Hey guys, Im thinking of buying another ps3 to use in England, but wondering if which way is better ? buying an Asian / Malaysian set here and bring along or buying a Europe set over there ? OR buying from US and send to England to me ? Any difference in the those set ? or I only have consider bout the Waranty issue ?
*
if u're staying in UK, get ps3 there.... warranty issue is top priority and convenience as well...

depends on how long u wanna stay there....

Hey guys, which set up is better for a LCD monitor which is shared by a PS3 and PC.

My LCD monitor does not have HDMI input, only DVI and VGA but I would like to use the DVI input for both my PC and PS3. With the PS3 using a HDMI to DVI cable.

The thing is, I need a kind of splitter for the connection which is able to select the source with a button.

Which would be better. Using a HDMI switch or DVI switch?

With the HDMI switch method, I will have to use 2 HDMI to DVI cables right?
For PC
PC-->DVI to HDMI cable-->HDMI switch-->HDMI to DVI cable-->LCD Monitor.
The PS3 would connect to the HDMI switch via HDMI cable.

I would much appreciate any feedbacks on this.
*
i've always wanted to buy hdmi switch/selector.... none to avail...

instead found this http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1035975 ... it might be an interest to u...

I know its a stupid question, but if I got the chance, should I get a PS3 Slim or a 360?

It is a very stupid question, but I can't decide between a Slim or a 360.

I want a Slim because it is something I have never opened, ever. On the other hand, I do not have a 360 and have a few games for it lying around.

Please help.

And before the inevitable starts... Flame shield=ON

up to u really... y u have few 360 games lying around?

Thing is... I am trying to collect all the major hardware revisions, but I scared I buy 360, turn to jack sparrow  icon_question.gif
The collector thing is exactly what is my problem. Maybe its an obsessive thing, but Slim really calling to me.

The 360 games are from my old Zephyr (3ROD 9 times). All ori somemore.

there's ppl who aldy collect almost all ps3 hardware revision to date... (only then can concentrate on games collection)

Hi guys/girls,

I am currently having problem with my media server.

Everytime I enable the media server option in my PS3, I will get my PS3 disconnected from router. Also my router will react as if it was restarted. Everything that are connected to my router will be disconnected also, but will be connected back almost instantly. Except for my PS3.

This happens for both ethernet and wireless connection.

Did firmware update already, still same problem.

Anyone else having the same problem?
*
what media server do you use?

Hi guy, I'm new on PS3, just bought it yesterday: PS3 Slim
btw, i try install a game, however i can't locate the "install" option from the game. unlike xbox you can go the game option and select install, but i still can't find it from the game menu.
*
few titles can do full install onto hdd.... nevertheless ps3 utilizes both the bd drive and the hdd...

120gb is generous... once you abt to play a game, be4 playing must install 4-5gb of game data in hdd....

plus the contents in psn stores, i doubt the hdd space is going to waste...
