the price are fixed by sony .. all standard price for sony centre / sony style .. usually MY set will be slightly higher then other imported PS3 sets

If you want MY set better buy from Sony centre coz if ur console got problem then u can easily redirected there.

While for SG set well there a lot of sellers here in Lowyat that sell them and they're a bit cheaper but if got problem need to refer back to their SG hq.

Hope this helps  smile.gif .

you are right , agreed rclxms.gif

most people go for MY set because of the warranty by Sony Malaysia , but from my opinion buying imported PS3 set also not a problem to buyers , since most of gameshop got a complete replacement parts for it .. of course you need to pay for it .. unless no replacement parts then it will be another story wink.gif

plus most gameshop will send for warranty claim to those who bought from them , just pay minimal fees .. just wait until your console back at their shop , usually it will take around 1 or 2 weeks time

return for warranty claim if is still under warranty.. the ports mentions cld be spoilt..

Sevenfold
if you prefer easy warranty claims a MY sET Is good...

*
as long as spare parts available in the market , it should be no problem ( for imported ps3 sets )

hi
im really stress with my ps3 right now

usually what i do us turn on ps3 , go to game n play
which is i set auto login psn.

but sometime i cant connect to psn .even sign out sign in again cannot .

the only way to sign in again was to turn off and on the ps3 again.

not a big problem but its annoying n wasting time .

Planning to buy my 1st PS3,
wonder what should I be careful or worry about when buying
and what thing is recommended or necessary to buy other than only buy a ps3 slim set itself.
does firmware really matters? seem a lot of people keep inquiring about it.
*
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

ma i know what is the use ffor getting the ps3 vertical stand? any pros?
*
1. save some space for your entertainment setup , it looks cool when the console on vertical position
2. air ventilation much more better for the console ( so avoid buying those INTERCOOLER )

Anybody know how much will it cost to fix the blu ray laser in a singapore model ps3 slim since mine has most likely died since i can read dvds but when i insert a blu ray game, it makes a shuffling sound for a second and nothing happens.

I plan to send it to an authorized sony service center in melaka since my warranty has expired and i am currently in melaka.

Btw, my set is fully legit and all of my games as well is fully legit. One odd thing i noticed that the machine has expired nearly one year after getting it, coincidence?
*
1. your ps3 slim ~ singapore set , if you plan to send authorized service centre .. you have to send it to singapore itself ( sony malaysia wont accept imported ps3 sets , they only accept malaysia ps3 sets .. official sets )

2. the best way is send to gameshop that provide repair services , im not sure in melaka how much do they charge for it .. usually i will charge it around rm290

Got any different hdmi branded and no branded for pictures quality?

How much the cheaper price can be found for hdmi cable?

Any suggestion shop at kl for buying some accesories like usb charger...ds3
*
it just the same for the picture quality .. the cheapest i found around rm8 at tesco brows.gif .. but cheapest always at the risk of lost signal .. my advice at least choose hdmi cable between rm25 - rm40 , good enough for gaming and movie
