What you described is exactly what used to randomly happen during the early phases of the Warhawk beta. You couldn't simply reset or turn off the system from the front, but had to actually reach behind the console and flip the power switch. I would assume that it's an emulation problem, as the software isn't quite perfect :/, but I'll let someone who actually knows what they're talking about diagnose the cause of your problem.

Well, then this is a definite purchase for me if it will improve the image quality. I'm a little confused on what to go out and actually buy, since I didn't really see an S-Video slot on the back of the PS3. I assume I need a special PS3 cord like this one? Or will any third party cord do just fine...? Thanks a lot guys.

How ya doing, buddy?

Dang...I went out to Circuit City and bought the official Sony Playstation S-Video cord, and it didn't do jack

. I thought that maybe it was getting electronic interference from the power outlet or something, so I waited for my roomate to arrive and have him hook up his Game Cube. He booted it up and it looked perfctly fine...

I wonder what the hell is wrong? It's hard to decribe what I'm seeing. They are faint wavy black lines that are constantly moving across the screen from left to right. Is anybody else having this problem with an SD tv?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Not that anybody cares or anything, but I fixed the whole dark wavy lines problem I was having with my TV. Turns out that the auxilary inputs located in the front of the TV were just a little screwed up and gave out that interference. I plugged it into the back and there were no wavy lines. Boo yah. And you guys were right - S-Video does look sharper. Thanks guys.

FELIPE NO

Yay for double posting, and yay for previously exclusive titles going multiplatform!

As listed on the Namco Bandai site, the PS3 is getting Eternal Sonata as well as Beautiful Katamari.

Beautiful Katamari is just screaming for some motion controls. With the option to use the analogue sticks, of course. Here's looking at you, Lair.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well, yeah. I guess I meant that I wouldn't mind trying it out, since it seems like motion controls might actually work decently enough in this game :/. In theory, anyways...

You always need options though, and I'm pretty sure that 97% of players will not want to use motion controls, so the option for analogue sticks are definitely a must.

How ya doing, buddy?

HA! RATCHET & CLANK DEMO ON OCT. 4TH!

Quote:

Despite it sounding like a euphemism for robot hemorrhoids, we're big fans of Insomniac's Ratchet and Clank series. Thrillingly then, Sony's told IGN that a demo of upcoming Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will hit PSN on October 4.

I've been waiting for a demo of this game, as it looks very promising. Even though I never played the Ratchet games, I love me some platforming. 3 weeks!

There's nowhere I can't reach.
