What is the common save file size for games like GTAIV? If I didn't plan to put demos and movies in it, just playing games from Blu Ray will 160GB be sufficient for me? I watched downloaded HD movie by connecting my laptop via HDMI output /gg. So I didn't see the need for that. BTW how much is the file size for a game demo? My downstream in my home is only 60KB/s, tops.
BTW the current price for MY set 160GB is around RM13xx-14xx right? Is there any shop selling it at MidValley/The Gardens?
I got an 30'' Sharp Aquous LCD TV and I plan to play PS3 on it. Will it sustain any faulty problem if I play it, say 5 hours per day?
Added on April 20, 2009, 1:04 pmI had also read from GameSpot saying that XBox360 render texture more sharply than PS3. Any comment from PS3 player about this?

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Apr 20 2009, 03:13 PM) Midvalley got few shops there... dont know the price... get from sony style... its highly recommended Your connection seem ok for online gaming... provided that its stable... some games installed in ps3 hdd only take btw 3 - 5 gb space (capcom and ubisoft games apparently), others games need less than few mb only... fully utilizing the ps3 bluray driveĀ 5 hours?... we all here play 24/48/72 hrs non-stop still ok  btw few weeks ago done 12-hr ps3 gaming at MMU gamespot only says few games (multiplatform titles), cant compared to any ps3 exclusives... period!  Thanks for the clarification. I'm really looking forward for purchasing it but I'm not really a fan for shooting, action, fighting or racing genre. I'll be playing GTAIV, RE5 and FF13 mainly. Online gaming is optional for me. So will PS3 satisfy my need? BTW i'm not really hype about XBox360 as PS3 definitely look cooler. Edit: So is there any other cool PS3 exclusive title for my taste. Guess I'll just buy 1 or 2 games per month as there is still no pirated BD or modded chip yet. This post has been edited by D.Sync: Apr 21 2009, 03:40 PM

Can I play PS2 games with CECHK06? If so, how am I going to transfer my save file from PS2 memory card to the PS3 hard drive? Need some sort of adapter? BTW how will the save file in PS2 game work in PS3? Does it read/write the save file in the hard drive?
Lastly, how's the graphic for PS2 game in PS3? Does it upscale to 720p/1080p?

I managed to connect iPhone to my laptop (connected by LAN) via ad-hoc by editing the IP address. Perhaps you need to do the same thing? Manual configuration instead of auto. Added on April 27, 2009, 2:20 pmQUOTE(geekster129 @ Apr 26 2009, 09:50 PM) We'll see. A PS3 zombie network, or a network of infected PS3s chained together to crack a password? Maybe...  You can contribute to the society by using your PS3 to monitor molecular structure/development. I remember seeing an article somewhere in GameSpot about it.

Yippie! Just got my PS3 today.
Just wondering is it better to put it in landscape or portrait mode? Now I put it in landscape mode, much more better when reading disc?
Is it better for landscape mode than portrait? From the way the nature of the disc is being read.

Guess I'll take horizontal position then although it does took up some space.
IF put in vertical position I'm afraid it will fall down LOL.

Still the same... CODE Serial Number / Purchase Information Error
There is a problem in the inputs of Date of Purchase, please check it and input again. If there is any problem about this warranty registration, please contact our Customer Service Hotline at 1-800-81-4963 (Open 9:00-20:00 Mon - Sun) I wonder what's wrong though. The S/N is correct...

Wanna ask something about PSN.
User #1 - My primary PSN ID (Register via PSN Malaysia) User #2 - My secondary PSN ID (Used for downloading demos, registered via PSN US)
Since we are not allowed to change our PSN ID (email) once we create a user in PS3, I create another user using PSN US as I want to download the demos.
The thing is, once the demo is downloaded using the user #2 account, will I be able to play it using user #1?
Also, will I be able to download DLC for a particular game (let's say Naruto) for any region? Let's say I have a Naruto R2 game disc and I want to download the free DLC over PSN US. Can I do so?
Also, my user #2 doesn't have any saved file as it's only an account for downloading demos. Once I download any DLC with it, will I be able to use it on user #1?

I should have created a PSN US account back then. Regretted for creating a PSN Malaysia account with some trophies on it, including RE5 and GTA4. Added on May 21, 2009, 1:31 amQUOTE(msn83235502 @ May 21 2009, 01:19 AM) oh well..it's you. we cant help much. u'd rather pay for lens changing or wipeout ur lazyness.. that's all.u decide. Added on May 21, 2009, 1:24 amok.. some demo are user locked, and some demo is not locked... as far as i remembered, such as warhawk demo, i downloaded using UK PSN, but i'm not able to play with my US PSN. that is one thing. one more thing, DLC for example games u purchased on PSN, IINM, as long as the user is still in ur system, yes u are able to play with other user id. and as for game DLC (add-on and everything) some of it is region locked where if u got R2 disc, u only able to purchase R2 DLC's.. u cant purchase R1 DLC's to use with R2 disc. for example LBP. But when I browse through the PS Store using my US account I can see the Naruto DLC even though I didn't own the game. How does it detect then?

I'm currently using PSN Malaysia ID as my main ID, already have 26 trophies in it. Should I change the main ID to PSN US? Is there anything I'll miss if I continue using the Malaysia ID?
I download those DLC and demos using another ID registered under PSN US, so far 0 trophies as it's not my main ID.
Edit: Whenever I tried to login to PlayStation HOME using Malaysia ID, an error occured. However it does not happened when login using PSN US ID.

Some quick question here: How am I suppose to know whether a disc DLC is for which region? For example, I don't own the Naruto disc but I can download the DLC from PSN US. I don't want to buy a wrong region game end up not being able to download any DLC on it?
Also, is the DLC content for each PS Store is the same?
