Thanks GamersFamilia and SSJBen... am downloading it onto my PC now.

Oh, another really silly question - I was going through the instructions for Resistance, it seems there should be a little compartment next to the BD slot, which flips open to reveal MS, SD and a variety of input slots. Err.... how come mine doesnt flip open!? Also checked the user manual and there's nothing on it. The only inputs are the USB slots at the bottom of this hidden lid ???

Coz the new 80GB ps3 does not come with card reader slots. It's basically the same as the 40GB but with a larger HDD. There's only 2 USB slots in the front.

AFAIK it doesn't exist unfortunately. PS3 uses it's own OS and file systems and it hasn't been hacked yet.

Just register for a PSN account...and log into the PSN store. Most of the games are on the US PSN. The JP PSN store has some games/contetnt not available anywhere but it's all in Japanese.

Malaysian PS3 is an Asian set so it would be NTSC

Yeah I agree with ruzty, it's better to do upgrade from the start. When I changed my HDD, my backup was more than 30GB. Unless you only want to copy your save files and re-download all the demos and patches again.
