Deathjam Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Think my ps3 has officially died. Been trying to turn it on for the last half hour but it doesn't start, yellow light flashes, beeps, then red light Knew this days was coming but still hurts that it's here and I am not too keen on buying another as I have just spent a ton building a new pc that wont boot cos of incompatible ram that I have to send back. Bad day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad day. Thats sad. Good luck Not very good reliability going by this thread. For the real worst case scenario you should have whacked in GT5, too. Worth it though. I think we have had another gig and half since Spec 2 now. Automatic update saves me plenty of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aimless Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Is it an original model PS3? If so I wouldn't count on that revival lasting; my 60GB came back to life several times before finally biting the dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the hair dryer trick and lasted 3 days before being done for good. Incidentally I've started watching broken PS3's on ebay to see how much they go for may sell mine...

dazzybee Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Will these work on Vita?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Speaking of that, do PS1 classics work on the Vita? Edit: Also, what about the PlayStation Minis (they were playable on PSP, right)? Edited February 15, 2012 by Cube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.C.G Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I would only class about five of those titles as actual 'classics' the rest seem passable but it's good to see some PS2 games available for download though I'll be sticking with actual discs for now.

Happenstance Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Ps1 games will work eventually on Vita but not on launch, its something they're working on. Not sure if anything has been said about ps2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 That's annoying - stuff like the Crash games would be more suited to a handheld. Hopefully it won't be too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.C.G Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Indeed if they are now going to be making more PS2 games available on PSN then wouldn't it make sense to make more import games available like for instance Tales of The Abyss that you could then - eventually - transfer to your Vita... seems like a good idea given the popularity of the 3DS re-release.

Choze Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Looks like Guild Wars 2 is coming to consoles. Systems are not mentioned but PS3 is likely given the hardware and prior Ncsoft deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathjam Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Looks like Guild Wars 2 is coming to consoles. Systems are not mentioned but PS3 is likely given the hardware and prior Ncsoft deal. Think I will just use my ps3 pad on my pc thanks but it pretty much confirms the game can be played with a pad which is very pleasing. Could even use the ps3 text pad or w/e it's called for typing purposes. Wait a min, where is your linky for proof and further reading? Is it an original model PS3? If so I wouldn't count on that revival lasting; my 60GB came back to life several times before finally biting the dust. Yeah I suspect it's on it's last legs but it's been like this for a year now and weirdly, the more that I use the machine, the better it performs. If I leave it off for a month for example, then this problem returns. PS2 Classics finally coming to PSN today, here is the selection available from later today: Sorry for double post but that's a really crappy selection apart from maximo and This is what choze is on about.

flameboy Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Sorry for double post but that's a really crappy selection apart from maximo and This is what choze is on about. I'd say SSX on tour is pretty good too....from what I remember, considering picking it up, all the talk of the new SSX has me hankering for a snowboarding game but not splash out for full price game. Also isn't God Hand meant to be awesome?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also isn't God Hand meant to be awesome?! Looks like I can't read :P but for me ssx tricky was the best. God hand is really niche but supposed to be awesome for those that it appeals to. Never got a chance to play it so maybe now is a good time i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah no denying Tricky is the most fondly remembered SSX. Read some reviews of Godhand looks like its maybe good in a bad way and divided reviewers at the time.

LegoMan1031 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Just gone to play a little SSDHD and had a quick look on the leaderboards, I'm 818 out of 150000 in the world for survival mode! It's gone down from when I played it loads but still made up with that. The guy in first is a few minutes ahead of the others, they must be stupidly good at that mode!

Retro_Link Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Seeing as I don't have my PS3 hooked up to the net properly yet... does anyone know whether the God of War Collection 1 is still available for download, or was it just up for a limited time on the PSN store? It's proving difficult to find it in stock anywhere online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwarf Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 On Tour was very good. It had Run to the Hills as title screen music. 'Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 On Tour was very good. It had Run to the Hills as title screen music. 'Nuff said. Yes it did! I downloaded it last night, still awesome and lot of fun. I'd say it possibly has the best overall soundtrack of a SSX game. I love the bizzare hand drawn black backgrounds and stuff.
