Have not faced any SixAxis problems yet, well at least for the past 3+ months.

However I have been facing intermittent playback freezes for Blurays recently, like when I watched Casino Royale it froze briefly about 4 to 5 times throughout the movie.
Later realised that this problem was also prevalent with other PS3 users after the 1.5+ firmware update, click HERE for details.

The funny thing is before the 1.54 update, I did not experience this problem as often rclxub.gif. Just take note of this when u watch Blurays and hopefully Sony comes up with a solution soon.

I think it is still US$ 64.90/Rm226.44. The offer exclude products released during the last 30 days! Also i don't think you can use the US$ 5 discount on offer items, I have tried on my new order, there wasn't any add coupon option at all! cry.gif

Little Big Planet trailer and Mortal Kombat 2 trailer and game (USD4.99) is out on PSN US.

Also, Capcom has announced four digital-distribution titles available on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and PC in the future:
Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (PSN, XBL) with new redrawn artwork by Udon Entertainment with 1080p drool.gif graphics and online and offline two-player combat.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (PSN, XBL, PC) with HD graphics and new game modes, improved game balance, new stage background artwork (also from Udon), and online play.

WizKids' constructible Rocketmen: Axis of Evil (PSN, XBL) with up-to-four-player arcade shooter through the solar system as the Alliance of Free Planets battle the evil alliance of Terra and Mars.

Games Workshop board game Talisman (PSN, XBL, PC) with a four-player online/offline RPG. The game world's a 3D and animated reproduction of the board game itself making it a hybrid board/RPG game. thumbup.gif

I wonder should I get the XBL version or PSN version? Maybe will choose the cheaper, better looking and more players online one!

From the manual book of the PS3 said Component cable can give 1080p but i onli can get 1080p using HDMI cable on my LCD monitor Component cable maximum is onli 1080i! Maybe TV can but monitor is still back to HDMI!!!

There is no support for 1080p component for Dell 2407WFP A04, I think. The scaler for the monitor is a little selective and does not seem to allow for it, so DVI might be your only option for 1080p resolution.

Oh btw, am assuming you are using Dell 2407WFP from your sig, so am a little puzzled how you can connect to the monitor using HDMI? Or are you using the Benq FP241WZ/ FP241VW? rclxub.gif

Ninja Gaiden Sigma demo (983 meg) is out at the PlayStation Store US. rclxms.gif The full version is expected to be out in the US in June.

As a side note, Virtua Tennis demo is also available with trailers for Gauntlet II, The Wheelman, John Woo's Stranglehold and The Godfather.


Update:
It seems that the Jap demo might be censored. Read that the US version has human decapitation while the Jap doesn't, maybe someone who downloaded the Jap version can confirm. Its strange as the file size for both demo is the same. rclxub.gif

The FP241VW costs around RM3000. Theres a diferent version of it as well which is the FP241W, costing around RM2799 now.

FP241W cost only RM2,500 at Benq Low Yat, my bro just bought 1, compared to my Dell 24WFP, I have to say the colours are a little more vibrant than the Dell, especially with a PC at full rez 1920x1200 thru DVI.

On another note I purchased (my wallet got deducted USD6.99) the Super Rub A Dub game this morn and it hit an error. doh.gif Then the full game was pulled out from PSN, I wonder once the error is fixed whether I will be able to get it without repaying?

Anyway for the US site, Pirates of the Carribbean Worlds end trailer is up, Gauntlet II - The retro arcade classic is available for $5. Game Trailers:BlackSite Area 51 Trailer, Rampart Trailer, Super Stardust HD Trailer.

Thanks for the review, lapaq... can't wait to go back and update mine.  rclxms.gif

I found a few comparison pics (before & after) - 480p vs 1080p

That's a HUGE different.  rclxub.gif

Amazon is having a promotion : "Buy 2 Blu-ray Discs from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, Get a 3rd Free" click Amazon promotion for details of the titles available. I have my eyes on 2 titles, so if anyone is interested, in joining me in getting 1 title, we will split the costs and I will bear the per shipment cost.
