is it ok to leave the power on, but off the ps3?

Eg. swtich On power, but didnt switch on Astro.

That means the light is red light.

Will it affect ps3?

i lazy go behind tv to off the switch sweat.gif

Yes its okay.
And no it wouldn't affect your PS3.

Why do you think the switch is at the back in the first place then?

Wanna ask when using a Y-Splitter does it affect the sound quality?

No it won't.
Unless you have ears so good you can even pick up the slightest sound of a feather dropping on the floor, I doubt you'll hear a difference.

What's with the 'multi region' and 'only region 1' consoles you can get at Lowyat?
In your experience, which region are most of the must have games in?

A couple of people have suggested you change your MTU to 1486, both on your router and in your PS3 also.
If still doesn't work, time to contact your ISP.

If it has been posted here, guess I must have missed it. I think my DS3 battery is getting drained out, nowadays my fully charged controller can only last around 40h over the weekend of chronic play. It used to last for a good week.
Do they sell a Sony DS3 battery?

phat one got : PSN internal clock breakdown, YLOD etc etc
Expensive, heavy, old. Its discontinued, so if u buy it, means its old stock.

New: Latest, improved version.
Sony wont release a console that is inferior to predessassor.
so they must fix a few stuff.
Cheaper, smaller, lighter.
so far no problem YET~

Theres no such thing as PS3VideoFormat if that's what you're asking.
PS3 supports a variety of formats, but doesn't support MKV and RMVB.

As for which format the PS3 supports, check the front page.
Don't be lazy.

Hi,

I've been wondering about the psn game codes they sell on amazon. Does it work. Does it mean I can purchase the codes with a normal credit card(which is already registered on Amazon) then redeem it on US psn store. If that's the case then awesome, no need to buy us psn cards which are always sold more than it's value, and no need to use entropay!!
