Chowser Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 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.
Uxi Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 They need to come out with Home already. And a silver 80GB.
cobywan Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 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.
eugimon Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 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.
Fly4victory Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 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.
twich Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 just read an update to the Playstation Blog....looks like there will be an official Bluetooth Headset that Sony is going to sell....Looks pretty sweet too and it has the Playstation logo on it. Twich
bandit29 Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 PS3 2.4 firmware due Wed July 2. http://blog.us.playstation.com/
bandit29 Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 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..
Fly4victory Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 I want to listen to my music in all my games.. Not wait for a patch from the developers.. Is that how to listen to your own music playing NHL2K8?
eugimon Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 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.. I'm bummed I can't stream my music, why no media server support?
mikeszekely Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 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?
eugimon Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Nothing that I noticed. MG Online was kinda sucky as far as connectivity issues go, but I had issues with that before 2.4 so who knows?
Roy Focker Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 What? I downloaded it today. Since it seemed to be required to go online.
eugimon Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 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.
bandit29 Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 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.
Dangard Ace Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 My only problem is I have to work so I can't play more on the Playstation. Switching out from game(DragonBall Z Burst Limit) to movie(AVI) and back seem to work fine.
Keith Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 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.
Chowser Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 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?
bandit29 Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 In most cases you can play them without converting. Sometimes the PS3 can be fussy.
Keith Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Did they fix the laggy xmb durring gameplay & whatever the hell was screwing with voice chat (well even more) in MGO?
eugimon Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 no clue. I got my wii fit and my yf-21 today. So between being told how old, fat, and unbalanced I am and fiddling with the 21.. I really haven't had much time for gaming.
Keith Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 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.

Alpha OTS Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I already have Motorstorm. It came with my ps3 and it's......eh. Is there anything there that's worth $20 let alone the likely $30 greatest hits tag?
the white drew carey Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Thank goodness. I want to play Resistance, but every place around here still sells it for $60...
aerocombatpilot Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Does anybody know when or if Namco is going to release an AceCombat game for the PS3?
Keith Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Even I've given up on that. and a hardy "boo!" at Bamco for not releasing Katamari & Ace Combat on the PS3.
yellowlightman Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Even I've given up on that. and a hardy "boo!" at Bamco for not releasing Katamari & Ace Combat on the PS3. Katamari was a crap game. You wouldn't want it anyways.
bandit29 Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Sony's E3 conference is today..11:30 AM PST hopefully they'll give us something that will calm down the fanboys...after yesterdays FF news...it makes gamers look/sound like complete fools lol EDIT....that press conference was underwhelming lol Edited July 15, 2008 by dejr8bud
