tat was by Sony style-2 months back, they had stop bundling it already.
Go check them again, u might get surprise with price cut - and a slim unit.

Probably bundle with a better game too.
If really keen of LBP, then get a pre-owned unit from garage sales here.

Crying for some help.
I've just got a 500G WD Scorpio HDD [2.5" SATA]

Had done a backup to another external HDD
Then proceed to replace the HDD, removing the stock 80G to the 500G
However, when i switch on the power, received the below stupid screen

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


The drive had been initialized and format using Swissknife, FAT 32 (quick format).

anyone experience this before? can offer any advice?

Yick! Seems like we have the same HTiB- isn't that Sony DW Z777k or something like tat?
As i recall- it din have any optical input wo. I really got no clue on hope to optimize the sound. Any guide?

Btw- becareful, the TV could easily topple over. Do consider wall mount.

Referring to the manual you are suppose to plug them in this manner:

PS3 >HDMI Cable> Sony Set >HDMI Cable> TV
*
Cannot also - Sony HTiB has not HDMI input.

but my sony set connect to tv using another hdmi cable.

when i want ps3 sound out of the sony set, i press "function" many times until i get "TV"

then the ps3 sound come out.


Cannot for me. Dunno why? Tried before and it went mute.
But u tested and success, funny
I read the manual - in which it says the "TV" function audio input on the HTiB is via stereo jack.



Ie PS3 HMDI>TV. TV Stereo out>HTiB stereo input.
so the final HTiB output is merely steroe, in which no point as the TV's stereo already annoying loud.

Got my PS3 since Sept... so still consider as newbie =P
Sad to say, not many gud games been out for the past few months. The only new game that I've got is WE 2010, which is an yearly event and not really anything to shout abt.

Now just waiting for the so called "many new exciting title " coming out- which "equally likely to be delayed"

sorry abt the rant- it is monday morning

When i got console back in Sept, start off with Ori-packaged Socom and Assasin Creed (1) - sold it off immediately.
Bought MGS4, GT5P, WE 09, KZ2... coz these are my fav.
then sold GT5P and WE 09, anticipating GT5 full.

mana tau GT5 tak mari mari....
now adays only play KZ2 most of the time. Nice game and i'm not bored yet....

U2- dunno why dun fancy it.
DA-O, yeah look nice but doubt have time for RPG....

so wait and wait... GOW3 should fit my genre. but again, dunno if would delay as well

Looks like you've been living behind the bushes for the last couple of days?
GoW3 is confirmed for March 16th.

Yah ka? if confirm then two thumbs up. rclxm9.gif
GOW 2 seems to be the very last game in PS2 that i enjoyed.

Can't wait to see how the PS3 power being fully utilized.
But again- does it offer any MP? Else it will probably last a week or two.
