I have a couple questions....anyone know if you can play back movie files on PS3 using those usb flash drives?

And does anyone know a way to use a keyboard/mouse for gaming? FPS really suck without them.

I'm not sure if you can just connect your pc keyboard and mouse to play fps. I could be wrong though as I just got my PS3. However, another solution is the following which according to reviews is actually pretty decent.

not necessary, right? any folder is fine. Just have to press "O" with options on the drive or folder and then "Show All files" and it should show all videos.

Cman333, most of the videos plays fine including TS HighDef files but not mkv files and no rm/rmvb. Most of my Divx plays fine too.

No it's not absolutely necessary, but if you do it the video files will show up when you select the drive under the Video column instead of having to go through a bunch of menus every time you want to watch a video on that drive.

This might be a stupid question. I went looking for PS3 accessories but didn't see any headsets avaliable. Do I just use a normal cellphone BT headset?

don't buy initial D... it sucks

no online outside of japan (even if you purchased jap version), shitty controls (its like your car is on ice at all times, but i guess thats the same as Initial D Arcade), long load time, short game play.

only thing good about it, its that about 2/3 the price of other PS3 games...

DBZ Burst is fun, although the story mode is weak (they could have done so much better)

finding an online battle takes about 1 second

and the graphics put the cartoon to shame
