[PS3] PlayStation 3 Discussion Thread

soldier: how do you feel about the L2/R2 "trigger" button... not that I don't like trigger button, but those seem kind of weird to use, you kind of need to push hard on them...well I'll see when I'll play a game that use them often

edit: I just tried Xenogears and it work perfectly, but it seems they took out the possibility of the ps2 to make texture look better :\ it's again maybe me that didn't look hard enough or it will be again in another update XD

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

wow just played the demo of motorstorm and god this game is good, well at least the demo XD it's fun and weird to try to steer with the motion sensor XD

now I have a problem I think my ps3 is taking a lot of my wireless network, what I mean is that every time i go online on my ps2 the other comp in another room loose the wireless signal... I'm not sure is it really due to the ps3 but it just started to do this...(but we had some trouble with it like it always say that there's a low signal even if the router is only 2 room away (not very far)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

hmm I'm not sure how to set up a static IP XD

editk when I plug my psp with an usb cable to my ps3, the ps3 detect everything (video, music, photo, etc) but when i put the memory stick directly into the ps3, it detect nothing... is it because when I put it directly into the ps3, it act more like a "external drive" and can detect the folder that are within it?

How ya doing, buddy?

well you did select USB mode in your psp? XD because I thought it was like a computer and immediately go in usb mode and the ps3 found everything in my psp immediatly

ok for the ip static I'll try that

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

hmmm it's been about one to to hours that I play the demo and didn't had any problem with it and the motion sensitivity worked perfectly ... so I don't know... maybe you got unlucky and god a defective system or maybe try to re-download the demo ...

FELIPE NO

I didn't know we couldn't ask any question anymore... sorry if I don't know as much as you about wireless network >.>

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

so you're saying that the hdmi > dvi solution work pretty good?? because is it work I might tried that ^^

I agree with everything you said ^^ I just didn't tried RR7 but like I saw some video of it, it seem good but not for me (I don't like how the car drift like they are racing on ice >.>)

I didn't buy any game because I really wasn't sure if I would really like resistance and I'm a little short in money now XD but after playing the demo, even if I don't like all that much console fps, I find it very good XD well at first I was cursing after the 5th death in 10min of play XD but the more I played the more use I became about the control and the game mechanic and now I can really enjoy it ^^ so I order it online with a 10$ instant saving yay! XD

and soldier: I really don't know what to said about the psp, all I did was plug my psp with a usb cable and choose the usb mode in my psp and immediately all my songs, video and photo appeared in their respective category...

oh I just think about it, what firmware do you have on your psp? I always keep my psp up to date, (I don't use any emulator or other things) so maybe it need the 2.82 version to work with the ps3...

I don,t know but even with all the bad review I kind of want to try untold legend: dark kingdom XD it remind me a lot about Gauntlet: dark legacy on ps2 and I kind of liked it XD so I might try to rent it or maybe buy it. Even if it doesn't have next-gen graphic I think it could be fun enough XD anyone that have tried it can give a little review?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

another question with the hdmi->dvi cable

do you need a widescreen monitor to be able to play the ps3 at 720p?

because you see I have this monitor it's 19'' monitor (not widescreen) and the native resolution is 1280x1024, so will the hdmi->dvi cable solution still work?

(I think this monitor do not support hdcp, so those this apply only for blu-ray movie? or I can't play anything at all on it?)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

ok this is the last question for the hdmi/dvi cable XD

so I don't want to pay 150$ for a cable and the cheapest one are those two (those are Canadian dollars btw)

Rocketfish 4' HDMI To DVI-D Cable (RF-G1112)

Asid Tech ASD-002 Asid Tech PlayStation 3 DVI To HDMI Cable (ASD-002)

both seem identical for me, but one seem to be specially for the ps3. now all I want to know is if one is of better quality than the other.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

wow those price are awesome, even if it's US dollars I still save some money! I guess I'll go order one right away ^^

(oh and btw what's the difference between the 28 awg and 24 awg version?)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

great I just found that I have an adapter to plug the audio cable on my computer speaker ^^ with the hdmi/dvi solution it will be all perfect to play my ps3 XD

oh and btw for those that want it PSN name: Inhert ^^ ( I don't have resistance yet but I'll receive it probably this week)

I was speaking idiomatically.

well I got both of you on my friendlist now XD

I tried something with cobalt, is said chat but with was a voice chat so we didn't do much with it XD (and you guys surely don,t want to hear me speak english >.> XD)

I just need me copy of resistance this week and will do some match together ^^

btw is it possible to play co-op mode but online?

(someone ask how to have fullscreen in internet browser? you have to push on the right R3 button (the analog stick))

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I didn't try it but I'll probably use the ps2 headset that I bought a while ago (to play Lifeline XD)

it will probably work well, but it's wired but the cable is long enough to not bother me that much XD

Double Post:
anyone know when the ps2 memory card adapter will be release? because it's fun to play ps2 on the ps3 but I don't want to star over >.> or is there some other way to transfer ps2 save game on the ps3?

FELIPE NO

really? then I'm sold I'll ask this for Christmas, it seem pretty fun from the video ^^

Gengi is like a mix of Onimusha 3 and dynasty warriors to me XD seem fun, but the gameplay seem a little too slow (why I tend to go for untold legend which seem to be fast with some crazy move XD)

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

zone of the enders came out about 6 mouth after the launch, wish I had bought this game at that time, I only rented it and now that I own the second one I would really like to play the first again ; ;

Jam it back in, in the dark.

oh yeah! SSX wow that was fun XD I didn't own th game but it made me buy SSX3 (on gamecube though XD)

and I remember having quite some fun with sky odyssey too, but it was only a rental.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

roh ninja gaiden! I forgot about it, I'll be sure to check that out (when will it be release?. Unfortunately I already own Half-life 2 and FEAR on PC and Oblivion didn't impress me much, I might rent it to see if I'll enjoy it more on a console than on the PC...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

omg I just watch this new ps3 commercial and just found out that Sixaxis is a palindrome XD

for me I really like those ps3 commercial, I think they really go "beyond" what we are use to with simple game commercial ^^

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

psp 3.00 update came out today, to go with some feature of the ps3, like remote play, that if I'm correct let you stream music, video from your ps3 to psp or psp to ps3.

but the most interesting feature to me is: to be able to play ps1 game that you bought via ps3 playstation store on your psp ^^

currently the only way to have those ps1 game is to download them on your ps3 first and then transferring them on psp, the psp alone can't download any ps1 on the playstation store for now (this will probably come in a future update)

the first ps1 game are suppose to come online in the playsation store tomorrow (but I think it's only for Japan, I'm not sure if it's for the US)

here is the listing of the games that will be release on the Playstation store tomorrow (well at least in Japan)

Capcom

• Resident Evil : Director's Cut

Konami

• Konami Antiques : MSX Collection Vol. 1
• Konami Antiques : MSX Collection Vol. 2
• Bishi Bashi Special

Sony

• Arc The Lad
• Jumping Flash
• Hot Shots Golf 2

Namco

• Silent Bomber
• Tekken 2

if those really come in the US tomorrow too, I guess I'll probably take Resident Evil to see how this ps1 emulation work ^^

I was speaking idiomatically.

yes because only the 60gb has WiFi (it make you stream music/video wirelessly(sp? XD))

well I'm not sure what you mean by share, but since you have the 20gb version and a psp, I think it would be by pluging your psp via USB(but you said you had problem with that...) I don't know if it work with a usb<->usb plug to your PC (I'm not sure if your PC or ps3 can recognize the other)



btw on the remote play, do you really need to have your router set with WPA security? because I'm with WEP (I know WPA is better but the DS doesn't support it) and would like to know if there's another way...

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

well I guess the ps1 game in the playstation store was only for Japan ; ; can't wait to try some ps1 game on my psp and on my ps3 later XD

How ya doing, buddy?

well I got my Resistance game ^^ and I never had so much fun in a console FPS since Golden Eye on N64 XD let see you guys online ^^

How ya doing, buddy?

wow soldier the video converter and the file server is great XD now I can transfer easily all video I want XD I'll try to watch some movies that way^^

Jam it back in, in the dark.

hmm no sorry I never had dsl :\

when you'll get it working, we should meet all three of us someday for a resistance multiplayer match ^^

There's nowhere I can't reach.

well for the file server you have to enter manually the folder that you want you ps3 to be able to download in it.

(ex: you authorized your c:\ drive, than your ps3 will be able to download anything on the c:\ but if you have a d:\ you will not have the authorization to download anything from it)

and yeah all file that the ps3 can't support it seem that you can't still put them on the HDD... but I tried the converter and it work perfectly! and the .mp4 when you download them, the ps3 install them directly on the hdd and they automatically go under the video category.

I tried to convert a movie in .avi and the quality was still perfect! (well at least on my normal TV, I'm not sure how it will look on a HDTV XD)

only problem is some .wmv can't be converted and it's annoying me a little because there was some video that I wanted to put on my ps3 XD

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
