Guys, need some help here...anybody of u experiencing patch download error for Stranglehold: Chow Yun Fatt's game ? I've got an error during patch download.
Is this game compatible with DS3 vibration ?
Please advice. Thanks in advance guys.
Re-download the patch.
Last I checked, the Asian version of Stranglehold didn't have vibration yet but the US version did. Not sure now, should most probably already have since you said you need to download a patch to play it.

after checking thru all the consoles couch sections and threads.. decided to go for PS3 (instead of the other 2 consoles for now) but hv these questions
a. Asia or Japan set recommended? most shops i asked all stocked with J sets.
b. any USB device (formatted to FAT32) can be used? eg. kingmax superstick
c. the USB device need to be safely removed (like pc) or just unplug like tat? (soreee.. hv to ask stupid qs)
d. rough/fair price for DS3 controller now? shops dun do trade-in for 6axis.. need to buy separately
e. what can i do with the 6axis after getting DS3?
dun really play multiplayer games so dun nid extra controller
f. any shop where i can get the ps3 media remote control?
g. any other things i need to know?
thank u.. thank u..
note: i read thru the FAQ here and other sites as well b4 i posted this
a. Asia would mean a few different regions, it can be a SG set, HK set or even Taiwan set. Either way, go for a SG set. In that way, since Blu-Ray movies on sale here right now is Region 1, then it wouldn't be a problem to play it on a SG set. Furthermore, if really need to warranty(which I hope not) then it wouldn't be as big of a hassle as sending a Jap set back to Japan.
b. Yes, most if not all USB external storage can be used with the PS3 after its formatted with FAT32(which is the default format for all external storage anyway).
c. Make sure that theres no data transfering/copying to the PS3 or vice versa first, then you can just pull out your USB device.
d. Most shops selling DS3 for around RM160-RM180 now. Don't pay more than RM190 for a DS3 though.
e. You can use the SIXAXIS controller with your PC as a gamepad by downloading the SIXAXIS patch, google it up.
f. Go to PS Zone, Gamers Solution or SCE. I'm sure one of them have the PS3 Blu-Ray media remote control.
g. What other things do you want to know?
Hope you get a great deal on your PS3!
*EDIT*
b. RM1280 (40gb) cheapest i asked.. any better or im getting conned?
Didn't see you editing your post.
Anyways, Sony is releasing an upgrade to the current 40GB SKU next month. Which is essentially the same as the current 40GB version, just with an 80GB HDD and a DS3 instead of the SIXAXIS. So basically then, it will remedy your problem with having 2 controllers(one being useless in your case). The price should be about the same as the current 40GB version though, since Sony announced it officially as being the same.
RM1280 is a rather good deal, as many shops are selling within the RM1350-RM1400+ range.
