sorry for not making myself clear, i actually referring to bc to play ps2 game...so sorry...anyway, any shop selling the US version console here? for the 60gb or 80gb version that is  nod.gif

Wah you got so many PS2 original games to play on PS3?

From what I read 60GB PS3 got BC with PS2 through hardware but quality not too good. On the other hand 80GB PS3 got software emulation compatibility, slightly better graphics quality, but not all games compatible.

I know it's been said many ties before, but I need to say it again. You really shouldn't play PS2 games on a PS3 biggrin.gif. Get a 40GB instead and start afresh.

laugh.gif Could possibly be. Juz joking

Aiks... how could they exclude the controller from the package? Maybe sales gimmick, trying to pull cust in by displaying low price.
*
Possible that some don't want the sixaxis controller. So with the savings they can buy the DS3 controller instead.

I was at Summit,  looking around for ps3 as well. This shop (Silver X, i think) offers rm1300 for 40gb PS3. Might be getting one later this week.

Nowadays got a lot of imitation sixaxis controllers. Make sure you get an original one smile.gif . But probably most of us won't know how to tell the difference .

wah, form reading these stories, it seem more and more Malaysian gamers getting PS3 to celebrate CNY? no wonder sometimes PS3 stock in SGP is low and close to sell-out. their sets are being imported and consumed over here  laugh.gif

That's why Sony Malaysia management brainless. They will probably only launch the PS3 when everyone already bought their sets from S'pore. They only know how to pick up the crumbs biggrin.gif

Hey guys, all the price you quoted in Asian console
What abt Jap or US console. cheaper or more exp?

Does it make a difference if i buy one or the other?
*
If buy from S'pore at least can claim warranty from S'pore if any problems. I don't think anyone selling sets from US or Japan locally. Anyway if you only play PS3 games, no problems because PS3 games got no region coding. Any games from any region can play on any set from any region.

If you want to play Blu-ray movies, also very little problems because USA, S.E.A, Japan, HK etc. all under same region i.e Region A.

If want to play normal original DVD movie, then must follow back the standard DVD region coding now in existence. .e Region 1 (USA...), Region 3 (S.E.A...) etc. (*Ahem* DVD movie of course can play on any set because region coding removed already).

If want to play back PS2 games (original games) on PS3 (60GB and 80GB models only) , then must follow the old DVD region coding. (Note.. 40GB model cannot play any PS2 games)

If want to play *ahem* PS2 DVD games on any PS3 model, forget it biggrin.gif
