Would playing a PS3 on a 27" be sufficient? Or is it wasting, meaning, should get a bigger monitor...

QUOTE(Phonzy @ Nov 30 2010, 05:59 AM) Would playing a PS3 on a 27" be sufficient?

As for spec wise, 27" is definitely full HD already, which means it can project 1080p. and lastly, what will be the distance between u and the monitor? my ps3 is next to my pc, i play my ps3 like how i play pc, and i'm using 24" and i find it just nice, so 27" should be fine in my opinion |

THe bigger the better. Don't really care it's Brand, HD or FHD. Plasma or LCD or LED (backlight)..depend to u'r preferences and the most important thing..MONEY QUOTE(hewtwok @ Nov 30 2010, 09:43 AM) hi guys, no need..just charge it until fullWhen we bought our DS3, do we need to charge 8 hours b4 use?

just want to share..maybe most of u already known this..
QUOTE Step 3: Activating the “Self-Cleaning” Feature You may not realize this, but Sony wants to help you clean your PS3 too (well anything built later than the 40GB model). To facilitate this, the company built in a neat power on function that is meant to dust out the interior of the console. Sure you can risk everything and take apart the PS3 to clean the inside but after running this trick you probably won’t need to. Here’s how you activate the console’s in-built cleaning functionality: 1. Plug in your cleaned PS3 from Step 2 – You need to power up the unit to make this work, so return it to its normal home or bring the plug over to your cleaning space. 2. Make sure the power switch on the PS3 is off – The unit needs to be fully powered down, not just in standby. 3. Turn on the power switch while holding down the Eject button – the system should fire up and you should hear all the system fans come on at once. 4. Wait for the system to return to “Standby” mode – If you did this correctly the unit will blow out all the fans for about 10 seconds before going into standby mode. Once you’ve done this process your PS3 should be fairly dust free on the inside. You can repeat the steps a few times just to be extra sure. Credit File Front |

QUOTE(carepayer @ Nov 29 2010, 10:52 PM) You know that once u insert that dongle, your bios will be updated, the next time u login to PSN you risk being banned. furthermore, newer games will have newer firmware requirements, means all the new games you cant play. You also cant update any of ur games. |

Hi guys,
many would say "WTH is this guy talking about"...well, from my experience most of local gamers experience lag online play, this is most likely caused by limited connection due to the use of Modem/Router...~ in order to eliminate/minimize this, you need to forward your PSN ports... Since most of us provided with Ridger Wifi/Modem, here's a quick step on how to do the ports forwarding: Check list: 1. Defaul Gateway, Static ip, Net mask, DNS (streamyx default: 202.188.0.133, 202.188.1.5) 2. PSN Ports TCP: 80, 443, 5223 UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658 (Voice application) 3. DMZ ip setting 4. UPnP enable for further detail please refer to the attached file: ~Common known router added~ » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « hope this helps, glad to share it with you guys This post has been edited by syaryel: Nov 30 2010, 04:50 PM |

Hi guys,
I am a new proud owner of a PS3. The current firmware is 3.41 so i was wondering if i should upgrade to 3.50? I scoured the net and there seems to be quite a number of horror stories on how the update messed up the system. Also, with the new firmware, is installing Linux still a possibility? Thanks guys |
