flameboy Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Just picked up a slim in Tesco for £229 Won't open until I've done some work and got some games. What 1 or 2 games should I consider while waiting for PES2010? Well for starters get FIFA10 not PES... Let me just get it out of the way. Uncharted. Yeah what he said! I'd say my top 5 games (not in order) on PS3 are: Killzone 2, LBP, MGS4, Uncharted, Fallout 3 (ok not all exclusive)
Hero-of-Time Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Let me just get it out of the way. Uncharted. Thats if you can get the thing to work after the update! I managed to get to the 4th chapter earlier but then it started to freeze again

KKOB Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Good plan but it won't work. Here is what to do - beg borrow or steal an external hard drive. Back up your PS3 on that. Put your 250GB in your PS3 (the PS3 will format it as it does with all new drives) then use external drive to put your PS3 back up onto your 250GB HDD. Also buy a hard drive enclosure for your 40GB drive I bought this one and it works a treat Hope that clears things up. Thank you Now to procure an external HDD. hmmmmm. Only one in my house is my Time Capsule
Aimless Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 You could always use an iPod or similar, assuming you have a device with an adequate amount of storage space.
The Lillster Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Any new PS3 owners in here can add me also... TheLillster
dwarf Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) I've used the iPlayer on the PS3 before now, fairly often too, and the quality has remained the same I think. Looks better in full screen, I think you get a better resolution somehow. Don't know why they made the friends thing grey, looks pretty shit. They should let you change the colour at least. I'm gonna check for new avatars. Edit: oh, just read Daft's info, no new avs. Fo Shame. Edited September 1, 2009 by dwarf

Thanks I sold my 80GB a while ago because I didn't need it after buying an iPhone. A guy i'm seeing has agreed to lend me his external, so now all i need to do is buy a decent HDD for the PS3 When you make a back up of your PS3, what kind of file does it make? Is all the information just stored in a folder, or is it all hidden in a package? I ask because he might want me to keep his data on the external HDD.
Cookyman Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Gizmo, Adam, Rowan. Add me. (NegativeCharge) Add me too!
LegoMan1031 Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Blah blah add mee too! blah blah blah What he said!
Ryan Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Channel 5 are providing their On-Demand service for a new line of internet Bravia's, could they also be lined up for the PS3 next to the iPlayer?
Daft Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Nice. Guess that's the Gadget Show sorted. 'Flashforward' also looks like it could be good. 4oD please.
dwarf Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Atm I'm thinking it's a bit pointless to add a TV section on the XMB, with there only being one channel and all. It's not even different to the version I used when using it on the browser before hand. I'll stop moaning.
Daft Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 It's stupid that it is basically the browser but for convenience's sake, it's a good idea. They need a proper client that allows downloading. I really don't see how that could be hard.
dwarf Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Btw, with getting Crash Commando for free, it's quite a good game. Tis only £3.99 as I said and the online can be pretty fun (when it connects). Usually no lag but the dumb thing is that you can end up with a ton of bots which just isn't engaging.
Ryan Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Atm I'm thinking it's a bit pointless to add a TV section on the XMB, with there only being one channel and all. It's not even different to the version I used when using it on the browser before hand. I'll stop moaning. It appeared when you had PlayTV installed. Hasn't just come up as a shortcut for iPlayer, incase you didn't know.
dwarf Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Yeah obviously they'll add more stuff. Don't think I'll bother with PlayTV.
Ryan Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Yeah obviously they'll add more stuff. Don't think I'll bother with PlayTV. Considering it if PS3 gets the On-Demand features on par with Virgin, 4oD and all that. Fuck Virgin! Ps. Fuck Virgin.
tapedeck Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Play TV is awesome. New update with PS3 intro is sexual.
Ryan Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Is the Playstation Eye worth getting? Without EyePet, I'd say no. But for video conferencing (if that's your bag, baby), yep.
flameboy Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Atm I'm thinking it's a bit pointless to add a TV section on the XMB, with there only being one channel and all. It's not even different to the version I used when using it on the browser before hand. I'll stop moaning. Thing is its better than the previous browser solution as you had to dick around zooming to get the screen to fit properly whereas this one just lets you click and go its a small one but makes me more inclined to use it... Five on Demand is a nice addition but 4oD is the big one for me...
Daft Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 BBC iPlayer doesn't seem to want to play videos for me today. And I managed to crash the OS. Nice update Sony.
