Riz Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 [ QUOTE ] My PSN tag is SparkyUK This console is great! How do you get the new PS Home running though? I'm on the new firmware. [/ QUOTE ]Whats PS Home? I must admit with just Resistance Fall of Man and the demo`s including GT:HD im very suprised. DVD playback is acceptable too with excellent sound reproduction via Dolby Digital. Not really got stuck into Fall of Man yet. Im running it on my 42" plasma screen on 1080i and its fantastic... not tried 720p yet.... I can run 1080p via component but doubt the difference is noticable on a 42" screen. Launch titles seems ok but nothing really standing out for me at the moment.... Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blu Ray Blackhawk down on my 1080p tv is superb! best blu ray film i have now, although Casino Royale aint bad. Playing Resistance FoM again. Great game, if only 720p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Isn't that post just about Xbox 360 though? I've downloaded lemmings too. A blast from the past! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza_g Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 If you wanted to use the PS3 to store music how do you transfer your mp3 collection to it? Can you plug in an external harddrive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snail Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Anyone tried the photo slideshows yet? A guy at work was showing me the slideshow, where it zooms in and auto of the central people in photos, very clever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I copied a ton from the memory slots at the front but have been told you can use the LAN/WI FI connection. Not sure how yet. The PS3/PSP Remote play is great! Oh, and GTA:SA does play on it. Had it once say it couldn't read the disc but then it just carried on and seemed fine.

[/ QUOTE ] cheers - forgot about the memory card slots For the PS3/PSP remote play, does that mean that you can use your PSP to browse the music stored on the PS3? ....I think my resolve is weakening and I may break soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza_g Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 so when browsing your music on the PS3 from the PSP and you play a track does it come out of the PSP or your hifi (assuming the PS3 is connected to an amp) ? this could swing it for me...... and has anyone tried to watch a movie stored on their PS3 whilst sitting in Starbucks with their PSP ?

Sparky Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 It comes out of your PS3, therefore if connected to an amp, it would come out of that. Treat your PSP as a remote control for it, or like VNC/Remote Desktop on a PC. Music blasting in the lounge, I'm in the kitchen with the PSP, and I could alter what tracks were playing. If you want to hear your MP3's or Video then you need the Sony LocationFree add-on. Which is very good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkzz Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 I have just sold my PS3..lol got bored with the 2 games i had, i will buy another in october when the games i like to play get released.... it would have only sat on the living room floor.

[/ QUOTE ]Ouch that was quick...... I think the titles are slow at the moment... but im happy to keep mine with the few games that ive got until the good ones start coming out! I think that sony really have done the online side of the console pretty well, its got good potential. Cant wait for Home to come out. I bought Tiger Woods 07 and Fight Night 3 yesterday with a Bluray movie (Hitch) I well chuffed with it. Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkzz Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 oh yeah, dont get me wrong, the console is awsome, and i will definalty be getting one, but i am working to paying of debts etc etc atm, and a guy at work said he would give me what i paid for it, so i would rather it sat in the bank for a few months, rather than sitting on the floor not getting much use. I would be playing the PS2 more, so thought the best thing to do was to sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
