QUOTE(double_agent @ Dec 25 2008, 03:56 PM) I have two noob questions here: q1. not really. only some games allow you to do this like wipeout hd. most games do not. 1.Can you play music from your PS3's hard drive while playing games(like the 360)? 2.What is the average price of a DS3?  |

hey anyone know if you can turn off the function that uses your joypad to turn on the ps3. i only wanna turn it on by pressing the machine not on the joypad. sometimes my mom chucks the controller into the drawer and it turns the ps on. i always get heart attack when i come down and its on. i found the auto turn off function so its ok. but yeah wondering if we can turn off that controlling thing.

QUOTE(double_agent @ Dec 26 2008, 02:28 PM) A couple more noob questions: i think it should be ok. but it depends on how good your inet provider is. streamyx is a bit unstable. some people with 1mbps+ have gaming problems. 1.I have a 512 KB internet connection.Would that be enough to play online games? 2.Is there any danger of virus infection while browsing the web with the PS3? virus infection... i wont say 100% no. but if im not mistaken you can download an antivirus. inet is inet you know. if you searching prawn sites or illegal DL sites on your ps3 sure got something dangerous. |

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Dec 28 2008, 09:51 PM) To say its not running, thats wrong. i guess you could picture your ps3 as a pc when you are not playing games. i leave my pc on for weeks. kakaka. no problem...touch wood. Everything is running as long as your PS3 is on, its just that certain parts of the hardware is idling. btw. ps3 got an auto shut off feature. will it shut off if there is DL going on? or only if no one touches the controller? i know if there is a movie in or something it would turn off. Added on December 28, 2008, 10:04 pm QUOTE(defaultname365 @ Dec 28 2008, 06:03 PM) Tsk tsk tsk... some people use their pc's to dl psn content using proxy's. im not sure on the procedure. but its probably on the front page or something.I can't believe how slow downloading from PlayStation Store really is... I wanted to download... err... MGS 4... its like 1.3Gb. I saw the amount increase 16kb every 1 second. That's... 16kbps for a 1.3Gb download = 22 hours !! WTH ?  Using Streamyx 1Mbps...I created a new profile over my Msian profile (Msian PS3..) of US profile... state New York. Is creating a profile lets say in Hong Kong or Japan or Singapore (assuming they have PS Store) make my downloads a lot quicker ??? Thx... - - > would love to noe what country + state you guys put for your PS account to access PS Store... This post has been edited by panda-man: Dec 28 2008, 10:04 PM |

these are region codes. r1-r3 i think. the ps3 can play all regions in regards to games but the downloads from psn such as add on's will remain locked by region. such as if you have an r3 version (asia) of a game you cannot download maps released for the r1 game (usa and such)

r1-r3 ps3 games. blu rays are region locked. dvd's are region locked. and if you got an old version of a ps3. then ps2 games and ps1 games are region locked. only ps3 games are region free.

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Dec 30 2008, 11:49 PM) PSN Video store only available to US residents, you need a US IP and a US credit card to buy it. maybe if he connected to the inet using a VPN? can ps3 support VPN? maybe on linux?Infact you can't even access the PSN video store(atleast not by refreshing those ads until you get a movie ad). |

QUOTE(SWATwolf @ Jan 2 2009, 07:54 PM) hey want to ask... you suffered from the LBP white wash huh. keke. happened to me a few times. usually i think its trying to load a stage and player profiles then someone disconnects or you disconnect or something and so it freezes. the three beeps are supposedly when your ps3 clears the memory or something like that. below is ssjben's quote i found from a few pages back. sometime thing like i got disconnected from little big planet and the screen gone all white. so i hold the PS button and quit the game, sometime, the ps3 seems to restart itself and beep 3 times and then the system restart and relog into my user account. anyone came up with this prob? QUOTE(SSJBen @ Dec 30 2008, 09:29 AM) 3 beeps consecutively means your display settings has been set back to default settings OR Your PS3 is currently still doing something in the background(be it closing the Internet browser, quitting a game completely since some game leaves info on its cache, signing out from PSN and so on). |

its probably some corrupt data during the download. because you keep ending and resuming too many times. try download using proxy through your PC
