That Guy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Will my 40GB PS3 play all PS1 games? Thinking of picking up Abe's Oddysee as it's not on the Store. I've had a quick Google of it and it looks like it should run although not sure if ALL games work or whether 40GB PS3s run any.
flameboy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Yeah as far as I know all of them run... everyone I have tried so far has worked ok... did you see my reply about the dualshock 3's?
That Guy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Yeah as far as I know all of them run... everyone I have tried so far has worked ok... did you see my reply about the dualshock 3's? Yeah, sorry cheers for that. I wont have the cash this month to pick one up this month, but I might get one soon. Anyone think they'll sell the white one here? Just picked up Resistance on Ebay for £7.37. Not too bad.
dazzybee Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Do the new 40g PS3's play PS2 games? And did you say ALL PS1 games work on PS3?
Hellfire Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Will my 40GB PS3 play all PS1 games? Thinking of picking up Abe's Oddysee as it's not on the Store. I've had a quick Google of it and it looks like it should run although not sure if ALL games work or whether 40GB PS3s run any. It won't run any ps2 games don't know about ps1 though. Well, it doesn't work at all with 40 GB ps3, works completly (via emotion engine/hardware) in 20 gb and 60 gb ntsc ps3 (there aren't 20 GB PAL PS3s anyway), it works partially in the 60 gb PAL and 80 gb ps3 , because it's emulated via software (like 360)
That Guy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Yeah I know PS2 is a no but nothing ever seems to be said about PS1 games.
flameboy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Yeah, sorry cheers for that. I wont have the cash this month to pick one up this month, but I might get one soon. Anyone think they'll sell the white one here? Just picked up Resistance on Ebay for £7.37. Not too bad. Thats a bargain...I've been looking to pick it up...may have to check out ebay. Do the new 40g PS3's play PS2 games?And did you say ALL PS1 games work on PS3? No the new 40 gigs still don't. All PS3's have the same hardware PS1 emulation though as far as I know it is not software based like the early PS3, PS2 emulation was removed from all PS3's produced after date X. PS1 emulation is like 99% there was a list doing the rounds around the original launch of stuff that didn't work...
Domstercool Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Resistance for that cheap? That's a great price, it's a pretty good launch game and great multi.
LegoMan1031 Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Great price for resistance! Good game to play through but playing it now i find it very... meh. Prob been spoiled by CoD4 though.
That Guy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Well I've not played anything on PS3 for a while, can't be arsed with Heavenly Sword and Ratchet right now so thought I'd see if I could pick up something for cheap.
flameboy Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Well I've not played anything on PS3 for a while, can't be arsed with Heavenly Sword and Ratchet right now so thought I'd see if I could pick up something for cheap. Nothing to play?! I've got a glut with The Darkness, MGS4 and GTA 4 to still complete plus MGS1....still wanna ger resistance before the second one comes out.
Calza Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Can somebody give me a list of all the good PS2 RPG's? I just realised I've only completed FFX & X-2 and that leaves me feeling like I've missed out on a whole lot of games.
KKOB Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Well I've not played anything on PS3 for a while, can't be arsed with Heavenly Sword and Ratchet right now so thought I'd see if I could pick up something for cheap. You can also pick up The Darkness and Uncharted for cheaps if you don't have them. If you didn't fancy being retro :P
That Guy Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Nothing to play?! I've got a glut with The Darkness, MGS4 and GTA 4 to still complete plus MGS1....still wanna ger resistance before the second one comes out. I don't like Metal Gear, and own GTA on Xbox 360 so nothing there. You can also pick up The Darkness and Uncharted for cheaps if you don't have them. If you didn't fancy being retro :P I've finished Uncharted and loooooove the darkness but I've already finished that on Xbox 360. If games are available on both systems I've been picking up the 360 version due to the better controller, better online (that friends play on as well), and (not that I'd make it a deciding factor) achievements. I currently own Motorstorm, Ratchet and Clank, Unreal 3, Heavenly Sword, and Uncharted, and once it arrives Resistance. Heavenly Sword I find repetitive so play through a chapter once every so often, and Ratchet I need to get past an annoying level which I will do soon enough. I bought a PS3 as a Blu Ray player so I wasn't expecting to buy a ton of games for it anyway.
flameboy Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 well annoyed about my DS3...got message saying; Hello, we will dispatch your item before 20 June.

That Guy Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 well annoyed about my DS3...got message saying; So knowing my luck I won't get it until 25th June GRRRR I want it now! Thats quite poor. My copy of Resistance is getting dispatched first class on Monday morning.
flameboy Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35193.html This Resistance 2 movie looks awesome...I will have to pick up the first one before this comes out....how long does it take to rush through the story mode?

Can't wait for Resistance 2! Looks the win! And I'll say around 15 - 20 hours to complete the story on the first one. Been awhile since I have completed it though.
KKOB Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Resistance for that cheap? That's a great price, it's a pretty good launch game and great multi. I don't really like Resistance, much prefer other shooters like CoD, even CoD 3 i find more fun than Resistance. I think it's the, in my opinion, crappy character models and cheap ways it kills you, minor frustrations but no where near as annoying as Heavenly For-Fuck-Sake-Sixaxis-Control-Sucks-You-Stupid-Developer Sword.
Hero-of-Time Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Heavenly For-Fuck-Sake-Sixaxis-Control-Sucks-You-Stupid-Developer Sword. Just do what I did and knock the sixaxis control methods off and use the analogue stick, makes things a hell of alot easier
KKOB Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Just do what I did and knock the sixaxis control methods off and use the analogue stick, makes things a hell of alot easier How bloody dumb am i?! I didn't realise there was an option to turn it off! haha Still, the game sucks when it comes to the Bjork-wannabe's bits . . . sadly.
tapedeck Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Just do what I did and knock the sixaxis control methods off and use the analogue stick, makes things a hell of alot easier I did that on Ratchet and Clank and it somehow wasn't as fun. Pobably the developers fault for being shite.
S.C.G Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Looking to buy a Bluetooth headset for PS3, anyone know which one is the best?
Guest Stefkov Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I did that on Ratchet and Clank and it somehow wasn't as fun. Pobably the developers fault for being shite. The motion controls were hardly used in R&C from what I remember. Gliding down from the sky is all I remember doing and the controls were fine for that.
LegoMan1031 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 The motion controls were hardly used in R&C from what I remember. Gliding down from the sky is all I remember doing and the controls were fine for that. Gliding in the air, shooting the laser on a wall and erm when doing the pirate dance? Oh and when u were hacking and had to roll that ball around (although for the last one i think i turned off the motion coz i found it 2 hard on the later ones, lol).
