Seems Metal Gear is now going to the 360? We need some 360 games coming our way.

I don't own a PS3 but Ive been thinking about getting one. I have a question however. My TV is High-Def but was out before HDMI. It does support component cables. I know the PS3 upscales DVDs to 1080i but does it upscale without HDMI? Will it upscale using just component cables?

WarEagleAU · Jun 7, 2009

Yes it will though I tell you to me, it looks better with HDMI. Ive used Component with it and it looks really good.

Easy Rhino · Jun 8, 2009

i believe it will upscale to 1080p even with component cables.

hey can you PM me your info and i will add you.

TheMailMan78 · Jun 10, 2009

I just went to the store to buy me a PS3 and found out you have to install some games to play them? Some of them were 5+ gigs! Now is that free space the game uses to load or is that a permanent installation that Ill have to delete later?

Needless to say I didn't buy anything yet.

some of the big games take a lot of space but it isnt an issue really so long as you dont play like 8 games at a time. it keeps the save game files separate though just incase you need to remove a game and install it later. i have the 80 gig and it isnt even close to being an issue.

Thanks. I'm still debating a PS3 or a new CPU. I would like a PS3 but the more I think about it the damn thing sounds like a PC.

A 2.5" laptop drive will run in a PS3. Just get the cheapest model and grab a drive.

kurosagi01 · Jun 10, 2009

i don't own a ps3 but anyone played siren blood curse? its some bloody creepy scary game i have ever seen in my life

my uncle has it on his ps3..so f*cking scaryyyy

WarEagleAU · Jun 11, 2009

inFamous is awesome, thanks to the PS3 club member who put that on their message status, I dl'd it and am in love with it.
Concerning the PS3 HDD upgrade, it is extremely easy, eventually I will do it but I haven't even gotten 20gigs on my PS3 used so.

RevengE · Jun 12, 2009

I just got my Ps3 working again today. I called sony support and they told me how to reformat it, I had tried it before and it didnt work, they gave me some complex way of doing it and it ended up working.

It's actually very easy.

- Get a 2.5" laptop drive

- Sync your trophies to the PSN server (they will not be backed up in the next step).

- Backup your data using the built in backup utility (Settings -> System Settings -> Backup Utility). I'd recommend an external USB drive, unless you have a flash drive with enough storage to hold all your data.

- Shut down the PS3.

- Remove the old drive and install the new drive (PICS).

- Restart the the console; make sure your removable media is plugged in, browse to the restore utility (Settings -> System Settings -> Restore OS) and select restore

For me, the whole process took < 2 hours. The hardware swap took about 5 minutes, most of the time was spent doing the backup and restore. I didn't lose any data. Go for it! :toast:

What do you mean? Swapping the drive is easy. It's user serviceable.
