Uh, that's not what I see as optimising. That's because when you hit the PS button the whole game is paused/stopped and then resumed when you hit it again.

Most games have the game running in the background while you navigate the XMB.

yea I know. Normally it took couple of seconds and I can on the PS3 with my controller. But now took more than 5 minutes? Just see it keep blinking then have to retry. Only can manage to sync.

Same when hook with usb cable

I see, what's the FW on your PS3 at the moment? Might be a controller or console issue. Have you tried with other controllers? (if you have spares of course).

Anyone ever wondered how much space does a PS3 blu ray disc occupy? DMC4 for PC fits on a single sided DVD, so what gives on blu ray?

audio takes up alot of space on ps3 games.(blu ray)

BTW is there any way to download demos from PS Store using PC instead of PS3?

Added on April 15, 2010, 3:53 pmHow does it compares with PC games then? I thought PC games also support DTS or DD5.1?

PS3 games generally use uncompressed audio,whereas the 360 uses compressed audio.

dunno bout pc cos i dont really touch pc gaming much

some ps3 games are even less than 4gb. however i believe sony has imposed the requirement to press all ps3 games on br discs, same like all ps2 games must be pressed on dvd even though they can occupy a single cdrom.

Yet I'm still using my 5 years old generic 2.1 channel speaker...

Hie guyz..wanna ask 1 question...does the item shown below in the picture compatible with ps3? both mic and sound...I got headset d,so kinda waste for me to buy blutut headset juz for ps3...

AFAIK, PS3 can't output sound through USB, but mic can.

Hi guys. Am new to using PS3 here so hopefully can get an answer.

When I'm downloading in the background (around 1 GB) can I still play games like Heavy Rain or others? Will it affect my download?

oh...how about voice from the chat? like example comm. wit fren on voice chat features in ps3...

It depends on what kind of content you are downloading. If it's a Game Update, then no you cannot do Background Downloading. However if it's anything from PSN, Game Demos or something then yes you can download in the background. It's very noticeable which ones you can background download and which ones you can't.

However, bear in mind that the PS3 has a system implemented where you play online games, for example Fat Princess or WKC, your downloads in the background will be automatically set into Pending and will only resume when you're not in Online mode in the game.

early PS2 games were on CDs. Tekken tag, virtua fighter, star wars racing, the first dvd game for ps2 was Kessen if i am not mistaken

I even remembered the very first bypass for the PS2 was to make pirated CDs of PS2 games and a switch plugged into the USB port lol.

oh my internets sos was rong
sry

mine was called "s-box",if i remember correctly xD

needed to use a gameshark CD to boot up the ps2

then once in the menu,press the switch and switch discs

Yeah! Correct lol. Just that mine was using AR2 instead hahaha. First time seeing the memory card as well.

ya ya..[mine
