Try using a debit card.
If not, buy from the US store. Ambank NexG works on that.

i need some helps here too.
for some reason, i cant connect my internet to ps3. it is restricted to a pc (one pc per room)
So, the only way to connect my ps3 to internet is thru pc using internet sharing technique. I tried wifimax, but it seems to be not working properlly. ps3 always give DNS error.
any better brands or a working brand usb internet connector can introduce me?
thanks

USB modems don't work with PS3.

Get a router, connect your modem to it and configure the router to your PC and PS3.

Well.... its hard to say, I see those geometry problems too on GT5: P, GTA4(yea I did, even if you didn't), and in one point Uncharted as well. Its not on my PS3, but I've seen them. Most of these cases is due to the RSX overheating though.... hmm.gif

What game is the most "power hungry" currently for the PS3? Well, the game you are having problems with.... Oblivion.

Bethesda claimed they optimized Oblivion on the PS3 with the Cell CPU, problem is that the game's engine takes a bigger emphasis on the GPU. Being that the RSX is a rather "crappy"(okay, bar MGS4 and Uncharted here for a moment), problems arise within the game. Don't worry about it, many people have gotten those geometry and artifacts on the game.

really? i didnt know oblivion does.. thn fallout 3 i am sure would take allot out of RSX since its using the same engine.

sigh. tried other games.. even GTA4 MGS4 and now GT notin.. maybe i shouldnt play BF for a moment. haha

thanks ssjben. those who suffered the graphics problem had theirs changed or repaired.. my warranty jus lapsed and i am jus waiting to see wat happens..
could be my HDD and its certainly not overheating issues.. (cause i start playin whn its cold.. and the problem pops up di)..

Hi guys,

i've tried using my HSBC c/c for US PSN but not successful, so i've used Entropay which works very well.

However i had a problem, before i dive in with my cash, i decided to try Entropay cautiously out first. So i loaded in the minimum USD10.

I fully understand they will charge me a fee which works out to be USD0.50.

As i understand it they will charge me USD10.50 from my HSBC Credit Card and load USD10 into my Entropay account.

I went to PSN and try to load USD10 into my account but is said failed! I then tried USD5 and it was successful.

I went back to my entropay account and it said i had USD4 remaining to be spent. So my question is where did my USD1 go?



To summarize, i loaded in USD10. I tried to upload USD10 to PSN but failed. I tried USD5 success. I went back and check remaining balance in Entropay, it said "USD4".

This means only USD9 was uploaded! Why? Even if my USD0.50 charge was added in it should be USD9.50 not USD9....

10% of the funds missing from what i enter is quite alot. If i added in USD100 that would cost me USD10! Any of you have this problem?

i don't think i tried twice, but the USD0.50 fee only applies when you upload your money into entropay. And tat USD0.50 should not be part of the USD10 i uploaded. Which means i should have been charged USD10.50 in my HSBC credit card but USD10 should still appear in my Entropay, not USD9.50 loaded in my Entropay and i got charged USD10 in my HSBC smile.gif

Rx330 have you personally used the entropay service? did you encounter such problem?

Thank you very much ! Now its always USD1 right? not 10% of spent amount?

just follow the link that Evirober gave just now..

and remember after download u can copy & paste thru ur USB drive...
but first u must create a file folder first..:and all file folder name must be on CAPITAL LETTER...

first create PS3 folder then under PS3 folder create UPDATED.. then juz paste the updated file under UPDATED folder..

and tada juz cucuk ur USB to PS3 stomach & go to SYSTEM UPDATE and choose via media storage.... rclxms.gif
