I think it's framerate stuttering or I could be wrong.
Battlefield 3 of course, when on loading to the next map, my squadmate already run to the nearest flag while i'm still stuck at the loading screen.
And also some PSN games, like I Am Alive and a demo of walking dead. The game starts lagging really bad. hmm.gif

check hdd led indicator ... it will keep blinking

it could be some part of hdd sector corrupt

is there any symptom may occurred from hdd ? just need to re-confirm before I straight away buy new hdd.
I already tried rebuild the database, but the problem still happen.. I bought the console on April 2011, SG set.

well the hdd led will be blinking continuously and the game will experience lag ... framerate stutters before the game eventually hang (ps3 hard reset needed)

Hey guys is it possible to charge the controller using PC usb ports?

EDIT:The red lights r flashing..so I guess it's charging right?Is it possible to play pc games with it?I mean need to connect the cable or can play wireless?
*
yes (plug ds3 to the pc usb port)

for pc gaming (the need to install drivers into PC OS)... well to play using usb cable or the pc have bluetooth support for wireless

my phat ps3 shutsdown by itself, most of the times within minutes of loading Disgaea 4. If it doesn't shut down, then things are fine and dandy - except for this one time when it shut down after an hour or so.

screen blacks out, i think there is a beep and flashing red light. press and hold the power button and it turns itself on and scolds me for not shutting down properly. then it checks the system files and restarts. 4 out of 5 times after that, it is back to normal? hmm.gif

PS3 on its last legs or a hard disk problem?
*
system overheat..... shutdown frequently means its one of the symptoms of ps3 ylod

either change thermal paste or get new ps3 instead (once ps3 ylod)

guys,if i download anything from psn then i off ps3,can the download resume back after i switch on back (like torrent)?my internet speed 1Mbps only sweat.gif

QUOTE(davinlicious @ May 24 2012, 09:51 PM)
make sure u pause before off your ps3
tq
*
you can resume those downloads...

also u can go to Ps3 XMB > Settings > Power Save Settings > System Auto-off (After 1/2/3/5 hrs)

meaning you leave your ps3 for few hrs to download stuff and it will shutdown by itself (any download activities will be halted and can be resume later).

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ May 25 2012, 07:50 PM)
what thing you need to careful when buying a ps3 :

1. most important , its not CRACK version ( Jailbreak version ) , go for un-modded ps3
2. check all the items that should come with the ps3 set
3. go for latest model , CECH-3000 series  320GB/160GB model are the latest in the market
4. if there is a shop offering like the situation below ( definately a RECON or REFURBISHED set ) , please dont buy !
a) 250GB or 120GB model
b) cech-2500 series and below

recommended items to buy :

1. ps3 slim vertical stand
2. good quality v1.3b HDMI cable ( my advise go for v1.4 hdmi cable )
3. ps-move starter pack ( include with ps-eye camera + motion controller + ps-move demo disc )
4. ps-move navigation controller
5. ps3 blu-ray remote
6. additional dualshock 3 wireless controller

firmware :

1. yes , everytime there is latest firmware , just update it .. cause firmware will improve your system performance , bugs fixed , sometimes sony will add few features to the system , plus its FREE to download

very good advice thumbup.gif
