I have a question.Bascially, last night I went out of my game, and the PS3 just froze.There's no other way(at least on my ps3 lol) to turn it completely off than unplugging it from the electricity(i have a button for that, so I don't ACTUALLY do it).So basically, when I tried to turn it on, I could hear it starting to run (fans and stuff) but then it just turned off.Then, me being worried about the CD, I quickly turned it on and pressed the button.Then bam, it magically works.Should I be worried?I mean, it works now but still...
[QUOTE=ItchyBarracuda;32706090]There's been a lot of complaints around the net about it too. There's even video comparisons of how the balance/grip has been nerfed compared to the original release.[/QUOTE]
if you say so
[QUOTE=Craftsman;32729139]Going to get Dark Souls, MGS4, FF13 and Enslaved later this month. Anyone know any other games that are worth picking up?
I got both Uncharted games, God of War, Demon's Souls, RDR and LBP.[/QUOTE]
Heavy Rain and I'm pretty sure Uncharted 3 will be amazing. Also buy Heavy Rain used, the CEO of Quantum Dream is a dick.
Add me to the list.

The Uncharted series is considered the best exclusive action series the PS3 has.
I kind of like the Resistance series, Resistance one is like a weird hybrid of old FPS, R2 is a bit shit gameplay wise, but is still fun, and R3 I have no idea about yet.
Metal Gear Solid 4 if you like that kind of gameplay (and the storytelling)
I don't know about them myself, but apparently the Ratchet and Clank Future series is quite good for jumpy shooty third person action platforming.
Most PS3 exclusive games are usually very good.
Is Castlevania: HoD a mordern 2D Castlevania game (with character progression, etc.) or is it more of an arcade game?

I would backup my saves to a USB or something if I were you.

Just picked up the Ico and Shadow of the Colossus collection for $25 new. I've never played these two games before, but i've heard good things.
[QUOTE=Kirby106;32785186]Just picked up the Ico and Shadow of the Colossus collection for $25 new. I've never played these two games before, but i've heard good things.[/QUOTE] Thinking about picking that up later as well.
Where did you get it for $25?
Any good PSN games for under $15?

Castle Crashers is amazing especially with friends.
Castlevania HoD is brilliant. I've stayed up to 5 am two nights in a row playing it.
just got a ps3
my psn name is GeneralMordin
I've got the YLOD now. I left the ps3 off for a week or two after it started turning itself off when I tried to play GTA. Today I turned it on and it didn't even get to the XMB before it beeped and the yellow light turned on. I had already planned to buy a new PS3 and am going to get one tomorrow, is there anyway to get the saves and stuff from the old one to the new one? Even if it means doing something to the old PS3 that will void its warranty, just so that it will be able to stay on for an hour or so.

if you're going to get a new one, take it apart and put it in the oven - it'll work again, albeit temporarily
mine worked for another 5 months after I put it in the oven
I used this [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_Ic1_TY-GU]video[/url]
except I didn't have a heat gun, so I preheated the oven to 425 degrees, put the board on an aluminum tray, bake for 10 minutes, wait for it to cool, and put it back together

oh yeah have some thermal paste handy
the thought of taking apart your ps3 and putting it in your oven sounds insane
and highly unsafe

it's a crude way of re-joining connections if I remember correctly
that's why it's only temporary fix - done it 2 times so far myself before I got another one

What worked for me was to put it upside down and blow into the back of it with a hair dryer for like 15 minutes and then let it cool for 30 minutes or so. Worked for me and I managed to get the saves onto a USB.
Where is my Castlevania DLC? >:(

Keep your pants on, it's coming.
Tried NFS The run demo..
oh wow it's really terrible, NFS just gets worse and worse.

I know the previous NFS games had quite strict races, but they had some variation because of the free roam and messing with cops. These new games (Hot Pursuit and The Run) are just racing through a straight line. What makes it worse is the fact that all races seem to take place on highways. Not to worry, it's not all a straight line, they curve too.

The last good NFS i know is Carbon.
Well anyways, someone buying Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One?
30 minutes with a hairdryer later and my temporarily fixed old 40GB PS3 is connected to my new 160GB slim PS3 with an ethernet cable and they're making sweet sweet data transferance. Arkham City came today as well so I'm really excited. Hopefully the old PS3 can stay on for 13 more minutes.
