Question guys, Im bringing my PS3 abroad so i'll be taking it in one of those of luggage bags. Does anyone have any idea where or how I can safely secure the PS3, like covering it with bubble wrap and wrap it with plastic foil.
Can anyone share their experience regarding this ? How much will it cost and Where can I do it ?

QUOTE(tekplyrX @ Aug 22 2012, 05:34 PM) Yup... hdmi video + analog audio OR hdmi audio + analog video works. hdmi video + analog video OR hdmi audio + analog audio won't work. Added on August 22, 2012, 5:38 pmerrmm dashboard?? anyways it depends on the game. so games' dlc are region free, some are locked.. so if the dlc for the r3 is region free, no issues, otherwise, won't play.. (i bought vanquish r3, played on my US acct (r1), bought the weapon pack dlc from the US store (r1) and it didn't work for the game). You mean depending on the DLC it is region free or not? How to know this? From where we can see and notice? From playasia, as i seen, all of the game also showing region free.

Well for the some dlc when i'm about to download from psn (the screen that has the flashing download button) the notice is there saying it will work only for this/that region version of the game, now i don't know if every game does this so i can't say its a 100% fact, if the notice is not there it might mean the dlc is region free but one cannot be sure, so as a safe bet most buy dlc from the same region as the game.

Hi all, i have some questions regarding Playstation Plus and need your help answering. 1).Once registered, i can download "Free Games" from PS+ and i understand i "own" these free games as long as my subscription is active. The question is after subscription expired, can i still play these games or i m restricted to not able to re-download only? 2).If i purchase a game (e.g. Journey) or DLC with extra discount using PS+ subscription. After subscription expired, do i still own these games and DLC? Thanks

If you're considering mobile broadband, go for Maxis. Quite consistent. I can even play GT5 online with it. But you have to DMZ and the Maxis should be used solely on PS3. As for data usage for online, in GT5 case I roughly used about 300 to 400mb for about 2 hours of online play.

The 300-400mb is just my estimates.... it could be less.... but not more....
