Yea... can't be true... i really hope not..

Considering one of the main advantages getting a PS3 because PSN its free, unlike X360.

Cheers

free thing always not good

But by making PSN no longer free, Sony might end up losing some support from certain devs, who like the free PSN (e.g. Criterion Games).

Also, those people who previously avoided the 360 due to Live being a paid service would reconsider.

By making PSN free, Sony has given gamers (especially those in lower-earning countries) one more reason to buy a PS3 and to support the ori industry. Making us pay for it would also undoubtedly piss off quite a number of people.

sorry to say, if you could buy PS3, then you could afford to pay a little more...
i dont mind to pay alittle more if they have a good connection for online game...

when new thing introduce, there will be always two group of people, one will support one will disagree..
but in the end, they will implement the new thing too..

I don't mind paying more for better quality, but the thing is, PSN cards are not readily available at all times, and some people just do not have credit cards (and this doesn't just apply to students; there are a few adults who don't have credit cards).

With RM50 extra charge to each credit and debit cards that you own beginning next year, do you think that will motivate even working adults to get a credit card, whenever not necessary?

Unfortunately, it's not gonna to be a feasible idea in Malaysia.

If we ever had to pay for PSN, then it will be analogous to the highways in Klang Valley. We pay toll to be stucked in the jam. Not because of the highways' fault, but due to the bottleneck of the traffic condition and how crappy the roads are being designed in KL itself.

Just like PSN. We pay and yet we are stucked with crappy connection. Not because it is PSN' fault. We pay PSN so that they have more money to maintain their service, but it is our country's favourite ISP which gives the bottleneck. So do you think that still worth the money being spent?

So it will be either you pay, and suffer with the lag, or otherwise, don't pay and play at all.

Added on November 15, 2009, 7:23 pmYou know, some people are arrogant. Look at how the DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) had once tried to pass a law to criminalize people in the U.S. who make copies of music files in which they own even if it's for your own use. It's like if you bought a CD, you cannot rip it to your iPod and instead you have to buy another copy of the music on iTunes in order to stay legal.

OK. Enough of that. Before I kena the M32-Hammer from Mod.

Its ok if they charge for PSN but since they have alot millions of PS3 users, a fee around USD1 should be fine,

Its just a rumour that is in a chain message that has been floating around the Playstation Network for the last few months... so its nothing new...

psn still free

if u think abt ps3 users, howabt psp users?

Well if our ISP gives us good connection I dont mind paying for PSN. Anyway cheer up, if sony didnt annnounce it, why worry? Prolly some xbox fanboy trying to mess things up?

yes, just a jealous xbot who got his crapbox banned by M$. sucks to be him.

however it is a stupid idea to charge fees for multiplayer in PSN, as of now, PSN overall is still not up to par as XBL. I think Sony will not consider this at all at least at the moment, as they need to topple the sales of X360, and free MP is one of the advantages that PS3 has to offer.

Hello thr!
Shud i buy a notebook cooler for my ps3 ?
Will it effect the ps3 if i plug it to the ps3 usb port ?

thanks

Something that runs in my mind all the time..

Well, u could just get those notebook cooler thats comes with its own power-adaptor

So its self-powered rather than drawing power from yer ps3.

Cheers

No and no.
Why? Because it does pretty much nothing if at all.

I've tried using notebook cooler b4 for my PS3.
well'I notice there's a slight temperature down and it does feel that it maintain ur PS3 temperature in a long period of time (it doesn't get hot as fast as without a cooler)..
And it did'nt affect your PS3 if you plug its power to the PS3 through usb port.

But I don't know how good it is comparing to the intercooler for PS3. Hv yet the chance to use it. I think the PS3 intercooler would be better though.

Down side of using notebook cooler is that if your PS3 is not slim version, the cooler might just get crushed. My notebook cooler hv 3 fans. but only 2 functioning..coz one just got crush and the fan did'nt function (until you lift the PS3 up).

imho, dont use the intercooler, it just ends up disrupting the ps3's internal fan. if you really insist on a secondary cooling system, then i guess the notebook cooler would be the better choice. i dont think you need one though.

Hello, I just switch from streamyx to P1 Wimax 1.2mb package and im not using any router, I just connect the cable straight to the console from the modem. While playing Modern Warfare 2, My NAT type is; Moderate. Any idea how i could improve that?

Thank you.

basically u can get NAT type 1

how much of a difference will i get if i connect my ps3 to sdtv using component cable instead of composite cable ? (yep there is some ppl still playin using sdtv )

will i get like 20% improvement maybe ? or less?
