Can anyone tell me how to get files from a USB Pen onto the PS3?

 

I followed a tip from neogaf... "If you're using an external harddrive or a USB stick organise your files into folders. Create a PS3 folder with folders inside called PHOTO, VIDEO and MUSIC to avoid having to press triangle and 'display all'. Note: The folder names are case sensitive."

 

Thats what I have done, but that still ain't damn showing, and its an annoyance to keep pressing triangle and "display all"

What's everyones' experience of pre-ordering on the internet? Are there any websites that you can guarantee that you'll get the game the day it comes out? I want to pre-order Metal Gear 4.

 

I preordered Phantom Hourglass and Warioware on amazon using supersaver delivery, Warioware came on the day of release but Phantom Hourglass took a week or so after release!

I dont know if Metal Gear is coming out in the US first or not, but if it is get it from VGP

 

If not I use Gameplay and normally get games a day before they hit the shops

Yer i agree with the last comment. I tend to always use gameplay for pre-orders and they have quite often came day before release! (such a good feeling when it happens, hehe).

Amazon suck for delivery. Hate amazon. I've never even bothered pre-ordering from them.

Go to specialist sites

shopto.net

gameplay.com

gamestation.co.uk

game.com

play.com

The first two I order nearly all my games from. Always get it the day before release and free delivery.

 

The other day I turned around and noticed a PS3 sat under my 360. For a split moment I'd totally forgotten that I'd bought one and wondered what it was.

That's what not playing it in a while does to you...¬_¬

Gonna go through with a PS3 with GTA IV in a couple of months. Got a HD TV so a HDMI and Blue Ray Console appeals to me more. Added to the fact that most of my mates with 360's have had torrid times with Microsoft support. Put it this way, each have sent their 360's back a minimum of 2 times lol, kinda put me off...

Yeh, also in my opinion they will all own a PS3 eventually, it's just a matter of time.

 

(i'm talking about my mates btw).

I'm quite worried about having investing in a ps3 incase it flops, but it seems most games are multiplatform now. I wish they'd just make one single platform... arg...

 

Nationalize the games industry anyone? :heh:

Amazon suck for delivery.

 

It may not be Amazons fault but I just found out when my PS3 was delivered it was left outside the door. :blank:

Ah, that's the delivery service's fault, not amazon's. My external harddrive was left under my rubbish bin by some idiot of a postman! Actually, amazon replace anything that gets lost in the post. When Phantom Hourglass took its sweet time I e-mailed them asking where it was and they said if it didn't arrive in the next few days they'd send another. Nice.

 

The Patapon demo is on the playstation store! I'm not overly impressed actually... I don't think I'll bother with it unless it's cheap somewhere.

 

I ordered singstar from amazon and it's taking its sweet time... I may jump boat to play.com.

Never played on my PS3 for months now

 

Turned it on last night to see if there is any new stuff to download and I had totally forgot about "Everybodys Golf" I got the Jap demo ages ago and couldnt really play on it but the English version is great. That will be my next buy for the PS3

 

Anyone know if there will be online multiplayer ?

Patapon got 9.2 on IGN. Maybe I wasn't impressed by the demo because it was set too early on in the game? The levels were very linear... hmm...

Just finished the first chapter in Disgaea, great fun! Love the humor in the game, Flonne is quite funny also!

 

Game-play wise it can be a bit confusing, I still don't understand how to get your combos up aside from destroying Geo Cubes on a map, and don't even get me started on the whole Item World thing :indeed:

 

Anyone who has a PSP should get the game though, so far for me it's better then FFT but then again for some reason I could never get into that game really.

Fact. To be completely honest its probably one of the best games Ive ever played. Literally the last like 10 hours or so I havnt even gone forward with the story, Ive just been levelling up items and stuff.

 

There is a strategy guide available Ebay and stuff, its amazing!

 

I can tell you basically in re to those things. Geo Panels ; If you destroy a geo block thing when its on top of a geo panel it will change the colour of that geo panel, and every geo panel the same colour as the panel UNLESS its the same colour. Example, if you destroy a red block on a red panel, nothing will happen. Destroy a blue one on a red panel, and all red panels will change to blue. If there is another geo block on the same colour panels, then when they change colour it will destroy that one too, and then when they've finished changing colours they will change colour again for the new one, and this continues and continues to make big combos.

 

The item world levels up your items. You can leave with "Mr Gencys Exit" or every 10 levels. Try levelling up crap items first.

Can anyone make a must-have list of PS3 games?

 

Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted, Resistance:FOM, Folk-Lore, Warhawk and maybe Heavenly Sword are all decent exclusive titles on the PS3, probably missing one or two though.

Call of Duty 4

Motorstorm

Ratchet and clank

Heavenly Sword

Nah I don't have a 360. This makes my wishlist- Uncharted, COD4, Assassin's Creed, Singstar, Metal Gear 4, Haze, GTA 4, Resi. I'm on the fence for- Devil May Cry, Ratchet and Clank and Resistance FOM.

 

Oh and is Metal Gear confirmed for 4/4/08? I'd give up my own mother for that game.l
