Dante Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Component Cable GET = HD PS3 for me I need to do PSN... Ill do it when I can think of a name Component cable for HD? What about HDMI cable Chuck?
That Guy Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Finally set up now. Seems to be working now. Hoping it's just a network thing causing it to crash. Will see how it gets on. Bought flOw anyway. Waiting for stuff to download now. I do like the PS3 though, looks very nice. Looks good over HDMi as well although the port on my TV seems loose so I've been having some trouble actually getting it to display. It seems like I have a problem with everything I own... It was nice to click on Themes in the store to see the word free next to each one. I was quite surprised. Too used to Microsoft...
That Guy Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Already have :-) I have no online games though at the moment. Might get Warhawk at some point though. Wont have a headset though. Just played the first 5 minutes of Ratchet and Clank and WOW it looks incredible. Seriously amazed by the graphics. Bought Crash Bandicoot from the classics store. Loved that game back in the day. As long as it doesn't crash again, my overall initial impression of the PS3 is a good one.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 It was nice to click on Themes in the store to see the word free next to each one. I was quite surprised. Too used to Microsoft... I like making my own theme/wallpaper by nicking some images off the net. At the moment I have a wicked MGS4 one which I got of Gamesradar. I tried sending it to Caris but the file is too big
chrizkerr2 Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Totally don't know what to get on Boxing Day. Its either a PSP or a PS3, defiantly gunna get one of them, just no idea on which one. PSP, quite afew games that are currently out now which I really wanna play, will also get a 4gb chip and use it as a portable video device. PS3, blu ray player, only a handful of games which are out now that I want, but quite afew coming out in 2008 which I defiantly want... Just no damn clue, defiantly get both at some point, but one or the other on Boxing day!
Caris Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 PS3 do it! Check what the Jap's are getting at the end of January.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Its just a question of seeing what games you want to play first. If there are more on the PSP you want to play at the moment then get that one and then buy a PS3 when the games that you want to play arrive.
Dante Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Activision has simply come out and said what's holding up the PS3 guitar patch that will allow Guitar Hero and Rock Band guitars to work with each other. The Boston Globe quotes Activision spokeswoman: "We believe we should be compensated for the use of our technology." Well, that's blunt. We still don't understand what Activision has to lose by making the guitars compatible with each other. With so many Rock Band players desperate for another guitar controller, we're pretty sure they'll give Activision the sweet cash they're looking for by buying the game. Isn't that free money for them? PS3FanBoy.Com
ipaul Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Just wondering if anyone on here has played on the PS3 Orange Box, I've read a few things that say it's a shoddy port with awful framerates and loading but does anyone have any personal experiences with it?
Caris Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Everyone over at Game Trailers is saying it's not that bad at all. Graphics are the same just the framerate drops sometimes, not that often though. You thinking of a PS3 Paul?
Chuck Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Component cable for HD?What about HDMI cable Chuck? I would If those clever clogs at lg decided to put an HDMI port in my telly Xbox 360 VGA = win
Hero-of-Time Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I keep getting signed out of my PS3 at the moment. I can access the internet fine on it, just keeps signing me out so I cant see whos online.

Hehe, I have one Well not mine directly as such but one in the house, dad fancied a blu ray player to see what all the fuss was about. He doesn't think theres a massive improvement over upscaled DVD, but hes still glad he bought one (60GB btw).
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 PS3 do it! Check what the Jap's are getting at the end of January. Holy, sweet mother of my mate...That is awesome. I've decided to get the white ps3 in January off a seller on eBay. (Those darn importers don't except Maestro).
theguyfromspark Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Uncharted or Ratchet and Clank? I'm buying one today.
Owen Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Uncharted or Ratchet and Clank? I'm buying one today. That is the hardest decision ever! Jeez....erm....I have no-idea, seriously. Honest, i have no-idea. sorry mate!
Hero-of-Time Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Depends what kind of game you are after. Ratchet is an awesme little platform game with some witty scripting, Uncharted is an adventure game again with great dialogue and AMAZING graphics. Tough call.
theguyfromspark Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 I'm afraid I'm going to push you for an answer I enjoyed both of the demos, thought there was maybe too much shooting going on in Uncharted and maybe Ratchet would be the same thing over and over. Maybe i'll just get the cheapest when i go to the shop.
Guest Jordan Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 I was thinking that in Jan i'm coming into some money, I might invest in a PS3. I was thinking of getting an original 60GB US model... but then i might not bother with the back compat so that'd be pointless. Hmm, any suggestions?
Domstercool Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 If you can find a US model that would be great. It would mean you get to play upscaled greats like Shadow of the Colossus and you know you want God Hand :P
Hero-of-Time Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Thing is though if you import I dont think you get a years warrenty do you? To theguyfromsparks if I had to pick one at gunpoint then I would get R&C but then slightly biased as I love them games.
Guest Jordan Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 If you can find a US model that would be great. It would mean you get to play upscaled greats like Shadow of the Colossus and you know you want God Hand :P Yeahhhh fucking God Hand! Do do do do do-dah-do do! I am probably waiting out till they start packing in Dual Shock 3's (we all know its going to happen, the SIXAXIS will be gotten rid of in the standard configuration once Sony stop BS'ing about it.)
