my console got frozen while playing KOF again... i think it's due to overheat, as it got frozen after around 2 hours of playing... how do i solve this problem? i'm not playing in an air-con room, and my fan is quite weak... other than that, it also happened after i connect my console to the internet through wired connection...

how do i set the US psn id as the main??do i do the "activate PS system" thingy that pops up when we register the us acc in the psn site?
also do i repeat the "activating" for the multiple psn ids(eu/jpn)?

Depends on how many game you want to install, play and keep. I very kiasu, everything also I download (eg free trailers, themes, wallpaper, games, etc.) and I have couple of PS3 / PSN games. If you intend to download bear in mind each Blu Ray PS3 game is about 5 GB while PSN games range around 200 MB to 1 GB. If you're like me, buy, play later (sometimes much much later) and keep it on hard drive then maybe best you get 320 GB. I using 500 GB and already I used up 300 GB (or thereabouts).

hi guys just got my 1st game today.
i noticed some thing at the back of the disc cover it says hd settings= 420p and 720p, so does this mean the game can only be played on these 2 settings even tho the tv being used can go to 1080p??

How much is a PS3 system now? I have a first-gen PS3 (as in, first release) and it's giving me so much problems... Current problem is that it works sometimes, and at other times when I try to on, it just beeps 3 times and switches off... occasionally i get a YLOD as well... Thinking of just getting a new PS3 instead of fixing the current one...

If not mistaken there is are hardly (if any at all) games that support full 1080p. The difference is so minor that I don't think the developers want to add extra load in the system just to run games at 1080p. QUOTE(PS3.Gamer @ Dec 21 2011, 06:21 PM) How much is a PS3 system now?

And yes its time for you to change to a new PS3
