A thread for PS3 owners Here

[Sng]

Well yeah, but even with fees it's still something like £36, which is more than I paid for it.

[Chooch]

WOOT!

[Sng]

Ok, COD4 at 9pm tonight? Whp is up for that. And no game can be launched until at least 4 of us are in the lobby!

[Yasawas]

My CoDs still not here . And I know full well they're sitting on a pile of my mail at the depot just drip feeding it to me because they can't be fucked carrying it all in one go. I've got about half a dozen PS1 games, Ikaruga GC, CoD and Gran Turismo Prologue coming, this could take ages. Arseholes.

I'll add some more of you in the meantime anyway, hopefully see you on with it tomorrow. With my scopeless M16 and shite perks.

I should be on at that time

[Harry]

I should be on at that time

Me too, who's hosting? As my connection is wank, 2MB.

[Sng]

My connection's not too great for hosting. Who else is playing? Coooome on.

[Sng]

Damnit! I'm gonna be late on. I forgot to have dinner and there's nothing in the house so I'm popping out for fish and chips. Won't be long.

[Harry]

When the lobby starts, someone invite me please

[Sng]

They had no cod left. I'm stuck with two battered sausages. Man-alive it's just salt and batter.

[Bluejam]

When the lobby starts, someone invite me please

Im on in a sec Harry, just added you on my friends list if thats ok!

[Sng]

I'm heading in now, can I get an invite when someone gets a sec? Cheers!

[Bluejam]

come on peeps!

FOBT?

[Spacehost]

Sorry, I've got words to write tonight.

[Harry]

Not bad game, even if it was only the 3 of us

[Bluejam]

i was getting caned! Those yanks had me in bits, like a poor mans version of "Shooter"

"Take the Shot" and such like.

Must practice more!

If I got a retail version of Warhawk, do I need the disc? What I mean is does it install and run off the HDD?

Don't think so... anyone?

[Uzi]

You need the disc in as like a normal game.

[moosegrinder]

So I may as well just just download it for £20. I wouldn't have voice coms though...unless USB headsets work regardless?

[Spacehost]

Yep. Any old USB or BlueTooth headset will work on PS3. Remember though that you can only play DLed Warhawk on the account that downloaded it and only when you've got a web connection to the PSN.

[moosegrinder]

Aaah, reet. That's not too much grief (it's always connected) but I like the physicality of discs. Unless Gaystation have one in tomorrow it'll have to wait.

At least when I do get it you'll be able to hear my beautiful yorkshire timbre.

[Sng]

Don't forget it's an online game so the internet connection is kinda required anyway...

[Harry]

There are positives and negatives with both versions, the positives of the download version:

* No need for the disc

* Start straight from menu

Negatives:

* You can only play the downloaded version from the account you bought it on, so if you have other people playing the PS3, they will have to use your account and mess up your stats and rank etc...

The positives with the retail version:

* Not much more expensive

* Box & manual

* Included headset

Negatives:

* Need disc to play

* Have to install data to HDD regardless

I bought the download.

[moosegrinder]

Right. Ok then. I have another nub question...how do you sync a pad to the PS3? My first pad ran out of juice so I plugged it in. I wanted to use my second pad but it just kept flickering all 4 lights. Someone's going to tell me you can't use a pad while ones charging, aren't they?

If it's never been used on your system before, plug it in first. Then un plug it and it should sync up.

[moosegrinder]

Aaaaaaah! The only thing I didn't do! Brilliant, cheers.

[boxoctosis]

I put this in ATF, but no reply - someone care to recommend me a wireless router (not Linksys) that works fine with the PS3 - my mate's Linksys decided not to work recently, and after extensive tests we worked out it's his dodgy router that's the problem. So - if you use wireless for the PS3, what router do you have?

[Sng]

Mine's a D-Link DSL-G604T ADSL router that works fine wirelessly with PS3. It's quite old now though, probably a newer one available.

I have the Netgear DG834GT. Wunderbar.
