Choze Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Ok, I too am a trophy whore. Yet I lack the trophies ¬_¬. To fix this, I need an eyetoy camera thingy for my ps3 so I can get that mugshot trophy for Burnout paradise. Looked on ebay but it was the eyetoy 2 for the ps3. I am not sure if this would work properly, or I would be missing out if I didnt get the ps3 version (there is one isn't there?) so any advice and links would be greatly appreciated. I am pretty sure burnout just uses any camera. You could borrow someones.

Deathjam Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I am pretty sure burnout just uses any camera. You could borrow someones. tried that but camera did not work.
Choze Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 The xbox camera supposedly works lol. No clue then. I have a PSeye anyway.
Deathjam Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Decided to get this: Damn shopto.net are having some great deals but here is my fave: Disgaea 3 for PS3 at 14.99! A steal that I was waiting for and could not resist! as well as win an auction for everybody's golf and Red Faction: guerilla instead of getting the pseye. Will figure that out later.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) Oh fuck, I just completely trashed my Dual Shock 3 pad, I really don't know what to do, someone please help!!?? :cry: EDIT: Okay, I got a plan, I'll just say I left it upstairs, heard a banging sound, and rushed up to see it destroyed or something, see if I can get a replacement....

Aimless Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 As it happens I just had to buy another DS3 myself as I was having trouble with the triggers; I guess my cat knocked it off the desk one too many times. I'm pretty sure I can fix mine, though, it's just proving very fiddly to reconstruct the trigger assembly correctly. What's wrong with yours?
CoolFunkMan Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Long story short i got pissed off at a game, you can imagine the rest... But yeah, I tried to fix it, to no avail. So now I have a DS3 pad with broken trigger buttons. Anyone know where I can get a new DS3 for cheap?

Anyone know where I can get a new DS3 for cheap? hum, i searched around for one a few months back, couldent find one. traded in madworld to get money off it. worth it.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Well, I have about £17 worth of Game reward points, which means I could get a Dual Shock 3 for around £20. Although I was hoping to use them on something better than a replacement gamepad. :/ But then I could just walk into a store and get one on the spot. However, someone's selling one for £25 on the Amazon marketplace, but then that'd involve waiting for shipping. I have no idea which option to go for...
dwarf Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Go for amazon, the sixaxis is more than usable and you'll thank yourself later. 3 or 4 days isn't long to wait.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 True, but the £25 offer appears to have gone, and the price is back up to £32ish. Looks like I'll be getting it from Game after all. :/ Well, at least it'll teach me to be more careful with my stuff...
Strider Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 True, but the £25 offer appears to have gone, and the price is back up to £32ish.

Don't know if you'd want to check out WHSmith first, according to HotUkDeals dualshock 3 are £19 and many other cheap games and stuff.
dwarf Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Don't know if you'd want to check out WHSmith first, according to HotUkDeals dualshock 3 are £19 and many other cheap games and stuff. That's insane, may have to nab one.
tapedeck Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Ok, to save me from scouring the interwebz I am looking for the best deal on a PS3 as my folks want one. I'm not fussed about games or anything, just the system. Best I've seen atm is £300 at Argos (80gb console with 2 OLD games like Resistance 1 and Motorstorm 1). Because they watch DVD's/Blurays they want a remote control - I've only seen the official one for £18 - anyone aware of any cheaper deals/alternatives? Thought our tight N-E PS3 crew would know the best places to grab a decent deal.

Thanks for letting me know! Game's reward card system was down when I tried to buy a DS3, so I didn't bother. Guess that's lucky though really, considering that insane offer! I'm trying to chase it up atm. EDIT: Well, the only two stores that are anywhere near me haven't got them... bugger. ¬¬ Edited June 18, 2009 by CoolFunkMan

I got mind for a good deal second hand and recently a friend got his off eBay, 80GB console with GT5: P for £220. Otherwise this is a decent deal: http://gamestation.co.uk/PS3/Hardware/HardwareBundle/~r416405/Sony-PlayStation-3-80GB-Console-with-Infamous/ Edit: PSN store update is shit, but I guess you can't have great additions every week. Motorstorm pack looks promising. Edited June 18, 2009 by dwarf
Choze Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Have a look around places running bargains. I think Blockbuster are doing some really good deals and Whsmiths for accessories. Depends on your local shop. Online amazon have a nice one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/feature.html/ref=nosim/?docId=1000211123&tag=hotukdeals-21 Not an expert on the bargain thing.
tapedeck Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 PS3 with infamous/prince of Persia and megadeive collection for £297 in ASDA is the best I've seen. Daft: does that mean that Sony mobiles are gonna link to our PS3's? Sweet! an iPhone app would be good for me though :-p
Aimless Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Ok, to save me from scouring the interwebz I am looking for the best deal on a PS3 as my folks want one. Apparently some WHSmiths are selling 80GB machines for £200. This isn't a set in stone offer, but it might be worth checking your local stores on the off chance anyway.
