Mine is working flawlessly

[Shoco]

i have it sussed, my modem is at one end of the house and the ps3 is at the other, if i leave it sitting in the middle of the siffing room floor i can pick upa signal, but if i move it back beside the tv i lose the signal

that really bugs me because my optical lead wont go that far

[anythinggoes]

Yeah i was havin some issues with that i kept on losin a signal while playin online so it crashed my out so it seems the reciever in the ps3 is not too great, i also connected it to my psp with wireless but was disappointed to find it wouldnt allow to play the games only use the menu

[Shoco]

mines ok once connected, once theres a date stream its fine, itd getting connected in the first place that causes me problems

wonder would a seperate wireless adopter work??

I got my PS3 last friday.

I haven't really got the time to play it that much yet though, but what I have played is amazing.

Motorstorm feels extremley next-gen, the animations in the game are pretty much out of this world and the control feels really "in real life-ish", almost a little too much, because the steering gets a little too hard at times, especially in deep turns, when you out-of-nowhere is crashing into a big ass mountain and boom, you're last out of the fifteen riders again.

Not that fun, luckily, it doesn't happen very often.

The second game I've played is Def Jam: Icon, which is the game I've been playing the most out of these two games.

Icon is an amazing fighting game, and I've never actually played a Def Jam title before, so I'm new the this type of music/fighting genre.

To see these buildings blow-up before your eyes when you time a perfect punch into someones face and knock some of their teeths out, it's simply amazing.

As I stated, I haven't really played none of the games that much, but I can tell that they're both amazing games, and I will continue the playing soon, I will also connect it to the internet, which is what I'm probably looking forward to the most.

I also got the time to test the Blu-ray feature that Playstation 3 offers, and it was very, very good.

That's it for now.

(PS. From what I've heard the picture looks SWEET if you hook it up on your LCD-computer monitor with a HDMI-cable that you're putting into a DVI-adapter.)

gonna be a great night for the PS3. Metal Gear Solid 4 midnight release tonight  good thing gamestop is in the corner of my house and i dont have to go camp out at some other gamestop to get this game

[Shoco]

does that mean the dualshock is been released too?

[pilferk]

does that mean the dualshock is been released too?

Yeah, a couple months back...about 2 weeks before the Gran Tourismo 5 Prologue "demo" came out.

[Shoco]

not in europe theyr not, but i think i read somewhere they were being bundled with MGS on its release

Ahhh, gotcha.

I forget how international the board population is, sometimes.

In the states, like I said, we got em back just about a week or two before GT 5 Prologue hit....

In looking at amazon uk, I don't see any mention of it being bundled with a dualshock...

I also don't see the dualshocks available for sale via any of the euro gamer sites, yet (or maybe they're just sold out).

So I don't know....

Edit: The only mention of bundling I see concerns the MGS 4 "Red" 80GB PS3 bundle here in the states....which comes with a Dualshock 3.

[w.axl.rose]

yeah man the rumble has been available for a few months now. i got mine a couple of months before we got them here in the US, i have 1 white one and black one. MGS4 does support rumble.

that must be what iv read

iv gad a look round and have ordered an imported one

[Shoco]

^^ i arrived today, that was quick 

[The Chad Cometh]

So what happened to the Sixaxis? Sony fanboys were touting it as the ultimate controller and attacking XBox fans because of their lack of motion sensitivity. I believe rumble was even dismissed by Sony execs at one point as pointless.

[Shoco]

i love the 6axis, its a good laugh playing racing games
