1. Online passes do expire..

2. Depends on the previous owner, if the owner didn't redeem the online pass, then you can still redeem the online pass...

3. US PSN/SEN - more content, dlc, games, release date (faster then MY PSN) etc...

4. Yes, you can earn trophies on MY PSN using a Us Region Ps3 game...

thanks for your reply...

erm... so what about brand new games? does the online pass expire too?

Hmmm... i realize sometimes the backup file is very large in size due to game installation... anyway to reduce the size other than deleting those installed stuffs? because some games save file is protected...

P1 139 user here.

No problems in connecting to PSN/SEN, download speed is average, but i can't recommend for multiplayer.

From my own experience, the connection is not stable. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow. I got dc a few times when trying to play mp.

However it could be just me. Other P1 users might have different experience.

to all sifus here, please help me..

recently i bought a new LED TV, Samsung UA40D5030..

when i connect my ps3 to this TV via HDMI cable, it only can output 576p only. whenever i choose 726p/1080i/1080p, the screen will go blank and then back to this 576p

already tried with the resetting with power button off-->then keep pressing until beep..

the same ps3 and cable on my samsung LED monitor is working fine in 1080p

is it could be the cable problem? i'm using a cheap HDMI cable

any solution?

hi guys!
i've read thru the faq for beginners but couldnt find an answer for this.
also most google reviews only used 1 headset.
so heres my question.

can i use 2 sets of wireless 7.1 headset on 1 ps3?

and if i use this setup, do i only need to use 1 wifi/bluetooth dongle? or would i need to use both? (then i'll have no more usb ports haha)

Thanks for helping out in advande pro lowyatters!

(got feedback to "test and see" but i dont wanna burn rm300 for another pair of headphones that dont work sad.gif
