The PlayStation 3 Thread 80GB Edition

Is the PS3 80gig MGS4 Bundle a limited edition?

My Gamestop dude said that every store in our area only got two to sell. No plans on restocking.

It's basically a 80gb PS3 with Dualshock 3 controller and a free copy of MGS4.

They need to come out with Home already. And a silver 80GB.

Home needs to be great at release. If they send it out in a less than perfect state, they are going to be crucified. Sony gets enough flack for being late to the game and expensive. I can wait untill it's good and bug free.

meh... I think people are being a little childish over a free product and I think Sony bit off a bit too much to chew for a free product.

I don't get the appeal of Home... but then, I don't get the appeal of 2nd Life or any of those other services. I just don't think it will be the system seller that people think it will be but I think it should be a fun diversion during the lulls between games.

I bought the HDMI cable and hooked up the PS3 to the Sony KSL26S3000.

Lego Indiana Jones looks great but there is a "wave" pattern and moves down the screen from time to time.

None of my other PS3 or PS2 games do that.

Also finally got the Blu-ray disks. They look great but two of the night scenes in "Flight of the Phoenix" has a white signal pattern.

I have read that the Bravia TV doesn't do black/night very well but this is the first that I have seen it.

Bah the one feature I wanted.. is crippled...this limited custom soundtrack feature is BS. I know the Burnout patch comes out next week but I want to listen to my music in all my games.. <_< Not wait for a patch from the developers.. <_<

What?

I downloaded it today. Since it seemed to be required to go online.

yeah, apparantly some people were reporting that after updating, their system wouldn't finish booting and just get stuck at that wavy screen.

The only problem I've been having is that when I go to the XMB menu during any game and then try to go back to the game, my PS3 sometimes locks up. After about 30 secs or so the system beeps and reboots. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

I only played fo ra copule hours last night, and only switched through the xmb to test it, but no problems. Though the XMB does seem a bit laggy when you're playing a game.

Sony pulls 2.40 firmware.

I was too lazy to turn on my PS3 today, so I never downloaded it. Any of you guys having any problems?

ok, I was wondering why it wouldn't let me update it last night.

I haven't tried it yet, but does the PS3 play AVIs and MPEGs if I have them on a memory stick?

Or do I have to do a conversion like I did with the PSP?

Shhh, don't tell me about new Yamato releases, I've decided that if I pretend they don't exist, I won't be insanely driven to buy them :) You can't imagine how hard it was passing on the VF-0S & 1/60 YF-19.

Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest for Booty on PSN for $15

FFXIII still exclusive in Japan (odd but why bother I guess), XIII Versus still exclusive to PS3

Edit: Nothing major really, but this E3 seems watered down for all 3. Nothing really earth shattering. Guess we'll have to wait until TGS to see anything really new from the big 3
