And how izzit that a few models of the PS3 (the 40, 60 & 80gb models wif 4 usb ports) supports PS2 and PSone games but the newer PS3 models can't?
This is crap...

They were expensive and you should've bought them when they were released for RM 1.7 ~ 2k

Why did you bought Slim ? sweat.gif

BTW PS3 still can play DVD's

previously i own modded xbox 360 and i thought is a wise solution bcos i can get a cheaper game although i cant playing on9, well after 1 year i sold my console and now i bought a ps3 to play original game.
Yes the bd is expensive but we can always trade game or buying second hand game if you think the new game is expensive. And guess what, suddenly i became 'ALIVE' again bcos i can connect with the community and its means much to me not only playing on9 but i can meet new friends also.
Seriously, i almost give up on gaming when i playing modded console. Just my opinion only thanks!
*
That's what I'm always saying to my friends biggrin.gif
Online FTW thumbup.gif
If cant buy new games ,buy second hand and after completing it just trade it with some other game...
or buy PSN games they are dirt cheap biggrin.gif

could anyone tell me how to solve the hdmi problem

i've tried doing soft rest, nothing works
i've tried using different hdmi cable, nothing works
i've tried using a different HDMI port on my tv still nothing
my pc who's hooked up to my tv via hdmi works on all of the tv's hdmi ports

i dont know what to do
*
Press and hold ur Turn off power button on ur PS3 if it doesnt work then try connecting VGA Cable to ur TV and connect ur HDMI cable after starting the PS3 with VGA Cable and getting SD display after that Plug in HDMI cable and go to video setting and select input to HDMI and select 720p first and check if it works or not...

@_@ I'm not making sense but try doing it whistling.gif

Hello, i never have a ps3 b4, so wanna to know abt ds3 mapping settings for fps. Does all ps3 fps games allow full customisation of the ds3 ie buttons, analogue thumsticks, shoulder buttons. In a fps game, is it possible for user to set the d-pad as move front, back, left, right instead of using the left thumbsticks? Tq
*
Not sure about using D-Pad tho but all FPS games have 4~5 preset mappings that you can chose eg lefty etc biggrin.gif
