hi guys.

I've searched all around but only came up to a solution to download demo(s) via PC.. which is using ProxyServer.

Wondering if anyone has any idea of other alternatives to install demo(s) to PS3 via USB drives, etc.. after the .pkg is downloaded from link to PC.

hey guys im looking for a cheap alternative as a second ps3 controller.

I know most of u will recommend another DS3, but its too damn pricey.

Wonder if anyone of u have tried Logitech's Dual Action Gamepad with PS3. (i know its meant for PC, but heck, its cheap.. )

Any luck? Don't mind if its wired or vibration-less. Just need a second controller for backup.

the cheapest solution for me is to use my old trusty DS2 + convertor

well dat is true if u have a spare DS2 hanging around.. Then can just add the converter to use it on PS3.

I don't have any spare DS2.. That's why i'm looking for alternatives..

well i do have a Logitech Chillstream (Black) USB, got i for ~RM65 on sale

It is recognized and works for most gamses (>90%), js some won't recognize it (e.g. GT5P)

Well still sounds like a good alternative to me.. compared to RM199 (cheapest RM160) DS3.

For me, im just getting it as a backup and for friends if they come over during parties. Mostly i'll be using my DS3 only..

mind to share where u got the chillstream from? got rumble feature?

NAT type : Failed is the reason you can't connect to PSN. throw away your router and hook up your modem to the ps3 directly and you will get NAT 1.

This is the first time it is happening. I've been using the same modem router (Linksys WAG120N) since early this year and had no issues with PSN online gaming (wireless connection).

If its not PSN server down, I'm quite sure its my screamyx connection issue. Every time i attempt to log in, the error reads "connection timed out". This also occur when i'm surfing via notebook. Some websites unable to load because of the "connection timed out" issue. Eg. lowyat.net sweat.gif

I made a call to TM helpline. The CS person told me there's no service interruption at my area. Only can prompt me to troubleshoot, but everything turns out ok..

*sigh*

if your notebook connection is bad, then your internet is crappy. complain to tmnut and file a report. psn server is not down. your tmnut is down.

Yes. I'm gonna file official complain this afternoon when i get home..

Its getting pretty bad.. downloads thru hotfile and megaupload gets interrupted frequently, max speed +-10kb/s. Not to mention pages like flickr also interrupted. sad.gif
