One question guys.
If I just turn off the PS3 from the in-game and not from XMB, is it okay? Or it could damage the console?

Generally, it shouldn't affect the PS3.
But it's always bad to turn an electronic off when it's still working through something.

There are many games that even when you pause, the console will continue to process data.

Oh, Thank you ben.
Yea my friend is the one saying I can't just turn off like that. Need to go through XMB first. But yea, never try it anyways.

Just want to ask, how we get the PS3 update files for Asia so fast when Asian Playstation sites still dont have it? (i check HK and Msia and they;re still on 3.73).


Added on November 30, 2011, 9:37 pmHey, even the US site doesn't have it yet. Anyone downloaded it already and installed it?
*

btw will there be any effect on the console if you use a cheap controller, i.e x ori and such??? hmm.gif

It do effect the console. nod.gif
Say, what if you play some intense game like battlefield using tak ori controller, and you find some prey to knife, suddenly your tak ori controller kaput and make small explosion. You terkejut and melatah and straight want to campak that controller along with console too. laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Hi All,

I am new to PS3 & planning to buy PS3 320GB White this week, understand that Singapore set is more cheaper RM 100 compare to Malaysia set. Should i get Singapore set or Malaysia set ? is that any different when you register Playstation Network ? Warranty ?

Thanks guy !

Bro shahreza,
Are u sure?if it is..Yahoo!!!!!!
But last time for battefield 3,i need to update first b4 i can play.not sure why it like that.maybe the system detected the internet connectivity smile.gif

Because DICE release the patch for multiplayer. It's a must if you need to play multiplayer but not necessary if you plan on playing the campaign only without internet connection.

explain more plz

framerate stutter? online lagging?

what games? did the ps3 freezes a lot recently?  hmm.gif
*
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

try Rebuild Database and Restore File System hmm.gif
*
before I have to do that I have to back up all data first right?
does my External have to be in Fat32 format for it able to back up the data? hmm.gif

After doing the rebuild database, everything goes smooth for probably couples of minutes. Try to play two player in fifa12 and it start lagging like I was playing online. Same goes to Battlefield, after spawn I have to wait atleast 10 seconds for the gun to appear and start shooting.
I suspect my hdd problem. hmm.gif
