Razz Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I'm hopefully getting a PS3 from amazon with the free HDMI cable (Which imo shouled be included, what's the point in hyping up 1080p as if it's the best thing since sliced bread if it isn't accessible out of the box!?) I personally hate sony, but really want awesome exclusives like Uncharted and the Final Fantasy XIII. What's uncharted like by the way? I'm a rabid tomb raider fan so if that's a plus, yay. EDIT: Is Heavenly Sword worth a butchers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 To me Uncharted is like a good version of Tomb Raider, so if you're a fan you're practically guaranteed to like it. I really want to get started on Ratchet and Clank but just got too many other games to play. Damn games!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 For me Uncharted is GOTY its simply awesome. Heavenly Sword I think is just alright. You can download demos of both games when you access the PSN store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddage Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Playstation 3 get! Just finished setting it up (I'm using the PS3 web browser to write this!) and so far I'm very impressed. Got it with Ratchet and Die Hard 4. My PSN ID is Eddage so feel free to add me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I posted this on the offical PS forums with no replies. Just wondered if you guys had any idea: I've searched on a few sites so far and i've been unable to find any solution to this issue. I have a PS3 connected through HDMI on a Samsung LE32R87BDX. Whenever i play a game or if i'm on the XMB I always without fail get red flickering pixels on dark areas. I'm running in 720p, i've tried 1080i as well and i still get the same issue. I've tried a different HDMI cable (the one that came with my 360 Elite) and i still got the problem. I've also tried 2 other HDMI ports which i know work and i still get it. I've tried turning off the three options under display (pure white, full colour HDMI, colour blurring reduction) and this makes no difference. Is there any solution to this? The only one i found was to turn off my TV and back on again. This however, is just an annoying inconvience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caris Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Sounds like a hardware fault with your TV/PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 But thats the thing. Its not my TV, because if i run anything else HDMI through the same port theres no problem. And like i said, if i just turn the TV off and on again, the problem goes. Only to return when i turn my PS3 back on again. This just seems like a bug Sony haven't fixed.

Eddage Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I posted this on the offical PS forums with no replies. Just wondered if you guys had any idea: That happens to me as well, down the left side of the screen, on other inputs as well! Did you go into the service menu and turn off dynamic dimming (or whatever it's called) because I only began noticing it once I did that!? How good is the DVD upscaler and what setting should it be on to get the best results, double sale/normal/full screen? I'd rather use this that the 360 since I can barely hear the film when the 360 is on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 On which option is dynamic dimming on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddage Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 On which option is dynamic dimming on? It's in the service menu, you have to put in some weird button combination to get to it, but judging from your reply I doubt you've done it! AV Forums have a rather bug thread about it, dunno if you've tried there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I just turned it off, so thats a good sign. Just gunna see if its still doing it. Will report back asap. Thanks very much Eddage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caris Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 You want Full screen Eddage. That's if you don't mind 4:3 being stretched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammy2211 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Think I'm gonna get one of these soons, just, there is absolutely no games on the market that inspire me to buy it. I'll probably get Uncharted and Ninja Gaiden to start with, but neither look all that for the moment, and the upcoming release list looks equally poor (2 games in the whole of Janaury? Poor.) Still, I want one for Socom Confrontation so there you go. Anyone got any recommendations? Ratchet and Clank is another possibility, or maybe Folklore or something? Anyone know where I can get some of the early games for cheap maybe too? (Resistsance, Motorstorm etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddage Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I know, I feel so dirty :P I don't, I mean I thought I might, then I played the first level of Ratchet and Clank and fell in love all over again. Oh and Die Hard 4.0 on Blu-Ray certainly helped as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
