smell but they should come right out with a couple of tugs :)

It really depends on your vacuum cleaner. But you need to open the bag (that all the stuff it sucks up goes to) and look for it. One time I sucked up part of my bed skirt, and it starting smoking, it scared me so bad, but now its just a funny story. I hope you get it out!

you vacumed the whole PS3 up? that seems pretty impossible, but normally you can open up the vacum cleaner to empty the trash inside it, if it is stuck in side the tube then you are going to have to cut through it to get it out.

if its a canister empty it on top of newpaper and swift through it. same for the bag. if you cant find it trace the path of the trash your vacume picks up. it could be lodged in the vacume itself. most of the lines can be cleaned or poked out with a clothes hanger.

If i were you i would just cut open you cleaner get your game . its worth it besaue it is expensive and one way or the other you are going to need and realy want that psp so cut it or ask for help by you mom or dad

one time i vaccuumed a pair of noise cancelling headphones. the vaccuum tore it up so i had to get them out and throw them away :(

take out the bag that you take out to throw away. it'll be in there with everything else you vaccuum up

sorry :/

IDIOT... how freakin big is your vacuum??.... anyway, i suggest opening up the filter or the bag and see if its in there. If not you might have to cut the entry way, that's if it's not in 1 million pieces by now.

There is a place on the vacuum and it lifts up lift it up and there is a bag inside the vacuum just look inside the bag and your ps3 will be inside there ! =]

You're PS3 Or PSP? I don't think a PS3 Could fit in a vacuum. Just open up the zipper in the back, and take out the bag. It will be in there. If you used a Wet Vacuum, Just open up the top.

1. Unplug the vacuum

2. Rotate the plug 180 degrees

3. Plug it back in.

4. It should now blow instead of suck. Keep blowing until it comes out.

Okay no worries. Open the front of the vaccum. Take out the bag. Cut the bag open and (with gloves) dig through the stuff to find the ps3. Goodluck :D

YOU ARE RETARDED!

everyone knows if you get a good jack hammer, you can drill a hole right through the vacuum and it should just be sitting there(:

goodluck!

do u mean psp because a ps3 is very big and i dont see how that can get vaccum but find out where the bag thing is and take it out from there or take the whole vaccum apart

How big is your vaccum???

just open the hover back and just rub the dirt of with dry cloth

then leave it in a cool dry place for about 2 days

what ? just open it and get it out the go to the place that you get it from and ask hem to clean it for you

if its a vaccum like mine you can ask your parents to open it up and get your PS3 out in no time flat. DONT ASK YOUR PARENTS TO DUMP IT IN THE TRASH CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hope you get it out.

send me your vaccum and ill get the ps3 out and then ill send back the vaccum

i doubt this really happened but open the vaccum cleaner then get a knife and rip the bag and take it out

You take out the garbage bag. It'd be easier to help if you told us what kind of vacuum it is, although I'm pretty sure that's just impossible.

How da crap you sweep up that thing? Just grab a sledge hammer & wack it open!

How did you vacuum your PS3??? If it was a psp, I could understand. You just need to open the vacuum and empty the bag.

I think the vacuum really was stuck somewhere else.

Next time be more careful and take care of your things.

yo obivosuly di not vaccuum up your ps2 amfgggg.

break the d@mn thing. DUH! PS3's are expensive

You vacuumed the whole ps3? Doubt it....

open it up and search through the dirt. if it is in the vacuum itself take it apart

haha.

**** one,dude.

Just open the vacuum up like you were taking out some dirt :)

Question on the Persona (FES) series for PS2?

2009-08-20T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

I'm planning to get Person 3 (FES) and Persona 4 soon. I'm new to the series and I've noticed for the PS2 console, there is a Persona 3 and a Persona 3 FES. Can anyone explain what the difference is between the two? And does it matter which order you play in? Thanks for any help.

order doesn't matter.

there isn't too much of a difference really between 3 and 3 FES. 3 is the original game while FES is the original game (The Journey) with new Personas, extra social links and an additional 30+ hours of gameplay (The Answer). so FES could run you at least 130 hours. I played for around 200 hours.

does anyone know?.....

Its going to be slimmer and a couple of new features on the home menu. Also, 120GB.

btw, nice avatar

Playstation 3 Slim on August 18, 2009 at the Sony Gamescom press conference. It will feature an upgradeable 120GB hard drive and is 33% smaller, 36% lighter, and consumes 34% less power than previous models.The PS3 Slim will also include support for BRAVIA Sync allowing control of the PS3 Slim over HDMI and will run quieter than previous PS3 models.The PS3 Slim will focus on delivering games and other entertainment content and removes the feature to install other Operating Systems to the PS3 Slim.

So its lighter, uses les power, smaller, and quieter than the original PS3

Hope this helps!

New PS3 Slim

slimmer, lighter PS3 system. 33% smaller, and 36% lighter.

120GB HDD for storing games, music, videos, and photos

Built-in Wi-Fi and Blu-ray player

Free PlayStation Network membership

Plays DVDs and CDs

Slim obviously states it will be a slimmer version but will probably come with additional characteristics or so.

if you mean the original ps3 as in the first model like the 60gb and 20gb then no but if you just mean the ps3 fat in general yes exccept it removes install other os so no more linux

You will probably need to fit it with a bigger fan as it may overheat faster than the regular Ps3

No its lighter and slimmer And it doesnt Look as Good as original

its exactly the same

No, from what I hear it's 36% smaller statistic wise.

The 80GB versions have also been reduced to $300. Check shops that keep up to date with their pricing. Like Best Buy, Gamestop or Amazon.

Yes the new slim will run 299 but the cureent price is roughly $400 depends on what package you get though. I would wait and buy the slim for sure

300 slim and fat

the normal prob bout 180

It said that the PS3 slim has built in wi-fi so does this mean that I can access the internet automatically?

2009-08-19T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

Just a simple question in which I found out that the new PS3 Slim is coming out September 1st. I was just wondering if I need all those cables and stuff to access the internet on my PS3 Slim?

In all of the PS3 models, wi-fi is built in. If you have an internet router, then you can connect it with the PS3(all models). You can also go and take advantage of the web browser on the PS3(all models). I think you'd have a better time on your desktop or laptop, but if your desperate.

Unless you program it to not do so, every time you turn on the PS3 it logs on into the internet. No router, use an ethernet cable.

Well, you will need your own internet service and a wireless network. Or you could use a wireless network in the surrounding area (if you have their network password or it doesn't have any wireless security). You don't just plug the power cord in and automatically get wireless internet, if that's what you're thinking.

You have a modem. Its either connected to a wireless router that send out wireless signals or the modem itself is wireless and sends out wireless signals.

sorry to tell you but the ps3 slim is not even definate yet they havnt officially announced it so theres no tech specs realeased but more than likely it will be wifi just like the normal ps3 so if you have wireless internet in your house then the ps3 can connect to it. but technically there is no ps3 slim yet so ide hold my breath.

No, you don't all ps3's are wireless. You can connect to the internet wirelessly. Yes you access automatically but, you have conntect it to a connection but you can do that wirelessly.

you dont need cables anyway. the ps3 is wireless

Should I get Call of Duty 4 or pre-order Uncharted 2?

2009-08-19T22:31:00.001-07:00

May be...

I want to play Call of Duty 4 before getting Modern Warfare 2, but I think that might risk my oppotunity to pre-order Uncharted 2. But I was going to pre-order 3 games. The reason I'm saying this is because I want LittleBigPlanet GOTY edition and its $60. If I get CoD4 I could probably only pre-order 2 games and the 3 main games I want are Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, and Demons Soul's.

Rent CoD4, Buy Uncharted 2

Simple ;)

Uncharted 2.

Call of Duty kinda made history but this year and next year, games have over-taken Call of Duty.

TBH, I recommend that you save your money and DON'T buy Modern Warfare 2 but that's totally up to you.

But yeah, get Uncharted 2. Call of Duty 4 will just make you pull your hair out when you hit all 4 shots of shotgun and you get pistol-killed.

Honestly, I wouldn't get CoD4 instead of Uncharted 2. CoD4 for starters is getting fairly old. Plus, ever since it was released, so many amazing FPS games were released that it simply doesn't live up to. Granted it's a great game, but not interesting anymore.

Uncharted 2 on the other hand is an extremely promising game and so far, most impressive game I've seen this year. If I were you I'd preorder it instead.

COD4 is a sick game man i have it sealed for a month but i aint playin it until i beat R6 i no i will hate R6 once i start playin COD4

anyways i bet there wont b much of a differnce with 2 and first one in da end of da day its up to u

Uncharted 2. just pre-order it for $5...then pay the rest when it comes out.

In the mean time...go RENT Modern Warfare. Then that way you can save money and get the games that you want.

I say get Uncharted 2 CoD4 is'nt that amazing anymore... since many hackers and glitchers.... CoD WAW on the other hand is better (if you don't have it though).

I really hope CoD MW 2 will be patched on regular bases to prevent glitchers :/

just leave littlebigplanet out of it or Demon's souls and get both of them i think you could wait 1 more year for LBP and you can wait for Demon's Souls too

CoD4 because like the other guy said, it made gaming history. LOTS of people play it everyday and it will get you prepared for CoD:MW2.

get a preowned cod4 it will be 20$

PS3 Slim Same Features, But HDD Changable ?

2009-08-18T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

http://www.pcworld.com/article/170393/gd…

There isn't anything that suggest it isn't changable. And only a 34% reduction in size? I don't think that would require a different type of hard drive.

according to that official picture: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/… , there appears to be a removable plate that gives access to the HDD

Probably the same way as the fat PS3. Screw the side open, blah, blah, blah...Not all simple and easy like the Xbox.

IT's been moved to the front.

Opposite side of the USB ports.

PS3 Slim Not As Small As i Though?

http://blastmagazine.com/the-magazine/ga…

Well, 34% isn't too much.

Idk wtf el manico is talking about. No disc based games for ps3 slim? That is entirely untrue. He is thinking of the new psp go, not the ps3 slim.

Anywho, the original ps3 is a monster and any size reduction is a good thing. Not to mention it comes with a 120 gig hdd standard and uses 34% less power

It's actually wider than the original.

Its not to small, but none the less smaller.

the original is way better

no its not small and you cant buy disk based games for it too so you will have to buy all new games for it so do like me and get an ipod touch

PS3 Price Cuts True????????

2009-08-18T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

Alright.I live in Canada, and will the ps3 price cuts work for Canada-Toronto? And will it work for the slim as well as the fat ps3? 10PTS

Yes, it's true. Effectively immediately, all PlayStation 3 consoles are $299 EVERYWHERE.

Yup starts tomorrow. $100 off regular prices for the fat ps3.

Slim ps3 will be $299 and is released in October.

I'm using American dollars and not sure how exactly that will translate into Canadian dollars but I'm sure the discount is comparable.

Price cut starts Worldwide tomorrow. Some retailers will sell it to you and give you back $100 if they will start the price cut tomorrow like they are supposed to.

YEA ISN'T IT GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS3 slim vs xbox 360 elite?

2009-08-18T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

So I heard that there was gonna be a ps3 slim and i ws excited about it. However, i also heard that ps3 doesn't really have many good games. Also, the price is cheaper by a hundred dollars... What should i buy!!!!!!

Like Sarcastic Joker said, they both should be priced at $299. Rumours are saying the Xbox 360 Elite will keep it's same specs, just a price drop.

In the actually boxes you would most likely get:

Xbox 360 Elite 120GB hard drive

-HD Cables

-HDMI Cables

-Power Cable

-Black Headset

and maybe Fable 2 and Halo 3 ( The current ones come with those games)

PlayStation 3 Slim 120GB Hard drive

Power Cables

USB Charger

standard cables

So you would get more in the actual xbox 360 box then Ps3 box how ever what may be a better reason for a Ps3 is:

Blueray-HD Movies and now games will be able to be put on disc with 50GB of space. Game developers are using more and more space now so Blu-ray does come in handy.

Built In wifi- If you have a wireless network & want to add your console to the network a Ps3 has this built in. For the xbox 360 elite you would dish out $100. So this could should be a factor for you if you need wifi.

Free online play- For xbox live you pay $50 a year,for PlayStation Network it's free. The main difference between both is you get some what more features on Xbox Live but on PSN ( or atleast on paper) you should be getting a better connection. This is because PSN uses dedicated servers, so if one person lags, not everyone does. The opposite is for Xbox Live.

Games selection*-There are more games to choose from on Xbox 360 and extra content tends to be on xbox 360 first ( like the Fallout 3 content). Xbox 360 has more games because of the Arcade games. Games though are a PREFERENCE so you may like some games more then others but for the most part both consoles have great games.

and more...

I personally think you will be happy with either console you get because both have amazing games,great features, and will give you hours of entertainment.

They are basically the same price now. PS3 includes free Wifi [Pay $100 on 360], Free online gaming [$50 a year on 360] and comes with free USB cable to charge your controller [$30 on 360]

As you can see, you will pay more on 360. PS3 also includes free Blu-Ray player and internet browser, those you can't find on 360.

The games are basically even, only thing that seperates them are exclusives. I can do a really short one for you right now.

360

Halo3 - Shooter

Gears - Shooter

Left4Dead - Shooter

Forza - Racing

PS3

Killzone - Shooter

Resistance - Shooter

Metal Gear Solid 4 - Stealth Action

LittleBigPlanet - Platformer

God of War - Action Hack&Slash

Uncharted - Adventure

Ratchet and Clank - Platformer

Gran Turismo 5 - Racing

Incorrect about the "doesn't really have many good games."

Both should be priced at $299. I dunno if Microsoft has had its conference yet, but a lot of people are confirming that both consoles will be priced at $299.

PS3 has always given you more value for you money from day one. More people are gonna realize this now that its cheaper.

http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/load_configuration.do?destination=review&config_id=3266024

Yeah, those specs look good enough to play Sims 3, also on the game you can always configure the settings of the graphics and such to make gameplay better. I have a laptop with a lower processor (2.0 gHz) and RAM (2 GB) and it works perfectly after I adjusted the settings and the graphics still look good. So you should have no problem with playing.

Yes. Those specs are better than mine and it plays fine for me. You can look at the requirements in the link below.

HDMI w/ Optical Cable and PS3?

2009-08-17T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

Need help getting 5.1 Surround Sound and keeping HD graphics for my PS3 using an old receiver with no HDMI Output.

Alright, I have an old Sony receiver with no HDMI output. I'm using a Samsung HD TV which supports HDMI but recently I became interested in installing some of my old surround sound speakers along with my PS3/TV to enhance my gaming experience.

Is it possible for me to get surround sound on my PS3 with an old receiver? If so, how? Would I have to buy an optical cable? How would I make my settings on my PS3 and how would I configure the wires?

Thanks a bunch!

The PS3 does not require you to use the HDMI for both video and sound. You can use the HDMI for video, but use the Optical or RCA for sound if you wish. Sony did this for people like you who want to enjoy the PS3 on receivers that don't support HDMI. You just go to the Sound Settings and choose the connection type you want to use, just like the Display settings.

Besides, an HDMI is not required for 5.1 surround sound. Hell, the PS3's RCA cables will give you 5.1 surround, let alone Optical.

EDIT: Do you really need step-by-step instructions for the PS3 menu setup? I mean, its pretty straightforward.

As for the actual cable connection, you hook up the video cable (HDMI) to the TV and the whatever sound cable you choose to your A/V receiver. You don't connect the sound cable to the TV unless you want the sound from your TV, and frankly, I don't know why you'd want TV sound if you're using an A/V receiver.

you use an optical cable and select the hdmi as video output and optical cable as audio output in settings

connect both cables to the ps3 then the hdmi cable to the tv and the optical cable to the amp then go to settings and select which output to use for video and audio respectively

Playstation 3 question?

2009-08-17T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

i am 100% sure im getting a ps3. but if im going to be the only one using it should i save some money and get a 40gb instead of a 80gb?

i prolly wont use all 80gb's by myself

thats ur call

if u are going to play alone in the ps3 and feel that the 40GB is enough then get the 40 GB model

but just to give u info : each game for the ps3 takes at least 4GB when installing it to the ps3 so u can play

I'd say go ahead and grap the 80 GB anyway just in the case that you download demos and get several games. The firmware updates alone take up several GB of space, so it is better to have as much space as possible, unless you want to obssess over managing your HDD space.

Of course, if you're only going to get a couple of games then you'd be just as good with 40 GB, but it's a risk as t won't be under warranty from Sony. Personally, I advise against buying used game consoles; the lack of warranty is a very serious and potentially expensive issue. The 80 GB version (non backward compatible) comes with a 1-year guaranteed replacement/repair warranty if something goes wrong. In my opinion, this warranty is at least worth $70 in itself.

the 40 gig isn't available unless you find one online

only 80 and 160 gig consoles are sold now

you can easily use 80 gigabytes if you download games , add-ons and movies plus game installs and updates use from 1-4 gigabytes each but the hdd is user upgraded easily to a larger one later

There is no place to buy the 40gb unless its used.

80gb or 160gb is the only two models.

But Sony is suppose to announce this week

1. A new slim 80gb PS3

2. A price cut on this new 80gb

It should be 299 soon.

go for the 80gb, i just got my ps3 and already used 20gb, with the firmware, 2 demoms, pshome and life with ps

add me when u get it

hari_3282

40GB's aren't produced any more, go for the 80gb.

I want to delete one of my PSN accounts or.....?

2009-08-17T22:31:00.007-07:00

I made a PSN account that has the address of a hotel in the U.S just so that I can buy map pack 3 for Call of duty World at War. I bought a PSN card in the U.S, when I tried the card in my hometown in Canada, it couldn't work. So I made a U.S account, and downloaded map pack 3. I wasn't sure if it's legal using an adress of a hotel without permission, so if it isin't, how can I delete the account, or how can I change the address to my own. Furthermore, for people who move from Canada to U.S or even the other way around, how would they change their PSN address? Oh and by the way if it's actually legal, can someone give me proof?

don't worry about changing the address , nothing will happen to you , without a u.s. address the account won't work

you can't delete the account , if you do you can't use the map pack

people all over the world do this - I have accounts from 5 countries because all have different things available at their playstation stores

At the moment, I'm trying to play Spyro, Year Of The Dragon. I turned the console on with the game, then it made this horrifying scratching noise. Then the title screen came up- I thought nothing was wrong. After that, I got a blue screen with four bubbles, and in the top right corner it says "MAIN MENU", though it isn't selectable. The two options that are, say "MEMORY CARD" and "CD PLAYER". I've clicked them both, and it just directs me to the memory card data.

I looked multiple times in the Playstation, there isn't anything wedged in a crack, it's good as new. The CD Is in correctly, it's not upside down.

This is also working with every other game I put in the Playstation, so don't just say "Try another game", it will not work.

I've also waited for about an hour and a half now, and nothing has changed.

Please help!!! All answers appriciated.

Thank you!

*Mizore

make sure the disk is totally clean and make sure you place it in the playstation firmly and push it down gently. Then gently shut the lid and see if its any better. If not try gently rubbing the lazer with a dry cloth.

Why doesn't anything show up on my tv when I turn on my ps3?

2009-08-17T22:31:00.001-07:00

Ok so I bought an 80gb ps3 on craigslist.com and it is broken. I am using av cables. I pluged it to the tv and to the ps3 and when I turn on my ps3 nothing shows up on the tv. I got some new av cables and same thing happens. The ps3 turns on, but nothing shows up and no sound. What is wrong? Also if I go to like gamespot or gamecrazy how much would it cost to fix it?

it could be set up for HDMI tv what u want to do is hold down the power button (glows red when the systen is turned on) till you hear it beep 2 or 3 times this will reset the system to factory settings. if that dosent work try it while system is on and running (glows blue/green) then turn back on. good trick if going to be used on both HD and AV tvs

berfor you go and spend any money try changing the imput settings on our tv itself you may jut be on the wrong imput setting in which case you only need to change it and it will work also if you using an hd tv try getting an hdmi cable

maybe its the TV or its the ps3 system itself

What kind of HDD can I install in my PS3?

2009-08-16T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

After some research I've found out that:

-the PS3 takes max 500 GB HDD

-5400 rpm is smarter than 7200rpm since it's less likely to overheat.

-it needs to be a 2,5" Serial-ATA (SATA) drive

my question is this:

There are two different types of SATA-HDD, the serial-ATA 150 and serial-ATA 300. Which one is better, and which is supported by the PS3?

The 150 and 300 is the amount of the data throughput and is measured in Mb/s (Megabits per second). It is also stated as 1.5 Gb/s and 3 Gb/s (Gigabits per second), instead of 150 and 300. A 300 is better than a 150.

The PS3 uses a 150 Mb/s as its OEM HDD, but can use a 300 Mb/s. The difference is how much data can transfer at one time, not the speed at which it transfers. Think of it like this. Normally one person can walk through a door at a time (front door for example). If you use the garage door instead of the front door, more people can walk through it at the same time (side by side). You can walk through the door slow (5400 RPM HDD) or fast (7200 RPM HDD), but the speed at which you walk through the door doesn't effect how many people (150 Mb/s or 300 Mb/s) can walk through the door.

Either one will work with your PS3, the 300 is better, but not necessary.

Any 2.5 inch SATA laptop HDD will work as long as it has 5400 rpm !

hmm doesnt mater i believe hmm u can call gamestop and ask them or call sony

Help with PS3 DLC support?

2009-08-16T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

I didn't get DLC before on my PS3. But soon, I'll have my first. I will be getting the South Central pack for Midnight Club. After the DLC is downloaded, is there a particular procedure to get it working?

If you download the content in the background, then you will need to install it after it is finished downloading (it will be below your game disc icon). If you watch it download, it will install itself when it is finished downloading.

Once the DLC is installed, start the game and it is available. If you are playing the game while it is downloading, you must quit the game and restart it for the content to become available.

When you go to the game area, you may see the DLC with a bubble around it to say that it needs to be installed. Just click on it to install it and it will work from there.

PS3 Blu-Ray Remote. Yay or Nay?

Should or Shouldn't I get it?

yay, its really nice to be able to control you ps3 without the usual gaming controller.

Yay. The PS3 Blu-Ray is quite handy and cool.

It has more features on it than the standard controller, so you can flick through movies and other videos very easily.

If you won't mind spending the money, then go for it.

Hope this helps!

I bought it, because I watch a lot of movies on the PS3. It really makes it alot easier. If you want to optimize your PS3 Blu Ray Player, get this remote. I got it on Amazon for $20 with free shipping and no tax.

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss?url=se…

i bout it and looking back its not a total waste but i can definitely see myself using 40$for something much more useful because it doesn't do anything the regular remote does except it looks more like a blu-ray remote thats about it

I need a quick decision. THE SHOW 09 or COD5. No comparison.?

Ok my friend wants me to get cod5 so we can play together and kill zombies. But i told him i would get it today but i dont really want to get it because im not into those ww2 games. i like modern warfare. another thing is that MW2 is coming out in 3 months and to me theres no point in already getting cod5, i mean once people get MW2 they will probably stop playing cod5. then i want to get The show 09 which i heard is a good game. but i dont want to pay 60 bucks for a sport game which they make every year. so what would you guys do in my position. ASAP.

get the show 08. graphics prob better on 09 but i read a review that said check swinging was very irregular on 09. when i play 08 i check swing roughly 10% of pitches seen. so for me that was a deal breaker. codwaw was good for online but nazis gets old fast. if you're not into ww2 games don't buy a game to make your friend happy. mw2is going to be sick. hey baseball, any ww2 rpg you'd care to recommend?

I'd say The show 09, although I love the WW2 RPG games, it wasnt something i would encourage to others.

I will get MW2 no doubt. Prestige Edition

Tell him to get COD 4

Difference between original ps2 multi tap and new slimline mult-tap?

i have a ps2 slim(new version of the ps2) and i heard an old ps2 multi tap wont work with the new ps2

it would be great if someone could also add pictures

You can tell the difference with how they look, the fat version has the memory card slot further out than the controller slot. The slim version has the memory card slot and controller card slot about the same distance.

Both multi-taps are the same distance apart height wise, but the controller portion comes out further on the slim version (fat version doesn't come out as far).

PS2 fat multi-tap (which is compatible with a PS1): http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-2-Mult… On this picture, the bottom part (controller port) is shorter than the top part (memory card port).

PS2 slim multi-tap: http://www.amazon.com/New-Sony-Playstati… On this picture, the top part (memory card port) is about the same distance as the bottom part (controller port).

In the second picture the cable is upside down. To make sure the multi-tap is compatible with your PS2, make sure it says it is for model numbers 70000 and 90000. These are both the slim model versions, and the only versions the slim multi-tap will work with (and make sure the two ports are close to the same length, not offset like a step).

it won't, the gap distance between the mem card and controller is too wide

Hey my ps3 broke an i went to put my hard drive in my friends PS3 but...?

2009-08-15T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

it says i have to reformat it but the way we even out our hard drives in are diffrent on our systems could his PS3 for any reason be doin it

an it wasnt just the hard drive in my PS3 when it broke my other one wouldnt either our hard drives are seagate mine

hitachi his

both came with the PS3 I need help

PS3 hard drives are locked to the console that they were originally formatted in (by serial number). You can't just move it from system to system like you can a 360 hard drive.

Your grammar and the way you phrased your words heavily confused me but I think that I know your problem.

When your PS3 hard drive is put into another PS3 (20,40,60,80,120GB - it doesn't matter, if it's different) then on the other PS3 it will ask to format your HDD.

So there's no point trying, but since your PS3 has broken, there's small chance of you getting your saves back anyway.

I have a big Ps3 problem! please look at the details and help me out!?

I need a little advice-i'm leaving to Sri Lanka for a year from the U.K. and want to buy a ps3. I really need someone to tell me a).if I should buy it here or if it is available at Heathrow airport duty free for cheaper. b).whether I should wait until it gets cheaper and c).whether it will get damaged by Sri Lanakan weather,dust and voltage fluctuations.I would really appreciate an answer.Thank You in advance and no i'm not interested in any other device :)

prolly, because Sri Lanka is in Asia the region for your PS3 will be different from the one in UK, so, if you buy is in Sri Lanka you wont be able to buy any game in the UK.. b'cause it wont play..

So it's better for you to buy it in UK, and buy also some games..

About the cheaper thing.. videogames are always getting cheaper.. you are the one to decide if you should buy it now, or wait for a cheaper one.. but don't wait too long, 'cause if you do, it will prolly release another better and more expensive one.. Think about it..

Don't worry about the whether.. the PS3 resists to a lot of situations.. they can't make one saying that is not made to play in some place... you know what i mean?

Hope i helped..

sorry about my english.. im from brazil..

Ps3 games from the uk WILL play on an Asian ps3, if you have got an HD tv. Ok, have you looked what price the ps3 is in sri lanka, because if you buy it in the uk, you will need a volatge converter which can be quite expensive

Is this PS3 bundle worth it ?

2009-08-15T22:31:00.007-07:00

I'm getting an 80gb PS3 with , Fight Night Round 4, Infamous, COD:4, Gran Turismo 5 : Prologue ( which I already have so will sell) and a SIXAXIS Controller for my birthday for £349.99 from GAME. Is it worth it and how much will Gran Turismo 5 : Prologue sell for unopened .

Also it says it is £79.99 under RRP

Considering it would be $349.99 I'd say yea because a ps3 by its self is $399.99. Though sony might announce a price cut next week along with the PS3 slim and others.

The ps3 slim is merely a rumor and we know NOTHING about it.

That bundle you listed should be worth way more. You're getting one great deal there.

Wait a while, there is rumours that there will be a price drop during August.

Which of the upcoming psp games should i get?

2009-08-15T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

socom 3, little big planet, motor storm, gran tourismo, soul caliber legends, lego hp or star wars battlefront elite squad. i can choos 2 of those.

Out of those, get Gran Turismo and Littlebigplanet.

Try to get Motorstorm if possible.

And if you're a Metal Gear Solid fan, you probably have heard of MGS: Peace Walker.

socom 3 is the way to go if you want a sick online game to play. Online for socom 2 there are still maybe 6,000 people online everyday. It should be good.

I can see every friend but it says they are all offline, even though i know for a fact that some are on. When i go into a game such as call of duty world at war and try to invite a friend, i cant because it says i have no friends currently online. Wierd thing is that i just randomly pressed find game in nazi zombies and it joined a game where my friend was! pretty lucky. but anyways how do i fix this?? i tried restarting the ps3, internet router, and everything. And is anyone else still getting double xp? i am:) it was supposed to end thursday!

Just delete your comment in your PS3

I had the same problem as you did

i have a question im doing a glitch on der reise (dont stop reading IM not a nerd) i was wondering how long can i keep my PS3 on without it overheating. (NOTICE if u want to know glitch add autoturdgun55

ehh its a small problem. It happens to everyone including me. One of my friends enters the text chat and my friend list says offline when they really are online. I was the first person to do this and even my friends had this problem.

It'll fix by itself sooner or later.

its probably because they didnt accept your friend request

Whats a good downloadable PS3 game for 10 dollars or less?

2009-08-15T22:31:00.001-07:00

May be...

I got a 10 dollar playstation card for use on the downloadable games but there's so many games offered. Whats a good one in your opinion?

$10 PSN Card?...sweet!

some good PSN games are

Shatter: $7.99 it is amazing. its like an old brick game. not sure if you are familiar with those. you have to stop the ball from falling, and have to break all the bricks. there are new functions like pushing and pulling the ball. very nice and recommended.

Flower: $9.99

I love this game. its so unique and nice. you are a petal and the whole purpose is to go around and wake other flowers. awesome game.

Namco Musuem Essentials $9.99

great collection of old classics like Xevious, and Pacman. 6 games in total.

Super Stardust HD $9.99

Here is another great game. I loved this game when it first came out. still play it to get some trophies. lol if you like arcade shooters, then get this.

Burn Zombie Burn $9.99

cant say much about this one, I have it, but never got the time to play it, but I heard its real addicting and fun.

Age of Booty $9.99 this game sooo addcting. if I start playing it, I cant get myself to stop playing it. haha plus the best part- all the DLC maps are free. xD

If you want, there are some PSN Classics like Crash, Rainbow Six, Final Fantasy 7, and Medal of Honor, Metal Gear Solid, and a lot more.

If you want, you can also download some games for $4.99. I believe I have all the $4.99 games except for Gunstar Heroes, and the Buzz games. the best from all of them is wolfenstein.

Here are the best $10 games:

Super Stardust HD ($5). Amazing game for geometry wars or asteroids lovers. Very addicting for points whores.

Wipeout HD (I think it's $10 now). Very good value and an amazing racing game.

Flower ($10). One of the most unique and relaxing games ever.

Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest for Booty ($10). Five hours of ratchet and clank for ten dollars? Well worth it.

Pixeljunk Monsters (I think $5). The most addicting tower defence game ever made.

Shatter ($8). Best brick breaking game ever made.

well there is

Mortal Kombat 2 it is pretty fun especially with the online

Megaman 9 the game is pretty fun but also a challenge Capcom decided to make it challenging

Bomberman Ultra if you love bomberman then you will like this one packed with more than 60 costumes, crazy power-ups and online it is pretty fun in my opinion

there are also classic PS1 games like Street Fighter, Crash Bandicoot, and Metal Gear Solid

only thing is do not get Rag Doll Kung Fu even though i got it for free it is not worth it not even free

if you got any questions feel free to send me a message

burn zombies burn is okay

Flower

Shatter. its kind of like peggle or brickbreaker if you ever played those and its only $8

PlayStation 3 store games searching option?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.011-07:00

anyone know how to get more games at the ps3 store to show up or is there a search game option? or we stuck with the old games at the online store till they decide to put more games in for purchase? i'm really looking forward to download some great ps1 hit.

Create a sub-account for hong kong so you get access to tons of ps1,ps3 games. There is even a seperate search function for demos! And the hong kong psn store is all in English, so it's bloody easy to use. And it's perfectly legal, so no worries

Purchase is nicer than anyone

Assassin's creed PS3 glitch?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

when Altair finishes his conversation with the Bureau Leader about Tamir, the Bureau Leader says "I give you leave" but it does not return to the game, it stays in the video screen!

has anyone else had this glitch? is there a way around it?

Sorry I haven't seen this before but I think you should check your disc for scratches.If you do find some you can look online for methods of cleaning. The best I've found is to use tooth paste on the disc or even brasso for really bad scratches. Basically a scratch doesn't harm a disc it just is like placing an obstacle in front of the disc that pervents the laser from reading the data from the disc (any format of disc i.e.dvd, cd,br-d, hd-dvd etc). Basically brasso and toothpaste are two of many lite acid liquids that dissolve plastic around the scratch to make it clear again. This is fully true and using this method has saved many of my games, dvds etc.

You also could have a dirty laser so you can pick up special dvds from hmv etc with brushes that clean the laser. This also works.

It could also be a saved game glitch i.e. a corrupt game save. This happens to me alot in FC2 but it happens in every game. But don't delete the saved game unless you are sure it is this.

And finally it could be just a general game glitch. in which case I advice you to do the game again and try again. If it is a game glitch there is a possibility it may be patched (fixed).

Hope I helped and you fix the problem.

Any problems I should be aware of about PS3?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

My wife just bought me a PS3 for our anniversary. I've already learned I cannot play any of my PS2 games on it which sucks. But I'm curious what other issues I should be aware of about the system. BTW, I'm running it offline (no internet connection).

If you purchased an 80 GB PS3, there are some things you need to aware of:

1. It will play the original PS1 games,

2. PS2 games backward compatibility goes out the window.

3. It comes with a Wi-Fi connection so you can surf the Net on the TV, as long as there is a wireless router nearby.

4. If you own a PSP(1000,2000,3000), you can remote play the PS1 games, watch videos and listen to music through the PS3.

5. You can also back up videos and music on the PS3's hard drive. That way, if you want to free up some space on your portable flash drive, you can do so.

PS3 is a dust magnet. Its recommened to clean the vents with a low-powered vacuum from time to time, but any vacuum with a hose attatchemnt or dust buster will do. If its a powerful vacuum, keep the nozzle an inch or two away from the vent when cleaning.

Its best to give the PS3 vents as much open space as possible since it heavily relies on surrounding air and space to stay cool. 10 cm is the absolute minimum. Avoid confined space if possible.

An online connection is almost essential. Sure, system updates can be saved to portable storage, but GAME UPDATES cannot. Game updates can only be downloaded through the PS3 via online connection. Some games might not run right without updates and can prevent you from fully enjoying the game. Its not like you necessarily need your own internet connection. Since the PS3 has built-in WiFi, you could use a surrounding wireless network that doesn't have any security.

You dont have to worry about alot.

The failure rate of the PS3 is about 0.2%

You dont have to have your PS3 online to play offline games - but from time to time, the PS3 will need updating. You can do this offline too.

Find out more here;

http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/Sy…

Also, the charger cable you get with the PS3 is quite short - You should think about getting a Mini-B USB Cable.

good luck!

Well, the recharging cable for the controller is pretty short. It's best just to go to radio shack or something and buy a cheap extension or longer cable. That way if the battery dies in the middle of a game, you don't have to sit 4' from the TV.

A blueray remote is optional but worth the price. You can get them cheap online.

You need internet connection bro..

just make sure there are no obstructions in front of any of its vents. And keep it in a place where it gets lots of air.

Nope, PS3 seems pretty clean of problems unlike the Xbox 360 :P

ps3 sucks get a ps1

How can I repair/replace my Rock Band 2 wireless dongles?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

My wireless dongles for the guitar and drums literally fizzled out when i plugged them into my powered usb hub which apparently had the wrong voltage. Is there any way I can replace or repair them? I'm from the Philippines so you can pretty much count amazon, ebay and other sites.

Thanks.

unfortunately you can't replace them

they seem to be coded individually to prevent interference between multiple guitars and drum controllers so are linked to your instruments

this gets asked a lot and I've tried to find a solution , no luck yet

call support at the gamesite , maybe they can get a serial number from the controller and match up a sensor unit

advice to everyone - ps3 controllers use a different voltage so can only be charged and plugged through your console or official sony wall charger unit - accessories such as headsets and keyboards use standard usb voltage

How does the Playstation 3 do a "system update" without being connected to?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

the internet? Is it though the the game you put in? Right now I am "updating" my PS 3 with version 2.6 (or something) without it being connected to the internet. It prompted me to update when I put in a new game (Fight Night Round 4), which leads me to believe that this is where it is getting its update from.

Sometimes it can be through certain games--especially if those games got released after a major firmware update and your system has not been updated in a while. In those cases, the game will act as the agent to updating your system. Of course, the disadvantage with using the game method is that you could possibly still be behind in firmware updates compared to what is currently available over the network. For example, Fight Night's update is (if it is 2.6, like you mentioned) is outdated to what firmware is out as of now, which is 2.80.

Another way you can update your system's firmware is if you use a computer and usb thumb/flash drive to install the firmware from the playstation website. Then when you go onto your ps3 you can go to the 'Settings' menu on the XMB and go to 'System update'. Once select that option it will ask you to select your update method--you can either choose the internet or a 'storage media' (meaning something like a usb thumb/flash drive). Usually those that don't have a stable (or no) ps3 internet connection will use the usb method.

You are correct. Certain games require a certain version of the system or higher and if your system isnt the version that meets the games requirements, the cd will update your Ps3 with a patch that it carries.

I hope that helps clear thing up

I know all this because i have a few games that required updating.

Here go to this website; you'll need the things listed to download the update to a USB drive, and the on to your ps3. ( It's the official Platstation website):

http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/Sy…

or go to this website to learn more about updating your ps3 in general:

http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/Sy…

you are exactly right, I think all games have the most up to date update available at the time of release

as you load the disc it'll use that to update your system, if you didn't already have that update. That way they make sure you have all the drivers necessary to play.

just like PSP some ( if not all games ) have the latest system update at the time that game was released

No. It uses the internet connection to update itself, not through the game.

It can access the internet without your permission, even when its turned off

If Sony adds the sterioscopic 3D gameplay to the PS3 Slim that will be announced on August 18 for $299?

2009-08-14T22:31:00.001-07:00

May be...

oh btw its 120gb and the sterioscopic 3d is up for grabs i just was wondering if it would want u to buy it more

I think its hilarious that people actually think Sony will sell a PS3 for $299 this early in its production cycle. Microsoft would never allow the PS3 to be the same price as its top 360 model, so either Microsoft is lying about its price drop to $299, or the Slim PS3 will be more than $299 when released. The rumors are actually saying the Slim will be $400 and this makes sense since the also cheaper-to-make PSP Go has a premium $250 pricetag. Sony is not struggling to sell PS3s at $399 and the hype will be enough to get the Slim off of shelves.

Anyway, no, it would make me want to buy it more. I would buy a Fatboy PS3 first regardless what the Slim has.

EDIT: Are you serious???? I think you are the noob my friend. Since when did the UK start using US Dollars? Everything I see about the Slim and 299 refers to 299 EUROS!!! Converting that translates to OVER $400 USD!!! With current rates, it actually comes out to about $425 USD. Looks like you just proved my point.

However, Sony is the one making the Slim and setting the price, so only their word is valid, not yours and mine. Yes, we should wait for Sony to say it themselves instead of arguing over speculation.

Ok 1. Please disreguard sickcallaway's comment as he is a noob and doesn't know anything as it was just confirmed that PS3s are now $299 in the U.K. Plus as you can see that's an official box art, there's videos of it being showed to ppl in china, french retailer have confirmed it, what more else do you need? Sony to say ok here's the bew ps3? Look at the history: PS-PSone, PS2-PS2 Slim, PSP-PSP Slim and Lite. Even if its not announced at GamesCom, most definatly it will at the Tokyo Game Show which is earlier this year. And yes microsoft confirmed that they droped the pro and lowered the elite price, why? Because microsoft is a "Me Too" corparation. Anyways I'm in the process of saving for a ps3 so after seeing the specs of the slim, I'll decide wether I want it or the original. As for stereoscopic 3D, sony doesn't need to announce it as its been confirmed already for the Avatar game(james cameron not Aang). Btw the slim looks sexy.(Not the silver crap)

it not bad price yeah why not. finally sony!!! good things happen to you

HECK YES!

Hi

I just wanna know if the ps3 come with psn card....

and is playstation network card required for playing online on the ps3??

A PSN card doesn't come with a PS3. You have to buy it separate and they come in $20 & $50 versions. It isn't required for playing online as online is free. It is only to buy things of the PS Store if you don't wanna use a credit card.

this helps me too.

nope it doesnt come with one. they are like 20 bucks or 50 and they are only used to buy games moves and show off of the psn. you dont need one to go online with the ps3. you just need a internet connection. (wired or wireless)

ps3 online is free you dont need to buy anything for online

Do You Think Microsoft Is The Biggest "Me Too" Corporation Ever?

2009-08-13T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

They copy everything Sony does now, they throw money at exclusives and cant come up with any good ideas like Halo. even though halo is practically dead now, execpt for a few fanboys.

Of course they are! I can't belive I actually wanted a Wackbox. Thank god my friend pointed me down the right path to Sony(though I had a ps2 already). But yea microsoft just tries to wait and see what sony or nin does and tries to make a better version. For example Natel is getting way to much hype and credit where in the end it might just be like "ok I'm playing my game with no controller....." Its going to be dumb, stupid, retarded all together ppl will eventually get tired of moving around just to get their player to walk a couple steps and what not. Yea I'm gonna waste time actually punching my own fist to make this guy punch too when I can just press a simple macro button......as for games omg that was declared when they begged for GTA 4. From that day you should have seen them planning on taking sony exclusives. Now they want FFXIII.....ok they got it but their copy will be on 3-4 discs LMAO!!!!! When sonys blu ray format requires just 1 not to mention 360 user might have to purchase the additional discs XD. Anyways yea microsoft needs to stop stealing and focus on their own work. How would they react to hearing sony has rights to Halo,Fable and other exclusives? They'd cry. O and btw sony most likely will reveal the Slim at a cost of $300 which was rumored for a while now.....BREAKING NEWS: microsoft drops pro kit and lowers elite to $299............omg we didn't see this coming......

Well what Microsoft does is pay companys like Bethesda a *** load of money so they can get the DLC for Fallout 3 first, when there money finaly runs out the DLC comes to the PS3. Sony knows they're getting the DLc so they don't waste there mney and get it 1 to 3 months later.

I hate to break this to you, but "throwing money at exclusives" is hardly something Sony invented. It's how business is done in the console world. It's how Sony dominated the console market with the PS1 and PS2. It's also how Sony LOST that domination by FAILING to do this for the PS3. As a result, Microsoft saw an opportunity and swooped in. Again, you can't slam Microsoft for this - Sony did the exact same thing to Nintendo by wooing Square back in the PS1 days.

If anything, you should be slamming Sony for "me too'ing" Sega and Nintendo by coming out with its own game console, throwing money at companies for exclusives, and even having online play for a console (Dreamcast was the first to offer any sort of modern online support.)

As for Sony's in-house developers vs. Microsoft's, OK, maybe. Microsoft is hardly known for their game development even for the PC. Besides which, they didn't do Halo either. They bought Bungie who used to be, of all things, a game developer for the Macintosh, and made them make Halo a PC, then Xbox, exclusive.

As for not coming up with anything good, what about Live and Achievements? Microsoft had Live up and running from day one of the original Xbox. Yeah, Sony had talked big plans for the PS2 online - including built-in AOL support, built-in Netscape browser with Flash support, email, and more. But none of these ever materialized. In fact, Sony didn't even release the hard drive and ethernet interface for the PS2 until AFTER Microsoft released the Xbox! Suddenly online multiplayer was a very desirable - and profitable - feature for console games, and Sony wanted in. Badly! Even then, Sony started out behind. The online support for the PS2 was embarrassing compared to the online community that Microsoft provided, and this was one of the big elements industry experts hoped Sony would improve when the PS3 arrived.

Well, when the time came for the current generation of consoles to arrive, what did we? A new and improved Live, which launched with the 360, and just about every launch game had online support, as well as the ability to download new items via Live's Marketplace. Meanwhile, Sony didn't even start talking to developers about online play until it was too late for most developers to include it in their launch titles. Big mistake. And again, Sony is playing catch-up against a vastly superior online system in terms of performance and features. Yes, online play costs $50/year with the 360, but honestly, if you're playing online a lot, having a fast and stable network is going to be worth the money. On the other hand, when Sony put Home online, it pretty much destroyed any stability their already over-subscribed network might have had. Come on Sony, network planning isn't new, or difficult...

Then there's achievements. Sony dismissed them at first, but just barely a year after the PS3 was launched, what happens? Sony starts talking about Home, and these things called "Trophies" which for all intents and purposes are just achievements, renamed. And even then it's taken Sony over a year to get game developers to even include trophies in their games! That's just pathetic if you ask me. What's the point of having a feature like this if it's not available in all new games going forward?

Finally let's not forget Sony slamming Microsoft for not being able to provide full backwards compatibility with their previous generation of games. Yet today, every 360 with a hard drive can still play original Xbox games, while Sony downgraded the feature one year after release, and then dropped it altogether a year after that. Today, no PS3 sold in stores today can play ANY PS2 games. At All. Which is weird because even one of Sony's own game studios, Naughty Dog, will be releasing their next Jak & Daxter game on...the PS2.

Microsoft just wishes to show off and try to hurt the PS3 owners.

I mean, keeping DLC TIMED-exclusives? I mean, they eventually come to the PS3 too. Microsoft are pricks, end of.

They're proud of getting MGS:Raiden even though it's not the official storyline and Hideo isn't even working on it.

So yeah, MS sucks. Sony may not provide us the best service but they're not fags.

yup they try to do many things like PLAYSTATION 3 like wireless controllers lithium batteries i mean come on because PLAYSTATION tried to do something like the Wii like adding motion sensing now the xbox decides to copy them but just make a little bit different let's face it xbox is wants to be a PLAYSTATION 3

Yeah, pretty much.

yeah Ash A and american... is right microsoft is too dumb too know what to do next

The PS3 sucks. It looks like a fax machine.

The console makers don't make the majority of the games. The only company that does that is Nintendo and if you notice they won't drop their mimis like Mario and Zelda which has contributed to their lack of sales before the Wii.

Game Designing companies make the games like Square Enix, Konami, Namco, and Bethesta. Why would they keep their game to ONE console and limit their earning potiential. If Microsoft does throw money at exclusives its only because those companies want money thrown at them.

Are there settings in the setup menus for the PS3 and 360 to compensate for HDTV lag?

2009-08-13T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

I was having a general conversation with a friend. I was confident that both Microsoft and Sony would include such a seemingly simple solution for their gamers, but I cannot find a source online and am not at home to check the PS3 menu.

No. Your TV is supposed to have such settings, not the consoles themselves.

as you know none of the 360 consoles have wifi.

now i know what most of you will think, well why should i pay extra and stuff like that, i do like that sony gives you most of the basic stuff built in. however i think sony could drop the console by 100$, just by the wifi. simply createa wifi adapter for say idk, about the same as the 360?

less cost more consoles sold.

just an idea dont flame im already a Tr4y Member.

anyways.

yea thats true i have like 5 ethernet cables so i wouldn't mind buying a ps3 without wifi

Ummm no sony shouldn't do that because they made the PS3 Slim which will have all the same features just in a smaller version at it will only cost $299 anyways because they found a way to produce it at a lower cost as said a ps3 now cost $250 to make.

to me thats quite a downfall, the wifi is one of the best attributes (in my opinion) i have one at my house but it isn't exactly mine so ima wait for the price to drop.

Same here

Got a New PS3 > What Games Should I buy and Why?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.011-07:00

May be...

I'm a 20-something who has just sold his Wii and bought a PS3.

What games are recommended and why?

Quite like action, fighting, FPS and driving games.

Well, it depends on how many games you can get I suppose, so here's five...

Infamous is very good. You have an entire city to explore, and you can play as either good or evil. In-game characters react to you depending on how you play. If you're good, they'll cheer and take photographs and help you beat up the bad guys. If you're bad, they'll boo and throw rocks. No online, but very enjoyable.

Killzone 2 is also very good. Excellent single player and online. Graphics are great, well worth the money.

MGS4 is a must, even if you haven't played the others. Fantastic storyline and gameplay. You can spend so much time on this game.

For anybody, COD4 is essential. Just flawless. Brilliant single player, excellent online gaming, completely addictive. I've spent 8 days in total on this game online, which is nothing compared to the better players.

And finally, Oblivion: The Elder Scrolls. A few years old, not graphically brilliant, but one of the best games ever. Ever. You can (and I have) spend days of gameplay on this while not doing anything on the main storyline. There are so many options and side missions, characters to meet, items to obtain, guilds to join and lead, everything. Probably my favourite game.

Hope this helped.

Action game- Uncharted 1, Infamous, MGS4.

Fighting- Um... I don't play this genre so can't comment.

FPS: Resistance 1/2, Killzone 2, COD4.

Driving games- GT5:P, Motostorm 1/2, Burnout.

Personal recommendations:

1)Killzone 2.. Every FPS fan should have this game. Best graphics till date with gripping action.... Production quality are through the roof. One of the best FPS this gen. Difficult to master at first due to tight controls, but after an hour of adapting, you will LOVE this MASTERPIECE.

2)Infamous- Great open world game. Really fun. You are a superhero (electricity) in an open world game... Great story and awesome climbing mechanics..... Better than GTA4 I might add.

3)Uncharted: An action movie.... Phenomenal graphics with great gameplay. UC2 is going to be released this year and it's already regarded as GOTY... Will overtake KZ2 in best graphics category.

4)MGS4: THE BEST PS3 GAME TILL DATE PERIOD.... NUFF SAID.

Infamous ~ an action game where you can play as evil and as a hero

Metal Gear Solid 4 ~ a must play for a PS3 owner! one of the best action games and it really answers the questions of the other MGS games Superbly

Prototype sort of a Wolverine meets the Darkness a little repetitive but a GREAT game

Street Fighter 4 Best new Gen fighting game

Resistance 2 sequel to resistance FOM

Resistance Fall of Man What if WW2 was started by an an alien invasion?

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue I just love it! Don't ask why.. and if the prologue is this good just think how great the full 5 will be in Feb 2010

those are just a few of the PS3 games I have that I totally love

i have a ps3 and my favorite three are

1)heavenly sword

2)need 4 speed

3)winning 11

number 1 is a very cool fighting game

number 2 is a racing car game

number 3 is a soccer game

all of them r sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…

cool

lol

uncharted- one of the best games on ps3

burnout paradise city- great driving game really fun

killzone 2- graphics are amazing and one of ps3 best fps

Infamous if you like action with a little bit of rpg got real good scores Little big Planet if you like creating stuff again highly Praised Killzone 2 if you like to kill people and shooters pretty good scores

Get anything you want BUT NEVER FORGET TO GET -

Call Of Duty : Modern Warfare 2

&

Uncharted 2 : Among The Thieves

O_O

Get Call of duty Modern Warfare 2 when it comes out.

Playstation 3 or xbox360?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

im thinking of getting playstation or xbox360 people say there both good but which is really cool?

ps3, online is free! plus the games are great too! plus its a blue ray player. Plus you dont have to buy a wireless adapter! the sony processor is better, and the graphics card is slightly faster!

as you can see, im for ps3 partially because i have one, but both consoles are very close. its all a matter of preferences, example, coke or pepsi.. pretty much the same, but some people choose one over the other.

most people will say that ps3 is for performance, while xbox is for gaming.. i can agree with that. but that doesnt mean there isnt gaming for the ps3!

if you get a ps3, add me, drbob25

Im a major ps3 fanboy. I also own a 360 and i have to say the ps3 is clearly better. The only reason 360 got more sales its because its $200 but accaully your getting riped off. on the ps3 your getting a 300 dollar blue ray player. on the 360 you got to buy an hd player which is $100 dollars. ps3 has BUILT IN WI-FI 360 dosn't so have to pay about $84 for an adapter. Unless you a 24 foot wire from your computer to your 360. on 360 controllers you have to put batteries on ps3 you dont they give you a usb charger which you hook it your ps3.Your saving about 6-10 dollars a month. also you get 80 gigabytes on your ps3 and the $200 version 360 have very low meamory unit. on your ps3 you'll get 80 gigs for massive downloads,pictures,gamedata,music,anythi…

oh yea also you get to play online games for free on your ps3 just make an account. on 360 you have to pay about 15 dollars every 3 months or 60-80 dollars a year.

yea 360 is cheap but really your paying so much money.

ps3 is just $399.99 but look what your getting $300 blu ray player,built in wi-fi,80 gigs,no batteries,playstation network,you can browse the internet,

the death rate of a 360 is about 36-56% percent of getting the three ring of death rate. the microsoft company repairs that but imagine sending it about 2,3times a year.

ps3 has a 0 .2-1.6 death rate.

ps3 has a higher chip for graphics they might look similar but there not. ps3 has a 50 gigabyte blue ray disk for higher graphics and 360 has the standard 12 gig dvd rom cd.

thats why when they made gta 4 they couldnt put as much things as they wanted to because 360 had only 12 gigs to work with yea ps3 has 50 gigs. but it wouldn't be fair for 360.

and the ps3 is a killing machine

go get it..

umm YOU CAN DOWNLOAD MUCHHH CONTENT FROM THE PS STORE. INCLUDING RENTING MOVIES.THERES GOING TO BE AN UPDATE CALLED VIDZONE WHERE YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ANY MUSIC VIDEO FOR FREE ON TO YOUR PS3. 360 IS DYING THE NEW GENERATION XBOX WILL COME LATE 2011.

Before I start explaining on which system you should get, I want to let you know that I have both systems. Its better to talk to a person who had experience with both systems… Here is my proof that I have both systems- http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w140/…

Here we go, based on my experience, I recommend you the PS3

Why? Well here’s why…

- Sony had 2 successful consoles that sold over 200 million combined, so they have the best experience with gaming consoles

- To these people who say that Xbox 360 has better games, that’s no longer true… Since 2007 PS3 had AAA titles that were released. Heavenly Sword, Ratchet and Clank: FTOD, Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone 2, MLB 09 The Show, Motorstorm Pacific Rift, LittleBigPlanet, Infamous, etc. along with other AAA that are coming out this year- Gran Turismo 5, MAG, Uncharted 2, Ratchet and Clank: ACIT, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, etc. Almost every PS3 exclusives are a graphical powerhouse, unlike Xbox 360's exclusives. You cannot go wrong with games that has amazing graphics along with amazing gameplay... It has been proven from time to time that PS3 has higher rated exclusives.

- Xbox 360 was released in 2005, and its potential has been maxed out in 2006, 3 years later from launch, with Gears of War and Gears of War 2. Both games look very identical which shows how obsolete the 360's hardware is (http://i27.tinypic.com/vgiepu.png) no games will look better than this game. This picture shows how maxed out xbox 360- - note: Gears 1 came out in 2006 and Gears 2 came out in November 2008 and yet both games look virtually identical.

- PS3 was released in 2006, and its potential is nowhere near its full potential. Look at Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2, both looks so much more realistic than Xbox 360's best looking game, Gears of War 2. It will only get better for PS3's graphics but the future isn't so bright for Xbox 360's graphics... Just letting you know, I suggest you to google these games to see the difference.

- PS3 supports FULL 1080p resolution. Xbox 360 can’t display 1080p but it can upscale to 1080p but you can see a big difference between true 1080p(PS3) and upscaled 1080p(xbox 360) Also another thing, PS3 supports HDMI 1.3 which has richer colors and better quality while xbox 360 supports HDMI 1.2 which is outdated HDMI…

- With PS3, you are not getting just a gaming console, you are also getting a Blu-Ray drive. Blu-ray is the next-gen DVD. Xbox had a HD-DVD drive add-on for $200 but now HD-DVD is dead because people chose Blu-Ray as their Hi-Def format.

- PS3 games are produced on Blu-ray Disc. There are different capacities for Blu-ray- 25gb and 50gb. However they are coming out with 100gb discs and it will be fully compatible with PS3’s Blu-Ray drive. With the huge storage, developers can add more content, better graphics, and make a longer game. Xbox 360 uses DVD-9 which only holds 9gb. Developers are starting to complain that DVD is not big enough for games.

- Both systems offer online game however you have to pay $50 to subscribe for Xbox Live while Playstation Network offers the same exact features for free. XBL uses P2P so if someone has a bad connection, then the whole game will be laggy. Basically you are paying $50 for your own bandwidth. PSN has dedicated servers so if one has a bad connection, it will not affect the game at all. PSN also has a virtual social community with Playstation Home. Again PSN is free.

- Xbox 360 has a reported 33% chance of breaking down… PS3 reported to have .01% chance of breaking down. This might have an impact on your decision…

- Lastly, Xbox 360 costs more money in the long run with Xbox Live yearly subscription, Wi-Fi adapter(comes built-in with PS3), controller charger(comes built-in with PS3 controller), upgrading harddrive costs almost twice as much on Xbox 360 compared to PS3. This is why you hear people saying PS3 is an investment while Xbox 360 is for the short term...

This should be enough for you to read... Remember, this is your choice so choose wisely

The xbox 360 is crappy, old, and has no good games. People say that the ps3 has no good games, and that's the most obvious lie ever. All the 360 has is Halo and Gears 2 . And most of it's best games are on PC, too. (Mass Effect, Left 4 Dead, Section 8, Splinter Cell, and even Gears of War)

360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360 360

Hands DOWN 360 the ONLY good thing about PS3 is bluray and that will be short lived. 360 has on demand everything now. no disks needed for movies (HD and non) or games. Xbox Live (online) out classes PS online network so bad it makes me weep for sony. downloadable content exclusive games and sheer content make it NO CONTEST. Graphics are the only other advantage for PS3 but it is not a big enough difference to matter. Besides whats the point of great graphics if the games are not entertaining? Xbox 360 just has way more to offer and at a better price. The only downside to xbox is paying for live service but if you buy a year subscription at walmart its about 40 bucks 40/12=3.33 plus one month free so really 40/13=3.07. You will not regret that and you will see were the money is going. Again NO CONTEST

most people say Xbox360 because it's cheaper. But if money does not matter to you, go extreme.. get the PS3.

to the guy who said blu-ray is going to be short lived... think about this.. Xbox's HD-DVD is dead because it can't come close to Blu-Ray tech.. Blu-ray is just still in incubation stage.. more powerful stuff will come it's way.

PS3, i didn't even consider 360.

1. Blu Ray (i am a huge movie freak)

2. Metal Gear Solid

3. Final Fantasy (at the time, it was an exlusive)

4. Doesn't break

5. Free online with internet browser.

360 had more errors buy ps3

get ps3 because of bluray and free internet and most futureproofness

My opinion is the Xbox360

What is the name of this game for the PS3 ?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.007-07:00

May be...

A few years ago right about the time the PS3 came out I saw a trailer for a game and I cant remember what it is. Im pretty sure the game got canceled becuase I saw this trailer and then it just disappeared after that and I havent heard anything about it since.

The trailer opened with a guy standing in DC around dusk and it was he doing a monologue narrative talking about saving the world or something and the camera kinda circled around him and you could see the landscape and all the monument. Eventually you saw he was holding a gun and and then you saw all the black ops secret service kinda guys closing in on him and then it ended.

What was that called if any one saw it?

Resistance Fall of Man?

The game ends with the main character walking through the snow after an explosion and then these black ops people come from a plane and take him in.

But it doesn't take place in modern times

splinter cell

Could be the new splinter cell i do not know the full name of it.

it could be splinter cell conviction

Why did my psn account get suspended and for how long?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

All I did was went to home and cussed words such as SHlT. It's not my fault my words don't censor.

How long is this gonna take

I guess you don't realize that Playstation Home is heavily moderated by Sony and Sony has a very low tolerance of people using language like that on Home.

Offenses like this usually get you banned for a week, but you can call or email Sony and give them your PSN ID. They will give you all the details of your suspension, including length and why.

And again, Home is heavily moderated, so it would be wise to not do stupid things when you use it (like curse).

Wow your an idiot

It's totally your fault for saying it

It's gunna take a week

based on what you said they would go as far as banning you off the Playstation network call them and tell them how long you will be banned they should know the details

Whatever you just mentioned was the cause of getting your account suspended. I don't know how long you will be banned.

Playstation 3 don't work when i plug it in my car?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.003-07:00

May be...

I have a Playstation 3 (80 Go) model CECHK01.

In my car, i have a TV and i bought a digital power inverter 200 W.

I can plug my nin 64 and it works perfectly but when i plug my playstation, it dosen't work...

If my digital power inverter is not able to feed my PS3, what should i buy?

Well, the PS3 needs at least a 400 watt power supply continuous (remember not peak), but even so it wouldn't be a good idea because it will get pretty hot in the car.

it could be because the ps3 needs a lot more power than the n64

i dont think it would be a good idea to keep a ps3 in a car

Why to get modern warfare 2 ?

2009-08-12T22:31:00.001-07:00

May be...

i was never a fan of call of duty and play cod4 very rare on my friend ps3

and modern warfare has only 16 players online

i think M.A.G can blow this game away with 256 players online

i don't hate cod or something but what good about it

i am fan of killzone 2 to death

Well Call of Duty is one of my favorite war games, and FPS. The thing is MAG looks like its going to be like a 9.0 or 9.5 out of 10, so i thinks it's going to be great. And Modern Warfare 2 looks like its goin to be like 9.8 or even a 10. But heres the thing MAG may not even have a campiagn.

MAG is being advertised as a online game. And it looks really awsome with 256 people online. But the graphics, the frame rate won't be able to compare with MW2. MW2 is running with 60 Frames, and MAG is running with 30 or 40 frames. So MW2 will play faster and have better graphics. Who knows what will be better. I personally think i will enjoy MW2 better. I think i'm going to like the feel of it better.

So if i had to pick one, it would be MW2. But right now, MAG is definitly on my list as well.

chris r u stupid PSN is run off private servers so that there is virtually NO LAG no matter what

Well, Call of duty is really fun for me, I got Killzone 2 also. The movement is a lot more free than Killzone 2. There's a perk system and when you level up, you get more guns like in KZ2. From my opinion, just give it a shot, you won't be disappointed.

Hey, want to add me on PSN? I'm looking for some more friends for MAG. PSN - ASLplease. Tell me it's you when you add me.

I was exactly like you.

I rented Cod4 to see what the fuss is about. I liked it, but not that much. It is way overrated.

Modern Warfare 2 looks to be an improvement, but I will probably just rent it, too and finish the story and play some multiplayer. Because the online gets boring normally way too fast. And all the weapons are basically the same. (all long range 5-hit kill rifles)

Mag is crap. It's made by Zipper interactive, AKA the creators of the SOCOM series, which sucked mad nuts. And then again, what does the player count even matter? 256 people can only make it lag even more.

the question is, why would you not get modern warfare 2. but it sounds like you already made you mind up.

What some cheats for starwars battlefront 2 for ps2?

# Infinite hero or villain

Select Instant Action mode, choose your levels, then go to the options menu before you start. Select "Hero", then change the options to Best Player, Time Limit 1 second, and the time for hero to become available to "Always". You can start the game selecting the hero, and when you die you can pick them again immediately. Additionally, select Instant Action mode, choose your levels, but do not launch. Go to the options and choose the "Hero" selection. Change the options to the following: Best Player, 4 Points, and the time for the hero to become available to 4 seconds. Your hero or villain can still die and the meter runs out, but you only need to kill four people for four points to unlock the hero or villain again. Also, if you get the points when you are playing as the hero or villain, when you die while playing as the hero or villain they still count as the points -- you can pick to play as them immediately.

# All hero classes

Select Instant Action mode, then choose Mos Eisley as your level and Assault as the game type. When you begin the game you can pick between heroes and villains and fight as any of the "Hero" type character classes with no time limit.

# Playing as a Jedi hero/villain

It may be very easy to kill people as a hero, but there are some special moves and techniques other than the standard saber combos. You can do extremely deadly and long combinations of lightsaber strikes against enemies by Force Running/Sprinting into a group of them and pressing Attack while still sprinting. This releases a group of moves that are much deadlier against groups of opponents. This is useful when clearing hallways or passages. You can also do lightsaber combos while Force Jumping by pressing Attack in mid-air. This is useful for killing Jet Troopers as a Jedi or taking a out lightly armored vehicles or any vehicle low on heath that is higher up. You can use the "lightsaber lock" to block enemy fire coming directly at you. Make sure to face your enemies as best as possible to block their fire, and use the crosshair that appears temporarily in this mode to better aim your ranged attacks (Force, lightsaber throw). Instead of running around the map randomly trying to kill anyone you see, find a group of opponents, then activate lightsaber lock to block all their shots as you Force Run at them and then unleash a deadly combo while you are in their midst. Also, some heroes are better than others. Even though you have a limited choice for each map, try to choose a team that has a better hero or villain. Some Jedis are much faster and lethal in terms of close combat and lightsaber skill. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Maul, Luke, Pilot Luke, Ki-Adi Mundi, Ayala, Yoda, and Mace Windu are recommended if you like using a lightsaber and running around. Other heroes and villains are much slower with a lightsaber and are not as good at fast or close combat, but are slightly more powerful than the others and have a better understanding of the Force. These characters include Darth Vader (Force Choke), "The Emperor" Palpatine (Sith Lightning), and Count Dooku. Use a character that best fits your playing style.

How If Its Real Does A Slim PS3 Cost Less To Produce Then The Fat?

2009-08-11T22:31:00.009-07:00

May be...

i understand less material, but wouldnt it be harder to pack a blu-ray player and all that stuff in there? if not wouldnt it at least cost more to slim down the parts? or no?

thanks.

also who sees overheating problems coming? hm?

The slim when it happens will have smaller chips, so it will require less heat sinks and fans. If they make it now the chip would be 45nm. The slim would cost retail, while they put the fat ones on sale, same thing they did with the PS2.

New tech is always coming along in the industry, as soon as anything is designed and made, they automatically start working on making it smaller, and cheaper to produce.

The same will be true of the parts in the PS3. When the slim PS3 comes along, I hope I will be able to buy a spare fat one before they stop selling them, because the slim is not going to be as well made and reliable as the fat one, and it will def have overheating problems.

The slim version of consoles is just a gimmick, it's a cheaper, more poorly made product, wrapped up in a pretty package.*

I saw someone write an answer here that was pretty convincing, sony is doing not as good as they hope they are right now, they are trying to make the slim as cheap as humanly possible. Remember how much the slim ps2 failed beyond belief, lets get ready for it again.

i think the prices would be competeing against the wii 250 dollars then nintendo will lower the price about 30 dollars

How did PS2 Slim fail? It basically outsold 360 in April of this year.

Where can i buy a PS3 80GB with GTA IV and Call of Duty 5 World at war as cheap as possible?

Ok this is what i would like:

Playstation 3 80GB NEW

GTA IV NEW

Call of Duty 5 NEW

Has to be a UK Store and you can mix and match with other stores, such as argos or game or similar things like that... cheapest possible way of buying it gets 5 stars.

If it comes with other games for free then i dont mind...

Buy the PS3 at Game and then head over to gamestracker.com and you will find the cheapest games there.

amazon.co.uk have good deals

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/redirect.html…

PS3 80gh will probably cost about $350

Call of duty world at war will cost $60

Grand theft auto is on sale for $40

total cost should be about $450 maybe more, depending what a ps3 80gb cost

get a 60gb. 80 gbs are crap.

Does the PS3 ever break down?

2009-08-11T22:31:00.005-07:00

May be...

i mean like is there a big chance of it breaking down like the xbox 360? anything close to the RROD?

No, make sure it doesn't overheat (put it in a place so that there is air around it at least 10cm) and you'll be fine. 1% of PS3s overheat, 33% of Xbox 360 consoles.

A lot of the comments say it breaks easily. But just make sure it won't overheat and you're fine. Lots of people have the red ring of death and it passed on the news, never saw a news about a ps3 overheating.

And a PS3 doesn't get very hot. And I droped it from 1 meter on the ceramic tiles and it works as well as new. Now I put it on the floor so that it doesn't fall ;-).

*Proud PS3 owner since May 22nd, 2009.

Also, Uncharted Drake's fortune, Bioshock and Far Cry 2 are the best titles I,ve had to date on the PS3. Metal Gear Solid too. I forgot to mention it.

You're welcome. By the way, I think your user's picture is from the Austin movies released in the 70s.

Mine broke after 1 year of usage. You might want to get the extended warrenty. But its more durable than Xbox 360. You can drop it (off of the tv station), roll it around on the ground and it doesnt heat up as much as xbox. My ps3 survived a lot for 1 year. My friends xbox burned up in less than a month. You choose!

Of course it can break down; all hardware can fail at some point.

Maybe not as much as early 360s, but there are still certainly problems with the Blu-ray drive (usually, the blue laser fails so that it can't read PS3 games anymore), or the 'yellow light of death' failures.

Man Im glad I bought that stupid extra store warranty. With the PS2 I went through 5 total. 2 the first year. So this expensive piece of plastic I wasnt going to play, "well it seems you warranty has expired" bs with SONY. And boy, 2.5 years of owning a PS3, I am now on PS3# 3.

Call it bad luck.

But Im still on XBOX#1 and X360#1. WIth no problems

yes mine is broken right now,beacuse of the cheap blueray,after awhile if you play every day like me its just will stop reading disks nd you have to pay sony $150 and wait a month to fix it.

there is not a high risk of break down like with the 360 and the RROD

But it does break down

Everything can break down no matter how good it is so just don't worry about that

the YLOD: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hPz6IhES…

Not really, the only thing you gotta do is clean the ps3 every once and a while just to whipe the dust off.

Well, with the RRod there's about a 30% chance it will fail

With the ps3, it's a 2% chance.

yes anything could happen the hard drive could crash or soda might spill on it but if that happens you should be able to get a new one for free from sony..my friend did

ive never heard of anyone having problems with the ps3 breaking down like xbox does.

Yes,

yes
