Will FFVII etc make an inevitable appearance on the classics section do you think?

I really hope so as I've never properly played 7-9

I wouldn't be holding out much hope for multi-disc games in the near future. And I think Square would probably rather tart up and re-release 7-9 for near full price rather than let them go for £3.49.

But I could be wrong. (Cue someone telling me there's already a two-disc game available on the Japanese store, or something.)

Someone asked Square a while back about downloadable versions of their good games (SoM, FFVII et al). They basically said they were still making enough/more money selling the physical versions. So yes, chances are slim.

They've fixed that problem.

Nah? How many MB/GB would a FF7 be? sure not more than say 2GB?

Well, the absolute maximum it could potentially be is 740mbx3=2220mb.

Edit: Some research says ISOs for FF7 under .rar compression come to 481 MB, 473 MB and 420 MB respectively. 1.374 GB=1374MB.

But don't the discs have a lot of the FMV and stuff duplicated on each disc? I assume they can do without the duplication for any possible PSN download, making it much smaller.

I think it rips to 1.4gb if you want to put it on a PSP. Course, if they have their own compression techniques

Don't want to step any boundaries posting links to torrents but they're straight PSX disk rips, compressed with Winrar.

I'm a technomong but I'd imagine they could take any repeated bits of music/game engine/fmv out and cut a fair bit out?

Just received my Logic 3 Memory Card Converter, so I'm finally able to continue my GT4 and GTA:SA saves on my PS3, as a nice preparation for 5 and IV respectively.

Though I just gave GT3 a spin just for fun, which looks pretty damn amazing on a Full HD TV :) Sure, it's no GTHD / GT5 Prologue, but it doesn't just need more polygons to look good. Especially for a nearly seven year old game.

We've received multiple tips from readers—ones who also happen to be Best Buy employees—who have informed us that the North American retailer hasn't received stock of the PlayStation 3 80GB model for the many weeks and is expected to discontinue carrying the model soon. According to our sources, Best Buy stores have also been asked to pull advertising materials related to the 80GB model, currently the only version that features PlayStation 2 backwards compatibility.

Rumors of a 120GB model have been spread to retail employees, but this conflicts with reports from other Best Buy moles who say that internal communications indicate only one model—the 40GB barebones edition—will be stocked after January 28th.

PS3 Fanboy has visual evidence of the notice to employees about the 80GB discontinuation, further proof that backwards compatibility may soon be a thing of the past. We've been bugging Sony about the situation all day, but have yet to receive anything other than a paraphrased "hold tight" about the rumors.

Update: It appears as though it's finally out. The 80GB model isn't showing on Best Buy's site.

You changed any of the setting mate, hdmi full etc as alot of people change those without there tv really supporting it and it leads to crushed blacks and shadow loss.

Yup I have FULL HDMI, will see if changing it makes a difference tonight. Thanks.

Question. Can I go onto someone elses PS3. Then access the us store by putting in my user and password that I use on my own ps3 for the us store?

Yeah having FULL HDMI can cause over blackness especially with EA games. Looks a bit better now I've turned it off.

Just bought a logitech chat headset. I can't hear anything in the earpiece though (was playing burnout). My mic seemed to be working because the icon flashed when I spoke. I even tried putting on normal headphones and when others spoke online I could hardly hear them even after turning music down to 0. Are these problems normal? Any decnt way to test these things?
