While after FW 2.0, all of the firmwares so far has been exactly the same regardless of each region, just keep an eye out if anything changes.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to post here or the actual game thread..but since the game thread itself is kinda inactive..I'll try my luck here..plus..I r newbie to PS3 also =P

So here goes..I've borrowed GTA4 from my friend..my ps3 settings is set to 1080p..so I'm running 1080p during the XMB..but when I run GTA4..it changes to 720p..but according to the game box..it's able to run at 1080i and 1080p..how do I change the game to run at 1080p?
*
go to ps3 display setting n uncheck the 720p box. that way the game cant scale down to 720p

Check out other thread..Mr Mod Ninja already link up the firmware download for 2.52ver for all regions

2.52ver got some minor error (I think)such as some said that when you log in it always auto sign out in PSN, if you ask me.. it is..don't know why

hey thanks for the fast response...how do i know if i'm using asian ps3 or jap ps3..need some conformation. do u see it from the codes behind ur ps3 or it's been stated on the box already like the label on the box "J NTSC"

sorry if i ask too much question notworthy.gif

how about this? check your PS3 manual instead..does it got Chinese translation? if got I assume yours is Asian ver..if not probably Japanese or US indeed

i'm not sure if it's japan or chinese character on it, but it's labeled CT and the english one is labeled EN

i presume CT is cantonese?...so it's asian?

anyone know how can i connect a 5.1 speaker to my PS3?? Do i need extra accessories?

depends on ur amp, but most 5.1 system receive optical cable connection. so just get a optical cable and connect wit ur ps3 n ur amp, do the settings in ur ps3 sound setting and all is done. smile.gif
