bros, one question. Is it advisable to get an R2 PS3 unit to be used
in Malaysia? Other than the NTSC / PAL issue, how much it will affect and is there anyone doing this?

Hopefully some sifus can help. Thanks.

as for games should be no prob

for bluray movies, its different region (asian ps3 shares region with the US)

any PS3 system can be use in malaysia .. because PS3 power supply are universal .. just direct plug it and you`re ready to play .. its advisable to get PS3 in Malaysia , rather then bring it back from other countries

Thanks bro, meaning to say, if were to get the PS3 (which is of R2), i would still be able to play
online PSN in Malaysia with my friends and can play games which is of NTSC / R3?

Saw a color Silver Satin which may not be available in Malaysia, hence was actually considering of
bringing back to KL.

yes , you can play online with it , all PS3 games are universal , region free .. silver satin ? is it PS3 slim ?

ooo like jp set... europe got aldy

bro, its PS3 slim, R2 unit...think its from Europe. What about the NTSC / PAL thing? The sales guy here told me R2 is a PAL system unit. Will it make any diff in Msia?

depends on your tv set .... if you have lcd tv/monitor with hdmi input should be no prob

+ if he use flat screen tv , just set the color mode to " Automatic " rather set it to PAL , NTSC etc

i drink coffee brew only

good luck.. hope everything goes well

I believe JB and homebrew are 2 different things

Just bring that sexy silver satin back to malaysia bro.been looking for that color but gave up and bought a white instead

i've tried restoring n then my ps3 switch off itself.when i switch on back,it prompted me to do restoring.before that,i heard a huge clicking noise on the right side of ps3(below power button).i cannot even enter recovery coz xmb not opening normally..so,is it the hdd faulty?
if just hdd,i can find new one..scared if it other problem

is ur ps3 still under warranty? let sony check it

i also think that the hdd gone faulty clicking noise an indication

it's hard to send coz i bought sg set..now regret coz didn't buy from sony malaysia.
update:i manage to enter recovery mode but when i want to rebuild database,it says the hard disk cannot be accessed
