  • What is the Smallest Hard Drive you can put in your PS3?

    May be...
  • I am asking this because I got a PS3 for free because it don't have a Hard Drive. I have a old IBM think pad 770 E with an old 8.1 STA GB HD and want to see if the PS3 Just needs an HD.



    I don't want to have to go out an buy a new Hard Drive if my PS3 is busted beyond my repair and I don't want to brake my PS3 more if the think pad HD is to small and all that the PS3 needs is an HD.
  • As long as its a 2.5" SATA it'll physically fit in the PS3. so it cant hurt to try, though 8GB may be on the small side, mainly when you satart palying gmaes that need installs, they can take up 6GB in size in some cases, so youll have to install the game, play it, then delete it before palying the next game, which could be a pain in the ***..



    hardrives are very chepa nowdays anyway, so i would suggest buying one. And if the PS3 doesnt work, you can put it in a hard drive enclosure and use it as a portable hardrive.
  • your ps3 most likely won't take that old hard drive.



    there's no limit on size, as long as its compatible, and most notebook harddrives today are compatible
  • that hard drive probably won't work on the ps3 even though it is compatible with most SATA hds.
  • No it won't work because Ps3 takes 2.5 SATA HDD not 8.1 HDD.



    Thanks
  • I have a ps2 slim and if i plug it in it is red then when i turn it on it is green for a second then turns red?

    May be...
  • What are some good ps3 games for my 12 year old brother. E, E10 or T would be good. Games can be already out or out at the holiday. I know Ratchet and Clank and Little Big planet. Any others?
  • Racing games are always good:

    -Burnout Paradise

    -Grand Turismo 5

    -MotorStorm: Pacific Rift

    -Pure

    -Need for Speed



    Guitar games(expensive):

    -Guitar Hero 3

    -Rock Band, Rock Bad 2



    Sports

    -FIFA Soccer 2009

    -NHL 09

    -NBA 2K8

    -Tiger Woods 09

    -NCAA Football 2009



    Rated T shooters:

    -Mirror's Edge

    -Tom Clancy's End War

    -Fracture

    -James Bond 007: Quantum of Solace

    -Blacksite: Area 51

    -Warhawk

    -OMG HOW CAN I FORGET UNCHARTED?



    Franchise:

    -Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm

    -Star Wars: The Force Unleashed



    Also any fighting game, they're usually rated T.
  • Uncharted Drake's Fortune is a pretty good T-rated game, the story is great, the game is action-packed, the music is awesome, and the graphics are great, what more could you want? The game itself is only about 10 hours long at most, but there's a ton of replay value from collecting trophies ( this game supports trophies)



    Warhawk is also a pretty good and cheap ( $29.99) T-rated game, though it's an online only ( no single-player). There's a lot of variety in the game and tons of ways to blow up your enemies, say you don't like flying in planes? No problem, hop in a tank or a jeep for a while, or go on foot if you like.
  • Any sports game. Grand Trismo 5: Prologue. The Tony Hawk games. My little brother is 13 and he loves Metal Gear Solid 4. It has alot of shooting and killing....so I don't know if you approve of this for him but I would recommend that for you or your little bro!
  • For the love of all that is good - DON'T GO TO GAMESTOP.



    If you want to buy used games try Ebay or Craigslist and you'll save a ton of money.



    Warhawk is also alot of fun with little gore (T).
  • There is Pure. ( really cool ATV racing game)

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

    Uncharted Drakes: Fortune.

    Grid.( another very good racing game.I have played it)


  • Warhawk

    Tom Clancy's end war (comes out october 17th i think)
  • WARHAWK AND STAR WARS FORCE UNLEASHEDIS ALL I COULD THINK OF AT THIS MOMENT
  • grand theft auto iv
  • go to gamestop.com they will have plenty of games out for your

    brother

  • i cant sign in to playstaion network it keeps saying:



    An error has occurred. You have been signed out of PLAYSTATION Network.

    (80710092)





    HEEEEEELP!
  • That happened to me a couple of minutes ago, and I fixed the position of the router and it worked all of a sudden. make sure every cable is plugged it correctly!
  • THIS HAPPENS TO ME ALL THE TIME BUT I FIXED IT GO TO THE NETWORK SETTINGS AND GO TO WHERE YOU CHOOSE YOUR CONNECTIONS(WIRELESS/WIRED) AND KEEP SCROLLING RIGHT UNTIL YOU CHOOSE YOUR SECURITY AND PRESS SCAN AND IT WILL GIVE YOUR PERFECT CONNECTION AND ALSO MAKE SURE YOUR ONLINE WIRE IS CONNECTED CORRECTLY BUT IF YOU HAVE WIRELESS PPOSITION YOUR ROUTER SO IT CAN CONNECT
  • Its happening to me too.





    Maybe the server is down??



    Or just try turning on and off your modem that usually does the trick.
  • I just bought a Playstation 3. I want to connect it to my computer so I can play online. When I tried to do ?

    May be...
  • this using the ethernet wire that came with PS3 I noticed that my modem only has one ethernet imput (for connecting to my computer). How can I connect, both my Playstation 3 and my computer to my modem (I have Cablevision's Optimum Triple Play) at the same time?
  • you need a router

    Playstation 2 slimeline console?

    May be...
  • I just bough a slimeline thinking it was better than the thick one. I keep hearing that the slimeline overheats. Is there a way i can prevent this? should i place a fan close to the console, would this help?
  • it's called a slim line, not slime line. and everyone who says that the slim overheats faster than the original fat PS2 had theirs overheat due to suffocation. ANY console will overheat if you don't allow air to circulate around it. I own a slim and it's just fine. I have plenty of space around it and it does not overheat. that's how you can avoid overheating your slim PS2.
  • No,the PS2 Slim is highly durable.

    I've left mine on for 9 hours straight and nothing happened to it.

    The fat one has fans in it,but it really makes no difference in buying the Slim or fat one.

  • How do i contact sony in the UK?

    May be...
  • My playstation 3 suddenly stopped working and i need to phone sony but cannot find the Telephone number anywhere
  • Well first off check the Ps3 FAQn Support to cehck possible soltions first, then ring them on number in li nk below.
  • lol.



    Look in the back page of any Instruction Manual for a PS3 game. It'll have the numbers for all SCE centres in Europe. Just choose the one that says United Kingdom (Its usually at the bottom).
  • www.uk.playstation.com if that doesn't work then www.playstation.com and click UK. Then, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, you should see contact us, click it. Then, find there number and phone them.
  • try this link it has a couple of numbers on hope it helps

  • easy, first go in this website: www.playstation.com

    then choose UK and go in the customer care cetegory :)
  • Why should I get a PS3?

    May be...
  • So I'm having a tough time deciding between a PS3 and Xbox 360. I've owned a 360 before, but I sold it off because I rarely touched it (never got the RRoD). But that was before when I didn't really have any good games and admittedly played a lot of crappy games to boost my gamerscore.



    Anyway, what are some great exclusives coming out to the PS3 soon? I'm a huge Final Fantasy (which is coming to the 360) and Gears of War fan, so I'm kinda leaning towards the 360 right now. The price is also $200 cheaper for the 360 right now.
  • The reason why you should get a PS3 is for the exclusives and the additional features that it has over the 360 like Blu-ray, Built in Wifi, and FREE Online.



    If you love Final Fantasy, yes you will be able to get FFXIII on the 360, but Final Fantasy Versus XIII is a Playstation 3 exclusive, so you wont be able to get that one if you just go with the 360.



    Final Fantasy XIII will be released on the PS3 first in Japan and it's being developed on the PS3 first...and more than likely, the PS3 version will be the superior version because FFXIII is being optimized for the PS3 to take full advantage of the system.



    PS3 exclusives coming out this year:



    SOCOM Confrontation (October)

    Motorstorm Pacific Rift (October)

    LittleBigPlanet (October)

    Resistance 2 ( November)

    White Knight Chronicles (December- coming out in Japan first)

    Tekken 6 (it might come out late this year or early next year)



    Some PS3 exclusives for Next year that I currently know of:



    Killzone 2 (February 2009)

    Infamous

    Heavy Rain ( Late 2009)

    Wardevil

    M.A.G.

    God of War 3 ( Late 2009)

    Final Fantasy Versus XIII


  • I have the xbox 360 and my best friend has a ps3 and i am wanting to get a ps3. For one reason is the blu ray dvd player, another advantage is having the wifi built into the ps3, which i have to spend an additional 100 bucks on the xbox just to play xbox love at my house. the blu ray dvd players will be at least 100 bucks.. so there's the two hundred bucks ur saving with the xbox. as far as the games go, there's not so many games that are only exclusive to one platform.
  • Resistance 2

    LittleBigPlanet

    Fallout 3

    Home

    Final Fantasy

    Tekken 6



    Those are the ones I'm looking forward to most, if you want all of them, go to IGN.com and go to upcoming titles for PS3.



    Also, there's really no good exclusives coming to 360 now, all they got is gears 2 but I'm not interested in that.
  • one of the main reasons i would get the PS3 over the Xbox if i had the choice is that the PS3 has a blue ray player. a new good blue ray player is around 400-500 dollars. i also really like sony. and i think that the games for the PS3 are better, the only game for the xbox that i would play would be halo
  • 360 has better exclusives, PS3 can play blu rays. That's about what it boils down to.



    I gotta tell ya though, I love the 360 just for the gamerscore. I feel now that when I play a game, I have something to show for it, even if it's just a number that doesn't mean anything.
  • If you are a huge fan of FF then you will defintly want a PS3, it was one of the exclusives on hte Ps3 that drew me ( as well as LBP, and the fact it had a blu-ray player and i didnt have ot pay £50 a year to play online)

    360 may get FFXII but dotn forget its a port, so it will be multiple discs, be using compression ,and it would jsut ruin the experience, and you cant get Versus XII either. if Gears is only other game thats drawing you back to 360 then grab it on PC, most 360 games end up on PC anyway.

    At its launch PS3 did have a cruddy librabry, but now developerss can use the Cell, and are realising Blu-Ray offers more space for games (Id games had to remove chunks of the game from Rage cos it won't fit on DVD for 360) the library is building, and if you look at the fact Ps1 n Ps2 have about 3000 games each you know over the coming years the library will be huge.

    Also Ps3 now has Trophies(similar to achivemnts) and a PS score (Simialr to GamerScore) and Home coming out sometiem this month, so PSN is building up to rival ( and possibly surpass) XBL too.

    Sure the Ps3 does cost quite a bit more, but you get your monies worth, as pointed out, by the time youve paid for XBl, or decide you wanto t start watching HD movies, upgrade the HDD, gotten the play n charge kit etc, youll have to shell out the $200(and more) that you saved on the Ps3.

    Sony have nearly 20 years(they worked wiht Nintendo before Ps1) in the video gmae industry compared ot Micrsofts 6, so Sony knwo what there doing and cna give a quailty games console and service to their customers. And right now if i was gonna buy a new 360 i'd be worried MS are gonna do the trick they did on the orignal XBox n complelty drop it after 4 year's, at least Sony will still support Ps3 for many years after Ps4 comes out, look at the Ps2 now.
  • What 2 games should I get in October?

    May be...
  • OK, LittleBigPlanet is a definite. But I'll have enough money for 2 more (this month), yet there are so many games out and so much to consider.



    Pro Evolution Soccer 2009

    Fallout 3

    BioShock

    Dead Space

    Far Cry 2



    Fallout 3 and BioShock are really screaming out at me but I'm hearing Far Cry 2 and Dead Space look very impressive



    I doubt there are any better games coming out in October but if you have one suggest please.
  • You are interested in some of the same games I'm getting in October.



    I pre-ordered Dead Space this weekend and I also have Fallout 3 on pre-order, so I would say go with Dead Space and Fallout 3 or Fallout 3 and Far Cry 2.



    And yeah, Dead Space looks like a really awesome Survival Horror game and I'm not even a fan of the survival horror genre, but I've been hooked on Dead Space.



    Far Cry 2 looks good as well. I read in a magazine article that Far Cry 2 will have around 40-50 hours of gameplay just in the Single Player portion of the game so there will be TONS of stuff to do in the game. Far Cry 2 is an open world FPS game and looks like tons of fun and I'm definantly picking it up too.



    I'm getting Far Cry 2 and Bioshock as well on the PS3, but I'm getting them in November or December though because I need to give my wallet a break from buying games in October first.
  • Well im geting LBP, Far Cry 2, then maybe Fallout 3/Fable 2 if i have spare cash, and depending on certian things, i.e if my mate is lending me his 360 or not. All are out on the smae day (well not Fallout 3) so itll be a very expensive day :P, but its to last me till xmas.



    and i agree on the sports games, i dont realyl get the point of them. They all seem the same year after year, if they actually add something instead of changing the numbers every year it might be alright.



    "Fifa '10, now with Manager view and the abilty to duel wield SMG's"
  • for sure Bioshock so get that one and Dead space aren't gonna be that good so then you have Far Cry 2 and Fallout 3 and since Fallout 3 is longer get that then go to Far Cry 2 next
  • Bioshock and Fallout 3
  • fifa 09, cod5 world at war

    or forget games, they take away the only social life you have, especially during college!
  • No question about it-



    BioShock and Dead Space.
  • nba live 09

    madden 09
  • bioshock....its really good and if u dont have halo3 get IT!!!!!....... : }
  • What type of HDMI cable do i need for my PS3?

    May be...
  • I have brought a new HDTV and was wondering if i need a certain type
  • no, just an hdmi. you dont need to buy an expensive one either
  • Your best bet for a good quality yet insanely cheap HDMI cable is monoprice.com. They have a number of different lengths. Check my source link for a 6 foot cable for less then $5.00! I use this exact cable for my PS3.



    There was a blog post on gizmodo.com a while back where they went to monster and had them test their high quality cable against monoprice cables. Mono preformed very well in the shorter cable lengths, they did have some signal loss at longer lengths.
  • All you need is two devices w/ HDMI ports. Any cable would work, just make its long enough to reach the TV or receiver. I agree, no need to spend a lot as this is a digital connection. You can find 'em cheap on amazon.com
  • Nope,

    you can buy a cheapo one, it all works the same.

    mynes from quality save 2 pounds and its fine!
  • Adding more RAM to my PS3?

    May be...
  • I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to add more RAM to the PS3....

    I recently found out the you could install and run Windows on PS3, which got me exited to all the new gaming possibilites that opened up.

    Then I realized there was only 256MB of RAM, and most good computer games require at least 512MB. Though a full GB is recommended.



    Anyway, like I said, I was wondering if there was any way to solve this problem. I'd really like to use my PS3 to play Windows games.
  • The PS3 is not designed to be upgraded in this manner.



    Nor can you install Windows on it - the processor is not compatible.



    There is a version of Linux that will run on the PS3, but that had to be custom compiled by Sony. Since only Microsoft has the source code for Windows, only Microsoft could create a version of Windows for the PS3.



    Yes, someone DID manage to install Windows running under an emulator running under Linux on the PS3...but it was so horribly slow, it wasn't usable for anything other than bragging rights.



    Seriously, if you want to play Windows games, why do you have a PS3 at all? Just plug your PC into your TV, get a wireless keyboard, mouse, and controller, and there you go.
  • No you can't install Windows (you can install Linux though) on a PS3, you can't install more RAM either, it's not technically possible.
  • dont believe so, the only thing I have heard of is upgrading its hard drive
  • isnt there a seperate card thet u can take off and hen replace with a 2GB one?

    A couple questions about Playstation and GH3...?

    May be...
  • Ok, so I just bought the PS2 Guitar Hero 3 bundle. I love the game and everything, but there are a couple things I am wondering about. I also purchased a 64 mg memory card for the ps2. Is that too big of a memory card? it works fine, but it is a little slow saving data. Or is GH3 just slow saving data anyway? And also, does GH3 only regonize 8 mb of space even if you have more? It seems like that for me.

    Thanks so much in advance. Sorry If I haven't explained this well enough. :)
  • Yeah you haven't explained it well enough.



    If you're asking if a 64mb memory card is alright to use for Ps2, the answer is yes. I used to have 64mb memory card when I have my Ps2 but I had now upgraded to Ps3. :D



    And yes, GH3 would recognise 8mb memory card as well.



    The 64mb memory cards are third party products therefore its not made by Sony. So there might be some minor issues going on such as saving a little bit too slow.



    Thank you
  • For the PLAYSTATION3, can you talk to other players like in the xBox360?

    May be...
  • Yes, but because the PS3 doesn't come with the mic like the 360, not everyone has one, so it is not as common to hear anyone talk.
  • Yes you can either text message, chat, or video talk using the Playstation Eye.



    You can also talk while playing games online.



    Hope I helped!



    Thank you
  • Yes, you need a headset though and they can run from $30- $150
  • Yes.
  • Question about Folding Home on the Playstation 3.?

    May be...
  • What is it? How does it work? I heard that if you sign up for it, then some University uses or PS3's processing power. Or do they use the processing power of computer? If I try it and don't want to use it anymore, do I remove it from the PS3 somehow?
  • Folding at Home uses the PS3's processing power only when you run the program. It doesn't do anything when you're playing games or anything else. If you don't want to use it anymore just don't turn it on. You can also run the program on a pc or mac.
  • Folding@Home is now called Life With Playstation. You still donate computing power to Stanford for medical research but it now has a 3-D globe that lets you move around it and see the weather and current news in certain areas. You can play music while it is running as well. Sony is just trying to make it more appealing to people so they will use it more.



    If you go into Folding@Home then you can update it and it will be now called Life With Playstation.
  • As mentioend its now Life With Palystion.



    Basically Stanford University useh te power of the PS3, the PS3 is way mroe powerful than a PC for this, to simualte 'folding protiens', basicallyl attmepting ot understand and cure things such as cancer, alzhiemrs and many other illness'. so puttinghte Ps3 ot good use.

    The Ps3 version is desinged so it only takes 8 hours ( ie overnight while your sleeping) to compelt one work unit, so it wont interfere with your normal gaming.

    If you dont want to use it, then just dont use Life WIth Playstation, pretty simple, it wont run unless you let it.

    However its ultimatly asking for abit bit of your electricity nad bandwidth to help cure some major illness in the human race,so its doing your bit, should give you a nice fuzzy feeling inside(and theres leaderboards if you jsut want to go into it for a bit of competion too)

    I'll add a few link's.
  • Ps3 Home (when will it come out)?

    May be...
  • Hey,i am a DIE HARD FAN of Sony and i own the 40gb ps3 but i have 1 question that has been KILLING me for over a Yr know...When WILL THE PS3 HOME COME OUT sony officially announced that ps3 home will be coming out last yr winter then they delayed it to last yr spring and know their saying its coming out in Late October... Can anyone tell me if what i heard was wrong or if ps3 home will be DELAYED AGAIN!
  • Well rumours(form the horses mouth) suggest October with Firmware 2.50.

    Also it is meant to be before LBP is relased (oct 21st) as Sony want LBP and Home to be BFF.

    so keep your ear to the ground over next few weeks.



    Either way it has been garunteed to be out before the end of the year.
  • I know how you feel. I've had my PS3 for over a year now and I'm also wondering when it will finally come out. It's a strong possibility that it will be delayed again because of it's history, but don't worry. I'm pretty sure It'll come out before 2009.





    Well let's hope so.
  • it has been announced that there is a 99.9% chance that home will be out by this year stated sony. so we can expect it sometime in 2008. hopefully soon. i did hear rumors in october but don't take my word for it, i just heard it somewhere
  • I think it'll come out shortly after the 2.5 update taking place in November.

    I can't think of where I saw that though. I'm pretty sure it http://www.ps3fanboy.com though.
  • i heard late 2008 or early 2009
  • it better be this yr
  • lolz i dont even know whats the HOME, so sorry
  • Didnt the xbox 360 copy?

    May be...
  • Home for the ps3 and the wii for the miis it has, with the new xbox 360 fall update
  • They didn't entirely copy it, but they made it similar.



    Microsoft can't create their own ideas.



    Edit: Sony didn't copy the motion controller, there was one already back in the 90's.
  • Guess who had motion sensors first? Nintendo, after they showed about the Wii, Sony STOLE the idea. Guess who had the built in HDD for saving first? Microsoft with the Xbox. Yes Sony had the add on HDD for the PS2, BUT it was only used with one game and never caught on basically. So that is called the Business World. If something is successful then everyone else copies it.
  • No. I don't think they copied Home entirely, but they definitely copied the XMB. It's their own "interpretation", and the "avatars" are blatant Mii knock-offs.

    Oh well. Microsoft knew that they'd need something like a community for their players to get together, even if Sony had the idea first, it was kind of inevitable.

    It won't matter though. It will probably be inferior to Home anyways.
  • Yeah it looks like they copy Home but it also looks like they copy mii's from the wii.But I guess that is how it works in Business.Sony seem to copy the wii's motin controller. While the wii seems to copy Sony angle sticks.
  • 360 are copycats they are also copying the motion sensing from the PS3 controllers and also the hard drive thing where some games require you to install the software you the game can load faster and even taking PS3 exclusives and adding them to the crapbox360 this system is an epic failure
  • lol.



    that's what I was thinking when I first saw the videos of it. They look exactly like the Miis and the whole avatars partying was stolen from Home. But Home is still going to be better, because the Xbox avatars look too cartoony and kiddie for me.
  • On the PS3, the game Warhawk, can it be played offline?

    May be...
  • I heard that it cannot be played with one player. I cannot play online, I want to play co-op with my wife, is it possible to do that without connecting the PS3 online?
  • No, its strictly an online multiplayer game. No single player campaign, no splitscreen multiplayer.
  • You can only play Warhawk via LAN or online servers. It is possible to set up a private, local room by going online and setting up a server, locking with a password and make sure the settings allow your guest player to switch sides instead of being stuck on your side. That way, yes, you can play 1v1 Warhawk. Fair warning, it's not much fun. There's no AI. You'll probably spend most of the time dogfighting and then one of you spawn-killing the other until they manage to get into another plane.



    And you need an internet connection to do it. It might be possible to do the same thing as a LAN server, but I'm not sure. I will check.



    One other thing, Warhawk is one of the games that prompts you to sign in before loading the game. So you must at least be logged in to PSN to play. So you've gotta have an internet connection.
  • As far as I know, it's online only.

    How can i play portable hard disk on my ps3?

    May be...
  • i have a western digital hard disk 160 gb but when i connect it to the ps3 via USB it won't recognize it what shall i do?
  • You need to format the hard drive first of all. If it is brand new, you need to hook it up with your computer and make it's format FAT32. If it is not FAT32 then the Ps3 will not recognize it. Then make 4 folders in the hard drive labeled Picture, Music, Game, and Video. For more detailed instructions and how to make the hard drive FAT32 go to:

  • What Playstation Portable game Should I get. ( PSP )?

    May be...
  • I'm Thinking LEGO: Batman What game do you think i should get
  • Well, if you are an older gamer I would suggest getting God of War: Chains of Olympus, but since Lego batman is an option I am guessing you are on the younger side... I would suggest getting Lego Batman but another good option would be Star Wars Force unleashed I heard that was a good game.
  • You must buy these games(unless if you already have them):



    God of War:Chains of Olympus

    Crisis Core :Final Fantasy

    Burnout Legends

    Need for Speed Underground Rivals

    Star Wars:The Force Unleashed

    Ace Combat X:Skies of Deception

    Call of Duty:Roads to Victory
  • I would suggest the games listed below:

    LEGO: Batman

    Tony Hawk's Project 8

    Tiger Wood's PGA Tour 08

    Dave Mirra BMX Challenge
  • yeah i would get that game I'm going to get that game for ps3 especially since you can be on the bad side
  • best games ever, any 4wheeling games, madden, ratchet and clank, not first person shooters theyre hard
  • Get the pandora battery and you can get any game you want without paying for it.
  • i think Sly Cooper is coming to PSP soon

    I'm so excited :)
  • get that it will be good
  • What game do you think is better?

    May be...
  • Resistance vs. Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare



    Explain why you think so?

    I'm looking for details.Both are very great games, I just want to know what you guys think.
  • I would have to say Resistance by a very slim margin. It has great online play plus multiplayer co-op. Call of Duty doesn't have a good single player but online play is fun.



    Can't wait until Resistance 2 comes out!
  • Personally, I like Resistance more. There's nothing wrong with COD4, but I stopped playing it all together as soon as MGS4 came out. I keep coming back to Resistance, even though I've had it since launch. I don't really know why, but it's just kept my attention longer.
  • resistance. i like a good story in my games, and COD4 doesn't really do that. also i think COD4 is way over rated. it's a good game don't get me wrong, but it doesn't have a good single player.
  • Resistance i mean call of duty is great a top 3 but resistance just takes it farther a more in depth campaign a good online and just great
  • Problems with ps3 predictive text dictionary - will give best answer.?

    May be...
  • For some reason, when I go to system settings > delete predictive text dictionary, and delete it, it actually doesn't delete it. I still have a bunch of useless phrases it's memorized popping up on the left when I go to do an internet search. Help, anyone?
  • go into the browser, press triangle to call up the menu. Go into tools and then Delete Search History.
  • It will only remove phrases youve added. it still has its own internal dictioanry, which bieng predictave can be a bit cruddy and random.

    biut its better than typing whole words out fully with the controller.
  • Yeah but if you want to put words permanenetly you can...
  • Can you play foreign dvds on a ps3?

    May be...
  • Like if I wanted to play a japanese DVD on an American PS3
  • No.

    It's region locked.
  • On a PS3, what's better, 40GB or 80GB?

    May be...
  • What is it for?



    I need a blu-ray player and I might play a few games, but not online. Do I need a big hard drive?
  • well if your talking about blue ray then it doesn't really matter but the hd is just to store save data,music,photos,and videos
  • The 40GB is discontinued, so there's no point in getting it.



    Just get an 80GB. It's a 40GB, but with twice the hard drive space. They are both the same price. Plus, it's bundled with a DualShock 3 controller instead of original SIXAXIS. The DS3 has rumble, but the original SIXAXIS doesn't.



    Some games require large install files (example: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which can take about 5GB). Also, you also can use up that space for your media (like music, pictures, and videos).
  • well the new 80 gig, is the same as the 40 gig, but it has more storage space. the older 80gig has backwards compatibility.



    the new 80gig is the same price as the 40gig was
  • i would get the 80 GB because Sony dropped the price for the 80 GB version and it costs the same as a 40, so go with 80
  • 80gb more memorry and it can play ps2 and ps1

    Why is my ps3 internet malfunctioning?

    May be...
  • every time i sign in to play call of duty 4, and i put "find a game" it says "downloading game settings" and it says that forever so if you can help me out that would be great. thx
  • If it keeps repeating that same process i suggest turning your modem off then on again or unplugging ethernet cord then replugging itt in. Leave it our or off forat leastt ten seconds then plug it back in. Then click the home button and sign back in then it should load straight away. If not work straight away keep repeating process. Is this a one off situation because it usually happens every couple of weeks due to changing servers.
  • When you choose a game mode and you're the only person in the lobby, it means you're hosting the match. If you don't want to host, just keep exiting and entering, until you've got it.



    NOTE: When you do host a match, you get the fastest and best connection out of everyone.
  • its your internet connection
  • Reset your router/modem and see if it still does.
  • PS3 controller. just bought one but no papers or cables?

    May be...
  • Just bought a white dualshock 3 controller off ebay but am concerned because it dd not include instructions/warranty papers or the recharge usb cable. when i got a xbox 360 controller it did include these things. have i got ripped off here?
  • No you didn't.

    When I bought a controller at Wal-Mart, it didn't come with a any of that stuff, not even a USB charge cable. You have to use the default cable that comes with your PS3, or buy one(like I did) The instructions should have come with your PS3, anyway, for the controller it comes with it. I don't think controllers come with a warranty.

    Sorry.
  • Ah, Your alright. PS3 controllers come in a package that includes the PS3 controller by its self. theres no instructions but all you have to do is use your USB cord that came with the playstation, charge it and it should work on your PS3. They made the USB cord a seperate assesory and if you want one, you have to get it form a store. They arnt that expensive but dont worry, thats how they have the controllers packaged for PS3s.
  • No, you did not get ripped off on eBay. There is no need for the instructions / warranty papers that come with the controller. And, PlayStation3 controllers do not come with USB charger cables. You can either use the default USB cable that came with the system, or purchase a new cable.
  • No, you didn't. You only need one USB charge cable for about 3 controllers. Use one whilst the others are charging. If you really need more than one charger, then you can buy a charge pack of ebay were you can place the controller(s) on top of the chargers and it will charge.
  • no, just buy a usb cable.
  • Youre opinion on upgrading my PS3 hard drive to 320GB (or more), and.... ?

    May be...
  • I have a MGS4 80GB, and I have around 60GB left.



    Thing is, games take up a LOT of space, and pretty soon I wil find myself struggling with space.



    However, I already have PS1-3 saves, music, photos... will upgrading mean that I will replace all that with blank space? In other words, will I lose all that data, or will it ADD 320GB?



    And secondly...



    Whats a good hard drive to upgrade to.



    Please and thank you!
  • If you get a new HDD you have to take the old one out. You don't replace the blank space or add more space. Before you replace the HDD you have to back it all up. That way all of your data can be transferred to the new HDD. What do you mean by the second thing? Like brand or size? A good brand is Western Digital and a good size is, well, whatever you think you'll want. I got a 120GB one. It has to be a 2.5 inch sata drive.
  • i don't know much about upgrading the hard drive. but as for your data you can buy any type of memory stick or sd card and then transfer it to your new hard drive.
  • well all you have to do is get a usb drive save ur data and the ps3 only takes 2.5 sata drives.
  • Whats the diffrence between the dualshock 3 controller and the six axis controller?

    May be...
  • I know six axis is wireless. does that mean that the dual shock 3 has a cord or what?



    is there a major diffrence?
  • The only difference is that the Sixaxis controller doesn't have rumble while the Dualshock 3 has rumble and Sixaxis.



    Sixaxis= sixaxis

    Dualshock 3= rumble and sixaxis



    Not all games support the rumble feature on the Dualshock 3 because the Dualshock 3 came out after some of the games were already made.
  • the dualshock has rumble feature and the 6-axis controllers are like Wii's motion sensor but dont have the rumble feature like the dualshock has;)

    both can either be wired or wireless depending on which the user prefers :D
  • SiXXAxis is motion sencored only.....but the DS3 has a new rumble feature used in newer ps3 games, and has the sixxaxis feature as well....so pretty much the difference is the sixxaxis doesnt support rumble....DS3 i hear is quite durable and weighs alittle more
  • six axis is the motion control aspect of the controller, dualshock 3 is the rumble feature, the dualshock 3 controller also has six axis.
  • No, The Only Difference is that DS3 has Vibration.



    So the DS3 has 6 axis built in, so its better.



    6-Axis has no vibration.
  • JUST THE RUMBLE AND THE WEIGHT MY FRIEND. THE DS3 IS A BIT HEAVIER.
  • How many wireless controllers work with one Wireless USB Receiver for PS3 on guitar hero?

    May be...
  • Only 1 guitar works with 1 wireless receiver. You will need a 2nd receiver to use a second guitar. If you buy an additional ps3 guitar, it should come with a USB wireless receiver.
  • Well u can only play with 2 players so only 2 will work on your ps3
  • What happens if your games fall over?

    May be...
  • I'm sure we've all had this happen to us. When you stack cases of games in a row, sometimes you may slip up when you're taking one out or something and the cases might fall over on each other like a stack of dominoes.



    If/when this happens, can the game discs inside the cases be physically damaged in any way?
  • Maybe if your game shelf is suspended 100ft in the air then it might be damaged.



    It doesn't do any damage because the game is secure inside the case. This happened to me a lot and it got really annoying. So I *borrowed* one of those things that holds up books in our school library and it hasn't happened to me since...
  • The discs are very snug in the cases. Plus the space between the disc and the case is so small it wouldn't have room to do much damage.
  • No, It is firmly in the case.
  • it shouldnt if the cd is placed correctly in case so it cant move freely
  • no
  • i don't think so! my brother does that kind of stuff all the time and it doesn't ruin the cds

    PS3 Not detecting stuff on USB Drive. ?

    May be...
  • When I insert my USB flash drive into the ps3, it detects it, but cannot detect anything that is in it, with messages like "There are no titles". I tried music in .mp3 format, pictures in .jpeg format, and movies in .mp4 format and I still my PS3 cannot detect what's inside my flash drive. Any help?
  • When you are in the music section, press triangle on the USB flash drive, when you press triangle, there should be something like " Go to playlist" - and from there you should now be able to play your music.



    Thank you
  • I have had this Problem when i tried attaching my w960i to the PS3 via a cable to the USB, and eventually it worked after i just waited for all of the titles and music to fully colaberate with the PS3 keep trying it as it should work eventually.



    Also you may have the USB Stick Locked via the lock data switch on the side???
  • I want a 60gb ps3 . Waiting for a reply?

    May be...
  • How much it costs and from where ican get it
  • Sorry, The 20GB, 40GB, 60GB, and The Old Version 80GB Playstation 3 are no longer in Production by Sony.The Only Place You Can get it now is on Ebay and Amazon, Which I do not recommend because these websites only sell Used Ones now.There are no longer Unused ones for sale.The Only Systems in Production now are the 80GB and 160GB Core Systems with no Backward Compatibility, no Memory and Flashcard readers, and only 2 USB Ports instead of 4.I recommend getting the new 80GB Core System which I have.It may not have any of the Things above but its still a Playstation 3.Happy Gaming!
  • The New 80(GB) Core System Costs $399. Report Abuse
  • 60gb are extinct from the store's shelf, you can only buy them on ebay or something like that. but i recommend you get the 80gb bundle with metal gear solid. it is almost the same as the 60gb its just the backward compatible. if you still want the 60gb it will probly cost 1600, around there. GOOD LUCK AND BEST OF WISHES CHEERS BYE
  • I have one haha but i wouldnt sell it its great it has all those ports and memory slots that the new ones dont have we paid almost $900.00 for it last year money well spent!!! good Luck finding one its going to be close to 2000.00 they are very rare!!!
  • Sony no longer distributes the 60 Gb model, so if you want one you will have to buy it from a trade store or a site like ebay. The price depends on who you buy it from.
  • New Playstation 3 (80)GB Core Model?

    May be...
  • Hi, I have the New Playstation 3 (80)GB Core Model, and I am very satisfied with it so far.The Only thing I am disappointed in is that Sony took away the Memory and Flashcard readers, Backward Compatibility and the 2 extra USB ports.The Price of this System is also good only $399 for a Gaming Console, a PSN Account, an Internet Browser, and last The Blu-ray disc player all for $399.If you have this Core PS3, please tell me if you are Satisfied with it or not and why.If you want it please say why.Thank You.Happy Gaming!
  • I have the 40gb Ps3 which is the same as 80gb core only the 80gb has bigger HDD.



    Yes I am very satisfied with it and I'm very happy with the purchase. :D



    I'm not very dissapointed at all that sony took away the Backwards Compatible feature because I have sold my Ps2 and Ps2 games to buy my HDTV lol.



    For the USB ports, I just bought a USB hub and now I got a total of 5 USB ports.



    For SD card readers etc., There is a USB hub + SD card reader made by Nyko for $20.



    Here is a link of it...



    http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/07/02/nyko...



    Although I don't really need a SD card reader anyway because I use a USB cable to transfer pictures and stuff from my Digital Camera. So yeah.



    And yes, I'm very happy that it plays Blu-ray. ( Its great in HD )



    You can add me on PSN if you want.



    My PSN name: micro_soft





    Happy gaming too!


  • We have the 60GB and we bought it when they first came out for $800.00 and it has been workin just fine it has the flash card reader and memory card slots and all that good stuff i didnt know they cut all that stuff out but i guess u get wat u paid for!!!

  • Questions About PS3 80GB Model.?

    May be...
  • I have been considering getting a PS3 but I have a lot of questions.



    First of all, does the 80GB model of the PS3 have backwards compatibly with the PS2? If not, what model does that is still being made right now?



    Secondly, it seems that only 70% of PS2 games are able to be played. Can someone tell me either from personal experience or from a list that Persona 3 and Singstar work?



    Thank you very much.
  • The new 80gb does not have B/C. They stopped adding it after the MGS4 bundle so no model will have it from here on out. You can still find some MGS4 bundles online. The 60gb and 20gb also have B/C up to 99%. The 80gb actually plays about 80-85% though. You can find out if it plays the games you want by going here,



    http://playstation.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/...





    It tells you what you need to know about each system and if you scroll down you'll see the option to click to enter what game you are wondering about and it will tell you if it will play or not.





    Hope that helps.
  • If you purchase an 80GB PlayStation 3 that was manufactured as part of the Metal Gear Soldid 4 Bundle or before, then that model has backwards compatibility. The 60GB and the 20GB also have backwards compatibility. I am not sure if Singstar and Persona 3 are compatible with the PlayStation 3.
  • Dude, if you want to play PS2 games, don't consider a PS3.. get a PS2. You can't do anything if PS3 doesn't play 100% of the PS2 games. It's just a bonus feature. So be happy for what you're gonna get.
  • i know singstar works and i think the 80gb has backwards compatibility but only with 1st party games and some 3rd party games. BTW ps3's are AWESOME
  • The link below will answer all of your questions
  • New hard drive for my Playstation 3?

    May be...
  • I'm looking to upgrade the memory of my PS3. I would prefer to take it up to 120GB since I have a 40 now and it's maxed out. If someone can give me a link and maybe some price quotes I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
  • The requirements for your new hard drive are gonna be that it HAS to be a 2.5" (laptop size, any one bigger than that won't fit) SATA Hard Drive at 5400rpm or 7200rpm (although 5400rpm is recommended, and is cheaper),



    There aren't any specific brands that you have to buy from, but I wouldn't just buy ANY hard drive; Western Digital makes pretty good hard drives, and so does Seagate ( the hard drive that comes with the PS3 is Seagate Brand).



    Here's a hard drive I found that meets all your requirements: http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Western-D...



    It has 160 GB, but is cheaper than some 120 GB ones I've seen



    You're also gonna want to back up all your data onto an external hard drive or just a USB flash drive for the files that are most important to you, so that you can save it onto your new hard drive
  • PS3s hard drive is a nonpropriatary laptop hard drive. The only thing that you need to make sure is that it is the standard size for such a device. Some of the larger ones, usually the 500 GB ones now a days, are a few millimeters too thick and won't fit. If all you are looking for is 120 GB, you probably won't need to worry about that though.
  • what is this obsession about big capacity hard drive? We survived an era of PS2 without any internal memory. Just delete your unnecessary files (a.k.a. PORN). Sooner or later, your PS3 will crash (it happens to everyone randomly) and your HD files will all be deleted. So, you really don't need another hd. Just back them up if you can.
  • It should be a 2.5in sata harddrive. I don't know if its sata or sata2 but they are compatible. shouldn't cost too much. newegg.com might have some. I don't know. I'm a computer builder but have never really dealt with 2.5 inch drives. I'm used to the 3.5inchers. a 250 gig 3.5in should cost about 60 dollars but they wont fit in the ps3. thats the best price quote i can offer.
  • 2.5"

    SATA

    5400rpm

    thats all the requirements

    order a hard drive off amazon, they have great hard drives and cheap too

    i have a 320 GB one so i wont have to worry about deleting stuff.
  • use ebay or amazon to get a 2.5" SATA hdd. then check the ps3 manual or google how to change the hdd a 320gb hdd costs about 50 pounds

    Where do you keep your games?

    May be...
  • Where do you keep your games when you're not playing them? And where do you store your old ones that you don't really use anymore?



    Do I have to get a special box or storage place for my game discs or do most people just have them lying around somewhere?
  • I have a TV cabinet that houses the TV, Wii, Stereo System and Speakers and my PS3. It has two glass paned shelves on either side. I don't want damaged or un-playable games so i store them in there, cause there's no chance of them getting scratched or wet or come in to contact with direct sunlight. The shelves are very deep, so i normally store the old games I don't often touch at the back and then the ones i play more frequently at the front.....

    You can pretty much do whatever you want with your games, they are after all your games and your choice. I'd recommend getting a DVD storage unit/stand and putting the games on that, if they are for PC or PS3 or DS or anything that doesn't come in a DVD case, then store them in a spare drawer or even get a cardboard box if you wish, maybe a small bookshelf even.....

    It's best to keep them in a place that doesn't get wet, doesn't come in to contact with a lot of heat or direct sunlight and don't leave the games lying around out of their cases....
  • it pisses me off when people just leave them around and then they wonder why the games dont work..



    i myself keep them in a vinyl case or what ever those Giant cd cases are called...



    i keep my old ones in the original case ( if i have any)
  • I keep all my games in their cases in enclosed drawers.

    If there is a songle figerprint mark on it,I'll wash it with water and no-more-figerprints.

    I'm at least responsible for my stuff.
  • My old games are in a Cd folder the cases that goes with them are in the closet. My new games which I dont have very many of are just sitting on my coffee. I guess I should start putting them in my cd case.
  • I have a bookcase that i use for my dvds and video games. and for the one that fit on the bookcase i put them in a shoe box.
  • well i have a big movie thing like where to put movies in and i put my games in a special section of it The bottom
  • i keep them in the actually case
  • What is the best radio station in GTA IV?

    May be...
  • I'm into anything in the way of Rock, Punk Rock, Heavy Rock & Heavy Metal -

    I dont know how many if any of these genres are in GTAIV but if they are please let me know



    If anyone can recall in Vice City the radio station 'Vrock' is there one that's similar to this?



    Cheers
  • imo i listened to the vibe the most it had some nice songs but for the harder rock i would listen to liberty rock
  • Liberty Rock Radio was the one i mostly listended too.

    But PLR was fun for the satire, like if your having to drive along way.

    The Journey was a random one i listened to later in the game. Kinda strange music, paly it for the lulz in a car chase.
  • only your ears can tell you what you like. different people have different preferences when it comes to music. do you mean to say that if I like Sinatra, you will like Sinatra too? Music is a personal thing. So, you can't ask and then just agree.
  • depends wat you like if you like hip hop you get classic channel. if you like motorcycle music the llhc i think is the bes choice. listen to each one carefully and decide i really can't chose for you but i reccomend classic i personally don't care.
  • I think Liberty City Rock is the best.



    However, I like listening to the commercials and the talk-shows the best.



    I liked the music in Vice City better. No Hall and Oates in the newer one :-)
  • Liberty City Rock.



    I also like he talk shows because they say ridiculous stuff.

    and Electro Shock sometimes has some cooll stuff
  • i wud say liberty rock



    amazing tunage



    i wouldnt know bout the others cause im boring and only listen to liberty rock
  • the talk shows are HILARIOUS

  • My friend has a 60gb PS3 and he wants an 80GB one instead, and I want to buy one, should I buy his 60GB?

    May be...
  • I was saving up to buy the 80gb PS3 anyway, and I could get it for about $300 from him...
  • Yeah, go for it.

    But if just wants a bigger HDD, tell him that he's losing out. The 80GB's are worse than the 60GB's, old and new. He can swap the hard drive for $100 from newegg.com
  • As long as he has kept it in good condition I would say buy it. Considering he wants $300 for the only console with 97 to 99% compatibility with PS2 games, it a pretty good deal, especially since 60gb's are no longer made. As someone else mentioned your friend is basically going backwards, he's buying a console with slightly more storage but losing the best PS2 compatibility of any PS3 model, when all he had to do was put in a larger hard drive, which is allowed by Sony and is cheaper than buying a new PlayStation 3. But hey, it's his loss and your gain.
  • If he is selling it to you, then go for it. Mainly because the 60GB version is better than the 80GB because on the 60GB version, you can play all PS2/PS1 games instead of the 80GB version where you can play most PS2/PS1 games.
  • It's a bit pricey - I would haggle and get it down to maybe 250. But if not, it's a sweet deal. Your friend's making the wrong decision seeling his 60 to get an 80 gb though, cause all he has to do for more memory is buy a new HDD. He's downgrading, seriously.
  • If he has taken care of it then yeah I think it would be a good choice. Saves you money. but the new 80 gigs are 399.99 doesn't play PS3 games but it has the dual shock controller and a warranty
  • It's not a bad idea to buy from a friend. At least he can guarantee to you that his 60GB is still in good running condition. Just maybe negotiate for $250.
  • i honestly wouldnt want to since the price is high from him and i dont know the condition, but i would not get the 80 gb trust
  • no over priced its used its only worth half value buy a new one then you know what your getting and 20 gigs more :)
  • I agree with KyledKat and LFT here. Go for it.

  • Just don't get FIFA Street. Don't waste your time. Get any game you want EXCEPT FIFA Street. Really you should be getting Call of Duty 4 (don't care if its old, millions still play it), Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, Metal Gear Solid or something. The games you have now are OK. But there are far better games for the same price
  • GET NHL 09

    All the fifa streets are better on psp than on a big tv if you ask me

    Did you switch out the hard drive on your PS3? ?

    May be...
  • I've read that it is very common since PS3's use a standard Seagate laptop-sized HD.



    Is it worth it? Would it mostly be for movies, games, pictures, demos? Does it matter if it's formatted to NTFS or FAT(32).



    Just curious since the option is there.
  • The PS3 allows for additional HDDs via USB.

    You can plug in anything from 1GB to 320GB,or 1TB.

    The PS3s HDD is a 2.5" SATA HDD,if you want,get a same dimension,but higher capacity and change it,so you would not need to plug it via USB port.

    You MUST have it in FAT32 format,otherwise PS3 will not recongnise it.



    I haven't got a PS3 yet,I'm getting my 40GB in November,and most probably get a 100GB HDD for it,for my videos and songs.

  • Is this a good Playstation Network name?

    May be...
  • Is this a good non stupid PSN name----Jimmyneutral if soo then some suggestions please also which is better Playstation Store or Xbox Live Marketplace???.Thanks!
  • There was a time when I would say Xbox Live Marketplace, but the Playstation Store is really getting its stuff together. It looks nice, and it's easier to buy things and download them. It makes shopping there fun, rather than a hassle.

    Um, as for the nickname, sure, why not? It's your nickname, other people aren't the ones that have to use it, you should only care about what you think.

    Mine's rogueslayer0, no one has ever given me crap for it, but if someone did, I wouldn't think twice because that's the username I've used for a couple years now. I'm comfortable with it, and I don't care if other people don't like it or not.

    If someone doesn't want to play a game or whatever because of your username, they probably aren't worth playing with in the first place.
  • it's good

    I can't answer your second question coz I haven't seen the Live marketplace yet...
  • It doesn't really matter if your PSN is a good name or not.

  • How is playstation network (psn) bad?

    May be...
  • I recently wanted an xbox 360 ( i was a xbox 360 fanboy ) But when heard the bad things about it I thought "forget that!"



    Anyway how is psn bad. Some people say it is bad but they never said how. I'm getting a ps3 in about a week so I need some info about it



    Thanx in advance
  • The main reason people say that the PSN is "bad" is the games servers.



    unlike XBL the PSN dosen'e have centerlized games servers, the games you play online, other than Sony games, are played on servers hosted by either the game company or a 3rd party server company. XBL has all centerlized server, this is why it costs to access them.



    other features on the psn are catching up to the XBL only reason they have thing we dont is the 16 month advantage they have, meaning they have had longer to devolp the features.



    PSN recently got Trophies (achivements), but not all games support them as of yet, same with ingame music, both will be mandatory in the future as they are on XBL

    The PSN store dose not have the quanity that XBL marketplace has, SONY belives in quaility over quanity, so unless a game is proven good it wont be on there until it is, alot of XBL games are migraiting over because how well they have done.



    but over all; they are the same thing, diff name, and way diff price.



    pluse the sony network support is great they will help you with any issues you have.



    and to cris t, he didnt as about the console we know what the x-box has, and maybe you need to stop trying to get ppl on the x-box. 95% of what you said is false, mics i have 80 ppl on my friend and all of them have them, only ppl that dont have head sets either dont want one, cant afford one, or are waiting on socom w/headset. and the features either coming out for the ps3 or things we have are either as good as or better than XBL, nice try though.



    welcome to the PS3 man Hope to See you On there.
  • i just want to understand one thing why would u buy A PS3 NOW ????? u do know in 1 month NOVEMBER the ps3 will release a 160gb with uncharted drakes fortune and a dualshock controller for 500 bucks that is the best deal i would wait untill then your getting 80 more gb for 100 dollars more then the 80gb and the psn is not bad there are alot of movies and shows and games you can dl on to the system i really like it its better then the original look of the ps store
  • People who say it's bad are those who are jealous because they pay to play online game while PSN is FREE!!! That's right... FREE. So, you' re question is right, how can you say it's bad when it's free. Alright, some servers act up, but those are temporary. And besides, it's FREE. I don't care if sometimes your connection just suddenly drop. Nothing is perfect in real world. And with the launch of PSN Home, I'm sure it's gonna get better than Xbox network in the next few weeks.
  • For me, I don't want 160GB, HELL NO! I bought the 40GB, now upgrading it to 500GB >=] Cheaper, and I don't care if it mean I'll lose my game saves etc. I can just get them back.



    Oh, and people say that PSN is bad because of lack of downloads. What downloads? There's plenty in there, plus with HOME, and also, don't forget PlayTV
  • it isn't bad in fact its awesome you can download new trailers for games, details from gaming conventions e.g. E3 and demos

    You can email people, open a web browser and ONLINE IS FREE

    dnt forget home either the virtual world will be awesome
  • Well i haven't compared to other consoles yet like the 360 and wii.. But PSN is good actually, and no major problems... And it's free... And HOME is coming soon... So, I think you shouldn't think twice buying the PS3...
  • xbox fan-boys are the people saying its bad they are jealous because psn is free and think because its free it must not be anygood but there wrong i spend hours and hours a day playing on psn and never any problems
  • no its amazing believe me.
  • i don't know why it isn't and those people who say it with no reason are wrong
  • PSN is not bad at all. It flipping awesome its absolutly FREE! You have any full HTML web brower meaning what you surf on the internet on a pc is the exact same on the ps3 and you can even watch videos from youtube. The only community is great and will be even better with the Home comes out. The Holiday lineup its awesome as well for the PS3. Once you get the PS3 you will have the blueray play unlike the XBOX 360 which has the outdate and obsolete HD player which is not used anymore. PS3 controllers already comes a charger cable and a remote that requires no batteries at all period unlike the 360 where you have to pay out of pocket to get the play and charge kit. and the PS3 is already wireless compatibly meaning you can hookup to any wireless access point with the new of a wireless adapter which the xbox 360 does not have either you would have to buy the wireless adapter for a additional $100. I could go on and on. Take it from me I use to have the Halo 3 Edition Console Xbox 360 and decided to get myself a PS3 and I have never looked back at the 360. PS3 owns.



    Read the article.
  • there is nothing wrong with the 360. the red ring of death only happens to consoles 1 year or older. a year ago microsoft changed the console a little bit so that they would not get the red ring of death. the xbox 360 is also half the price of th ps3 and u can already get a 120gb hard drive for it. Around november there will be a home screen update for the 360 making it even more user friendly and more customizeable. along with that update you will be able to download full 360 titles straight to the xbox 360 hard drive so that you wont ever have to deal with disks again. i have both a 360 and a ps3 and there is a hundred times more things you can get and download on xbox live than psn. and also on psn almost nobody has a microphone. and on xbox live there are achievments and gamerscore!!!! and the xbox has the halo franchise. i dont know if you have already chosen to buy a ps3 but if you haven i would recomend the 360. there are also 556 xbox 360 games out with an average score of an 8.3 and there are 414 ps3 games out with and average of 6.2
  • Do you think the PS3 is worth its price ?

    May be...
  • do you think its expensive or is it a good deal ?



    i think its a good deal

    why?

    because you get a gaming system, a blu ray player,

    and if you get a blu ray player alone, it will be about the same price as a PS3



    dont yo think ?>



    -i was born Nov.12 1989
  • Yeah, it's a great deal for all the built in add ons you get in the PS3. I think the Blu-Ray player goes for $300-500 ( correct me if i'm wrong ) The PS3 is $399 ( new )! If I knew the price was going to go down a would of waited. I bought the PS3 for $600 at launch. Oh well, It's a great system and I'm satisfied.
  • The PS3 is only a good deal if you care about blu-ray.



    If you don't, like me, and just want a game machine then it's a lot harder to justify the PS3's higher prices when the 360 plays many of the same games with little or no difference then those on the PS3. The 360 also has the larger library of exclusive titles - including RPGs which used to be a Playstation staple.
  • Anyone who does not have it, wants it, but can't afford of course is going to say it is expensive. Anyone who has it, uses it, and loves it, of course is going to say it is a good deal. Fortunatley, I fall within the latter category. I have the 60GB that cost me $549.00, I would have paid more.
  • Xbox 360 Pro 60GB Console $299

    Or

    Xbox 360 Elite 120GB Console $399

  • agree. Now that Blu Ray is the undisputed winner of the next gen format war, the PS3 is a smart buy.



    Once we start getting games at a faster rate and Blu Ray movies drop from the 30 - 35 dollar range down to the 20 - 25 dollar range, I will buy one too. (already got the 1080P tv)
  • Yeah it's a good deal.



    You get a lot of built in things like wireless and blue tooth connection,you have also a lot of memory you can store stuff.
  • yeah i think that it is considering all the free things you get out of it including hi def gaming six axes and home coming out soon not to mention blue ray so yeah
  • ya because it has lots of feauturesv like they said its like computer thats whati think a very fun game system
  • ya just think about it cd player dvd player blu-ray player games and a hard drive.
  • its a supper deal:)
  • yea it's a good deal
  • well i sure wouldn't have spent $775 on it then don't you think?

    Why does my 40gb ps3 say it only has 31gb after formatting it?

    May be...
  • i just bought it off my cousin and it formatted like 2 times but it stays the same. i use the quick format option. wut happens if i restore it?
  • After a proper reformatting your 40gb PS3, you should have 37gb of space. However double check your music, video and picture files, save data and installed games to make sure that everything is gone and double check to see you have 37gb as opposed to 31gb.



    --



    Now the reason you should have 37gb instead of 40gb is how space is calcuated. With a 40gb hard drive, you should have something above 40,000,000,000 bytes. When it comes to working out how much those 40 billion bytes are in GB, it's wrongly calculated that 1000b make up 1kb, 1000kb make up 1mb, 1000mb make up 1gb and so on.



    So 40,000,000,000 bytes divided by 1,000 is:



    40,000,000 kb. divided by 1000 that's:



    40,000mb and divide that by 1000 and you get



    40gb.



    So that's how space is basically worked out.



    The thing is, it's not 1000 but 1024. so 1024k is really 1kb, 1024kb is really 1mb, 1024mb is really 1gb and 1024mb is really 1gb and all of these little 24s that aren't be calculated right change everything



    So 40,000,000,000 bytes divided by 1024 is:



    39,062,500 kb. Divide that by 1024 and you get



    38,156mb, and divide that by 1024 and you get



    37gb.





    It's not just with the PS3, but every type of storage device, from memory cards in cellphones or gaming cartridges, to blank discs, to pen drives, to hard drives. Everything is sized as being 1000 but it's not, so you get a difference in everything.
  • It takes about 5GB for system software space, off the bat. Another thing is hard drives space is more of a about thing. The system has about 40gb, it maybe running as low as 35GB. When I bought a brand new xbox 360 pro it said i had like 51.7 GB of hard drive space left.
  • Its a cobination of two things. One the OS has to go somewhere. And Two the HD Size actually gets rounded up ( those devious bastards!!) so sorry but that extra space you lost for good. Have fun i know i am.
  • I believe that the issue is that around 12% of the hard drive is taken for system updates and online play so that when you download system updates you will always have room
  • everything with memory is never the amount you have. Like my 160G Ipod says only 148G. This is because of already there and necesary programs that makes the system run.
  • some memmory will take for your operating system
  • you probably just sub consiously loaded all your porn on it, and then forgot
  • Does a PS2 controller work on a PS1?

    May be...
  • If it will only work with "most" games does anyone also have a list of games it won't work with?



    Thanks in advance!
  • Yes,all of the games.

    Proff:When my PS2 broke down,I used my DualShock 2 on my PS1 and re-played all those classics I got,none of them had problems.

    Actually,it's the PS1 controller that has a few problem with PS2.(Honest,my PS1 ctrls don't work at all in some games).
  • I don't think so.



    But Ps1 controllers does work on a Ps2.
  • Ps3 price drop in new Year ?

    May be...
  • is there going to be a price drop in ps3 in new year
  • i asked game yesterday about the ps3 price drop and they said that they are not sure yet.
  • Most likely not.



    Well, not the Sony company itself but the retailers may have a discount for a reasonable amount of time.



    But I doubt Sony will drop the price, but there's a bit of chance but that's not how Sony strategy works. Sony plans to make Ps3 with bigger harddrives but to stay the price as it is.



    For example:



    The 40gb was replaced with the new 80gb for the same price, $399.



    There's gonna be a new Ps3 sometime this year which is the 160gb Ps3.
  • Well there really should be if the PS3 wants to have any hope of staying competitive with the Xbox 360. So we can hope.
  • probably since they are the most expensive system
  • more than likely there will be but not to sure
  • Will the Playstation 3 price ever get between $299 and $399 ?

    May be...
  • Well there is a $399 PS3 so I assume you're asking if the PS3 will ever get between $199 and $299 ! If Sony is smart, they had better get on the ball as MS has dropped the xbox price twice I believe sine E3.



    Since most PS3 owners are techno heads, it's in Sony's best interest to price the PS3 for the masses of corePS2 gamers who have yet to take the PS3 plunge.
  • If you buy a core XBOX 360 thats gonna be 199.99 ok there you go right there. You will have to get XBL if you are buying into the onine gaming thats TP 250 now your gonna have to eventually get a HDD or at least some type of memory unit 512 mb now the total price is 280 have you bought your batteries yet for your controller 10 dollars for good lithium batteries. i didnt even throw in the price of rechargeable battery set or either the charging station for the batteries. Also a longer ethernet coard if your gonna go online which thats what most people are gonna do with their console anyway. The price has gone back up to 300 dollars already and you havent even bought your game.



    My point is I try not to expect Sony to get very much cheaper without having to make a complete base PS3 XBOX isnt doing it there letting you buy a cheaper system but they then grab you with all the extra stuff you hvae to get for it. Nots not cheap. When you add all the numbers together. And thats a really cheap estimate.
  • where do you live i got mine for $99 plus tax
  • yes
  • When you buy psn (ps3) store points with a credit card...?

    May be...
  • ...do you have to buy in increments (ex. 1000, 2000 - like on the wii), or can you buy however much you want? Like, if I have $22 worth of games to buy, can I just order $22 worth of points on the store?



    Thx - will choose best answer.
  • Psn does not use points just cah so if you put $20 or £20 on it will show as $20or £20 but you have to fund in amouts of 5. eg. you can put £5 into your PSN wallet but no £2 or £7
  • The PS3 does not use points. For example, like Microsoft, they use Microsoft points when you buy something. When you add funds to your wallet on PSN, it shows how much money you have. For example, if you put in $20 on your PSN account, then it will show $20.00 at the top right screen. Then, if you buy something say, $5. It will show $15.00 at the top right.



    Hope you understand!
  • Yep. You can add however much money you want. But, you have to add at least $5 to your PlayStation Store wallet for each time.
  • Tekken Tag Tournament PS2 Question?

    May be...
  • How do I unlock all of the characters without using cheats? I played arcade and I beat the game like 4 times but after the third time I beat it the forth and I didn't get any one new. Also, How do I get more outfits for the characters and how do I select other clothes when I select each character?
  • Costume selecting is based on which button you press when you choose the character, each of the four face buttons is a different costume, and some characters have a fifth costume on Start, and Xaioyu even has a sixth set to R1.



    You unlock new characters by beating Arcade mode with a different character as the first one you select each time. (basically, each time you see a new ending video, you get a new character)
  • As the first person mentioned, press triangle instead of x. It should bring up a option for you to decide which outfit you want. As for unlocking new characters, check and see if there are no bonus people to fight to unlock.



    If you don't find any, then go to this website.



    www.cheatplanet.com



    In the search bar type in the game you are looking for, it will give you tips, hints, and cheats.
  • Dont know how to unlock other than keep playing but I think press triangle instead of x when selecting the character to change their outfits.
  • you have to beat the game in all difficulty levels..not just easy mode.

  • u still use a ps2 lol
  • I'm thinking of buying a Playstation 3....?

    May be...
  • Which is better to buy, the 40gb, the 60gb, or the 80gb?
  • Ok here is a list of differences:



    40GB Playstation 3:

    -- It CANNOT play PS2 and PS1 games

    -- Have built in Wi-Fi

    -- Cannot use memory cards from digital cameras

    -- Has 2 USB ports



    60GB Playstation 3: (Is not being sold in stores because Sony took them off the shelves and replaced it with the 40GB version and 80GB, but you may find it online. I will still tell you everything about the 60GB version)



    -- Can play ALL PS2 and PS1 games

    -- Built in Wi-Fi

    -- It CAN use memory cards from digital cameras

    -- 4 USB ports



    80GB Playstation 3:

    -- It CAN play most PS2 and PS1 games

    -- Have built in Wi-Fi

    -- Can use memory cards from digital cameras

    -- Has 4 USB ports



    If I were in your shoes, I would choose the 80GB version. But if you are willing to go buy the PS3 online, DEFINITELY get the 60GB version.





    Source(s):

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation...

    Wikipedia has a chart that I used for this information.



    I am a proud 40gb owner!!
  • it depends really if you want to play PS2 and PS1 games go for the 60gb, it has backward compatability which means you can play PS1 and PS2 games but this means it is more expensive . The 40gb can play PS1 but cant play PS2 games. The 80gb can only play PS3 games but is fairly cheap. If your looking to play PS2 and PS1 games id go with the 60gb for obvious reasons, if not I'd go with the 80gb if your willing to pay a little more, but remember you can always upgrade your hardrive fairly easily no matter which version you get.
  • It really depends on what you need. If it's BC, then the 60GB or 80 with BC. If you don't care about BC, then go with the 80 without BC for $399.
  • The 60gb would be the best, or if you can find the old 80gb.
  • PS3 pros and cons????????????????

    May be...
  • I'm thinking about getting a PS3. My dad said he will pay half cause he wants the blue-ray part. What is its pros and cons? Any suggestions for games?
  • Pros: -Has really awesome games

    - Great reliability ( 0.2% failure rate)

    - Most powerful of all 3 consoles

    - Free and good online

    - Built in Wi Fi

    - You can store your music, videos, and pictures on it

    - You can use most Bluetooth Headsets with it

    - It plays Blu Ray movies, DVDs, and CDs

    - PSN Store where you can download demos, trailers, add-ons for games, full games, and even movies ( costs money of course)



    Cons: - The newer, more recent models can't play PS2 games

    - You can't play in game music



    I highly recommend you buy a PS3, it's a really great console that you shouldn't miss out on



    As for games, these are some really great PS3 games:

    -Metal Gear Solid 4 ( in my opinion, the best PS3 game so far)

    -Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

    -Warhawk

    -Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

    -Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction

    -Resistance: Fall of Man



    I can't tell you which one is the best for YOU, as that's for you to decide, these are just some suggestions.



    Also, there's plenty of upcoming ones as well:

    -Bioshock

    -LittleBigPlanet

    -Resistance 2

    -Socom: Confrontation

    -Final Fantasy XIII

    -Fallout 3



    Those are only the ones I can think off the top of my head
  • There reallyis no cons to the PS3. Complains for most ends are that the PS3 is expensive and they dont have any games. I have had all 3 consoles the Wii had very very few games that I was interested in playing. The 360 I have doesnt even work anymore so thats out of the question.



    PS3 is a very strong and durable console with built in WiFi free online gaming DualShock 3 controller that you charge from the PS3 so no need to buy batteries or a charging deck you can play your games and charge your controller at the same time.

    And of course the BluRay player.

    it also has Blue Tooth capeabilities so if you have a blue tooth headset you can just link it to your PS3 no need to buy anything extra for it. coming soon will be the 160 gig Uncharted bundle pack which will come with everything you need to enjoy your PS3 with nothing else to buy. The only thing is, is that it wont be Backwards Compatible for the PS2 games.
  • um, there is vibration on the controller now in answering to that other guy.



    pro- entertainment system (internet, music, pictures, videos). it can wirelessly hook up with a psp. can play ps1 games. dependable (well built, .2% failure rate). the best video game controller to date (wireless, recharges fast, sixaxis, rumble, great possitioning of buttons). built in WI-FI. there are more i just can't think of everything. oh ya, great psn store and great online, which is free. on the psn store you can download add ons, demos, movies, etc.



    cons- newer models can't play ps2 games. sometimes it can't recognize your ipod when you plug it in. lacks in-game music.



    you can add this to the pros list. it has fantastic games. and there only getting better with a great line up for the rest of this year and next. good for us, bad for our wallet lol. some must buy games are MGS4 and GTA4. after that you have plenty to choose from. i recommend ratchet and clank, ninja gaiden sigma, resistance, uncharted, heavenly sword, etc. and look towards the end of this year and more options will open up such as LittleBigPlannet, resistance 2, tomb raider underworld, armored core for answer, fall out 3, far cry 2 etc. and in 2009-2010 there is final fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy versus XIII, God of War 3, Kingdom Hearts 3, Killzone 2, etc.





    i HIGHLY recommend a ps3. the possibilities are endless
  • Pros- Blu-ray player, Awesome exclusives!, A very solid and well crafted system(doesn't break down like others I know..lol)..Games are Region free(yay for importing)...Capable of many things greater because of its power..You can cure cancer! (seriously, it has this folding@home feature and you help stanford university in its calculations instead of them buying supercomputers, ps3's connected to a single network=supercomputer)



    It also uses standard equipment(example is the HDD, any laptop 2.5" HDD will do)..It comes with every feature which you would normally buy for the 360 examples are the wireless adapter and such..For $499 you get your money worth which would last for 10 years..(because of Blu-ray)



    Cheap if I may say so myself..



    Best is it's FREE online feature...!!



    Cons- It's cons will be erased completely come end of 2008 as its only con is its "CURRENT" library of games...They have already released the Dualschock 3 controller so vibration is out of the question if that piques your poison..Can't think of nymore cons..



    Hope I Helped!

  • Has anyone seen the Latest Home buzz?

    May be...
  • Ran across a post while ago that had this article in it. It was refreshing to see. Since Yahoo had there is PS in trouble article last night. Its pretty safe to say that Sony would hold there own high price or no high price if this came out before Christmas.



    http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-202161.aspx



    Any Thoughts?
  • Nah, man. Home is scheduled to release in October said Agent 47 ( Late October he guessed ). Go on www.ps3fanboy.com and go to the home section.



    I wasn't able to get to the article, but good find.
  • I had heard somthing similar, as Home and LBP should go hand in hand, and Sony have built LBPs Home are for them.

    And recent reports suggest Home 1.00(so full release, woot) and Firmware 2.5 will be out at same time, and 2.5 is meant to be out in October, same month as LBP, so October is slowly looking more definite for a release of Home.
  • well they better not delay it cause ive been waiting almost 2 yrs for this...and the release date is actually November
  • Can anyone help me with a "Classic" PS2 game list?

    May be...
  • There are certain games for the PS2 that are called "classic" on the box. Can anyone tell me all or some of these games? I want to know because at a pawn shop by my house they have games that are classic and those PS2 games are considerably cheaper then the regular, newer games.

    Thank you very much.
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Son...



    here you go and its the EXACT list that they have released so far
  • PS3 HDMI Cable ?

    May be...
  • I have an 80GB PS3 and my family and I have found the tv we are going to get. http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/detai... and I obviously want an hdmi cable to bring out the 1080p and the moneys worth of my ps3 and the tv. So which hdmi cable should i get? I want it to be able to support 1080p. Thank you and the best answers will get 10 points.
  • you won't find cheap ones if you do i don't guarantee it its the BEST. your best bet is the playstation hdmi you can get one on bestbuy but they are expensive
  • Its pretty simple, buy a brand you trust. i use a belkin HDMI. Look for a few features, Gold connectors (this imptoves the clairity, length, no longer than needed (the longer it is the longer it takes to the pic to get to your tv, and if you decide to go cheap, make sure your read the package and make sure its capable of 1080p (some cheap ones can only take 1080i) If your still undecided look at what your new TV recommends.



    And yes it dose



    all games are not in Full HD, COD4 is 720p for an example, so make sure when you set it up you select all definitions that your tv can handle, if you dont you will get a blank screen when a game is not 1080p



    Good Luck
  • Well,Any HDMI cable will work basicly,they are pretty expensive so if you can find a cheap one,BUY IT!!
  • if u search in google "best hdmi cable" it might come up with the one u need i know it defietley needs to be gold plated and perhaps get a 3m one soit allows u more flexablitiy

    PLEASE HELP ON PLAYSTATION 2!!?

    May be...
  • hi guys i plz help me.....i live in pakistan & my ps2 is from dubai and it is not modified so it doesnt run any cds from this place but it runs games from dubai which are expensive,& i have bought a lens from pakistan also,so i was thinking that if the lens of dubai runs cd's from dubai..then pakistan's cds would run on a pakistan's lens. so i wanna know that should change my lens ,will it run cd's from pakistan even if i don't modify it plz help me and remember pakistan's cds are actually made in Malaysia.help! please

    i would be very thankful to you :-)
  • Changing the lens is not going to let you play games from other countries. A lens is a lens.



    If you want to play games from other countries, you have to alter the hardware, and I don't mean the lens.
  • you can attach a part that let you runs all sort of game , you can do that in any games shop
  • idk
  • Turning PS3 Off At Plug?

    May be...
  • I turn mine off with the controller first but cant reaxh the button at back because of where its positioned and need to turn it fully off.

    Is there any risk with just plugging it out while in standby?
  • Nope the Ps3 had a configurated panel (in english) that means that ps3 have put a small fan in the back which means if you unplug the puss AFTER gameing it will not cause any damage. Unlike xbox.. boo lol
  • If it's in standby I'm not sure. But, if you plug it out when it's on the yes. If it's in standby then just flick the switch in the back to off then uplug it.





    Good Luck and Hope to see you on PSN!



    BA? (BA= Best Answer)
  • Yeah, it's perfectly fine. On the manual it says it won't corrupt any data or hardware, but so long if you don't turn it off by the wall whilst your PS3 is on (green light).
  • i dont think so but ask other people try not to take the risk
  • no i do it all the time ...and it still fine
