i think i remember seeing ads on craigslist where ppl repair ps3's. i'm pretty sure anyone on CL will be cheaper than any store out there...

asia. or you might have some luck in richmond. aberdeen? parker? or any of those little game stores. they might've brought some over, but i haven't seen any myself.

as for those new dynammic themes... they look very cool. gonna look into updating FW =)

btw ... they have a silver ps3 as well. but i think the white one looks the nicest.

yea iv seen that ad on CL
just wanted to see if anyone has brought it anywhere else on this thread that had good results..


anyone know what it means when it doesnt boot and the power button => still red to flash yellow back to flashing red with no screen turning up..

^ yellow light of death, there are tutorials on how to fix it only but there's no guaranteed method yet afaik

hrmmz... sorry i can't be of any help. i've never had any problems with the system so far. but i also don't play it too much either.. maybe thats why. i usually buy a new game ... test it out for about an hour or so ... and then it gets put away lol. its kind of a bad habit of mine. collect a bunch of stuff ... so if i ever do want something to play with ... i know it'll be there hehe.


btw ... does anyone stream movies from their pc onto the ps3 to watch on the tv? is it easy to setup?

^ yes, search up TVersity

so I currently have a ps3 but I'm trading it for a ps3 slim, I was planning to get battlefield 1943 but do I have to buy it again when I get my new ps3? I was also going to get the little big planet theme. Can I reinstall those things on the new ps3 by logging onto my psn account?

pretty sure you lose ur data...unless you take out the HDD...you have to re-buy it.


Anyone know if you can stream .MKV 1080p files? It says data is not supported, I was streaming thru wind mp11....or do you know a good program to convert it?

i think u can back up the data and then transfer it...not 100% sure.

About MKV files, Samsung is coming out with Firmware updates for all their players from BDP 1500 and up that will allow you to play MKV files

people figure it wont be long before PS3 does the same

For people who want to stream media to the ps3 easily and efficiently, use the PS3 Media Server. It's basically a program that was started by a couple of guys and in my opinion kicks the crap out of tversity. The setup is literally like 2 mins. It's supported for Windows (It can be run as a service), Linux and OSX.

Basically run the setup file, and configure your share directory on your computer.

You can even have movie cover art show up on your PS3. In the share directory on your computer lets say you have a Braveheart.mkv file. If you put in a braveheart.jpg you will now from the PS3 XMB see the Movie Cover to the left of the name.

For transcoding bluray files its a good idea to have at least a dual core cpu. I run a dual core 5200 as one of my machines that serves out media to my ps3 and it does a perfect job with no problem.

The program also acts as a file server. From your PS3, you can hit triangle on any of your movie files and save them to your ps3 as well.

It can play any format you want.

my brother went to PAX over the weekend, able to grab alot of free shit

and he gave me a bunch of MAG beta vouchers, cant wait to start playing that next week with buddies.. 256 action!

and no i dont have any more spares

Final Fantasy 13 wil be released on dec 17th!!!!

For Chrtist's sake, it's about time

about fukn time.... so retarded that we had to wait for them to deal with the xbox version first

YES!!

confirmed? i hope so
they always flake out the very last minute

Just be thankful they are not Blizzard

or your grandson will be the one playing FF 13

:haha::haha::haha::haha:


it does takes Blizzard a very long time to develope a game, but hell most of the games they release are a hit

^every single online game they released has been gold. even war2 was awesome but didnt have BNET to launch it into massive success till years after the game got old.

Warcraft 2 was still a hit, regardless of having b.net or not.

29.99 for a B&D heat gun from RONA and my good old probably 8 year old artic silver did the job!!! im soo happy

co worker of mine hooked it up for free and i wanted to try and fix it and it worked whoala!

that game has a very special place in my heart

Yea but they had KALI which was fucking huge
