Just had a long discussion with the tech support from sony.
Those guys are amazing, very precise and knowledgable compare to some tech supports I've been through.

I suggest if you guys have a problem you can call them directly.

My issue was having some problem with bd games; intermitten crash during loading.

have you tried calling Microsofts? laugh.gif

several forummers here asked my help to call their SG line. To cancel their LIVE subscribtion. They outsourced their callcenters to India..so I had to dribble around to understand thats thick Indian accent laugh.gif

one thing, when ever I play GTA4, the fans start to run faster, producing a loud sound. only GTA4. And its not even a dual layer BD game..unlike MGS4. Anybody experiencing the same thing?or maybe GTA4 is just sucky?

Normal dude.
Its doesn't matter if the Blu-Ray disc is single or dual layered.

It matters on the game itself. GTA4, IS one of the most taxing games on the PS3. The huge world enviroments, the amount of Euphoria physics going around, its immense. So the game really does take a toll on the PS3, the RSX and Cell runs hell alot hotter. Thus, the need for the fan to run faster to cool it down.

Keep your PS3 well ventilated, play in air-conditioned situations if possible.
I only had the fan spin up to unimanginable sounds when I play in a hot sunny afternoon in a room, with a ceiling fan turned on only.

Keep in mind, this just doesn't apply to GTA4.
I've seen it happened on other games as well, and yes that including MGS4 too.

Don't worry too much, keep gaming! icon_rolleyes.gif

BTW snipersnake, I see you on PSN play GTA4, wanna play sometime? brows.gif

guys, one question. any of you use ADDHOC PARTY PSP on PS3...I still remember I can configure my psp using it last year but when I try it now, it doesnt seem to detect my psp like it used to. I did some searching and failed to find anything (as this software is only released in Japan and all) any ideas?

Didn't Yahoo just changed the way you can type on the text editor? As in, its flash based now instead of XML last time. I don't think the PS3 web browser can type on flash-based text editors.

Sony really needs to improve their services outside Japan. Remember PS2 Japan only BB Navigator?

i noticed, when I bout my ps3.,..I cant hear any sounds, means the fan was so quiet. Onmly when I popped GTA4, the fan kicks in overdrive mode, a bit loud, maybe telling me to stop playing and have a life. Usually GTA4.Given by the intensity of it, I understand. But after the latest update, even MGS4 also will result in the fan going nuclear. I read a few forums, some of them had a theory where Sony added a lot of functions on the latest firmwares for PS3, this stresses the PS3 and forcing itself to be cool always. Anybody having the same issue as I am? Nothing serious but the sound really turns my gaming apetite off.

personally for me, its not luck. in fact, there is no such thing as luck in this digital world.

lens are, is a component in the optical drive that faces the issue of wear and tear. The more you use it, the faster it will tear. as simple as that.

Sony's lens (or if you want it more precise, Sanyo's, since they outsource the thing to that company) has always been shoddy since PS1 days. Remember those standing up PSONE remedies, to make it read lens?

Recordable media, should not cause any problems if used on your PS3 if
-the media is made from high quality (not those rm2 dvds)
-its burned in a very low speed. extremely low.
-not scratched what so ever.

Like Lapaq said in other thread, what good is an original DVD when its scratched to Timbuktoo...

i agree with you....but then, i only play ori ps3 games (not that many too, mostly DLC), never ever used any dvd or cd on it, and my blu rays are all ori too..the dark knight i just tore of the wrapper before watching it too...

so i guess i got a bad lens.....

damn.....
