So picked up my PS3 couple days ago, i have total of 4 games.
So far i have experienced 2 times with the Ridge Racer 7..than when i load it up the game..
it will have the Ridge racer music/sound at the begining of the main page once its inside the game not at the PS3 menu interface. I hear the music..blah blah but no screen!! like absolutely nth..just pitch black
And i will have to reset my PS3 and it works fine.
Now my question is this the game itself tats having this trouble? or my PS3?
because all my other games did not encounter this problem, only when i tried to load up the Ridge racer 7
Im thinking taking my RR7 into the store i purchased and tell them to give me a new one??
Suggestions??

Try reading the instruction manual for both systems. I had problems doing updates with the Wii and PS3.
The Wii's manual recommends Channel 1 or 11 for your Wifi router. The default on my Linksys is 6. I switched to 1 and the Wii and PS3 works fine, but my sister's wifi card on her computer didn't work. So I tried 11 and all is well.

true true...fight night round 3 has almost been out as soon as 360 got introduced to the market.
But because whether its FNR3 on the 360 or ps3..they both do have decent graphics..as well as good ratings to back it up.  | |

Any game that is out for more than one system will be better on the XBOX 360 for the next few years. That is the main console developers are using, and from there they port over to PS3 and Wii.

what programs do you guys use to convert video files on the comp so that the ps3 can play it?
I'm wondering that on both the PC and Mac side

Best to leave the content as-is though. If you download pure HDTV streams, the PS3 will play it without conversion! Very cool | |

for some reason when i put in my usb flash, the ps3 detects it but doesnt detect the mp4 files i put on it.
any ideas what could be wrong? when i transfer the file wirelessly it can view it. But I don't want to go that route since I have a wireless B connection so its slow.
any ideas as to why it cant detect my video files?

You need to use a certain directory format for the PS3 to read properly. I don't know about music, but for video, it has to be in root/VIDEO/file and the file name cannot have spaces.
Furthermore, the drive must be formatted as FAT32 or FAT; the PS3 cannot read NTFS partitions.

Or go to the partition properties (My Computer > right click on the drive, go to Properties), it should say there.

Can't blame them for it this time; NTFS is a Windows file system, only intended for Windows products.
