QUOTE(shadow_gouken @ Dec 23 2010, 11:27 AM) I read somewhere at cnet review, that all HDMI cable same nia. Reason is HDMI already is digital, that mean ok or not ok. For me, I use cheap cable also no problem so far. HDMI is digital. It doesn't matter if your cable is gold plated or "monster" type. All HDMI cable will give you the same result.

QUOTE(sjn hassan @ Dec 24 2010, 03:12 PM) ok noted..any suggestion about my problem? manually set your video settings and see if 1080p can be ticked on or not. if can and your tv still blank, chances are that movie and your tv is not compatible. there was a similar problem like this a year ago with FF Advent Children when many people's tv cannot play it.

QUOTE(sjn hassan @ Dec 24 2010, 03:12 PM) ok noted..any suggestion about my problem? you should also take note that certain movies will only play in 1080p. so if your tv can't see anything that means you need a FULLHD tv to play it.

QUOTE(sjn hassan @ Dec 24 2010, 04:13 PM) but i already test it with Pana Plasma 42" HD-ready..no problem as i said before, certain movies have compatibility problems with certain tv models. unfortunately, it seems like your tv is one of them. either that, or your tv got some other technical problem....

QUOTE(sjn hassan @ Dec 28 2010, 06:49 PM) he want to download the demo via PC..maybe he got the same problem with me...no internet at home where the PS3 is located or maybe he is one of those cheap guys who don't want to support original games. that's why he afraid to upgrade firmware.

QUOTE(mr_asrul @ Dec 29 2010, 02:19 PM) i believe it is SG set... i have read somewhere and mentioned that the shop which i bought has bad reputation.. i hope i know this earlier... so how?? do u guys have any advise... earlier in this thread as mentioned by shahreza2000, If the paint color on the wordings (SONY, START, SELECT) are a little lighter than it was before... this is in fact a very minor aesthetic change. Sony wants the white controller to look a little more "icey", if you get what I mean. So this doesn't mean the controller is fake. is this true.. bcos this is the obvious diff that i could compare with my frens ps3 big original controller set from SG. i wanna make claim on this Added on December 29, 2010, 2:20 pmit is SG set...and not sealed.... normally if buy from game shop...is the box sealed?? if you buy ps3 my set from sony style, the box is sealed. if you buy sg set from conman shop, the box is usually not sealed. you cannot register sg set for warranty in malaysia. next time be smart and buy your ps3 from sony malaysia...

QUOTE(mr_asrul @ Dec 29 2010, 03:30 PM) it's not gamble.. it just i don't know there is such fake controller issue.. plus i am so excited to get the console so i forgot to do research first...pls...i am seeking for help here... could anyone advise me ?? how to advise you when you already bought it from conman shop? if you believe it to be fake, then take it back to conman shop and demand they replace it with original DS3 controller. why did you buy from some lousy conman shop in the first place instead of buying from Sony or from truster sellers here?

QUOTE(mr_asrul @ Dec 29 2010, 03:57 PM) first i dunno that shop is a conman shop .. i know it after i bought my console.. will be diff if i know it earlier i have already went to the shop yesterday...to make the claim...i also show them the diff with original controller borrow from my fren.. so now i read through this thread...shahreza mentioned bout the SONY print on the controller is now more light compare to previous version... somehow this is the only biggest diff i can compare with original and fake... so, physically is there any other diff that can differentiate fake and original controller... i really hope u guys here can help me...coz i am newbie Added on December 29, 2010, 4:00 pmoh really? but i can't register my hardware.. it got error mentioned " System Error. please try again".. is this bcos of the wrong input given or just the system is having an issue? some fake controllers will not work with ps3 after updating to the latest firmware.
