Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

I've only heard my fan run once and that was after the thing was on for a good two days running a game in a very warm room. Besides that Its been in better locale and the fan has not kicked on, its so very quiet and is nice as I don't disturb my parents when playing it at night where as my 360 was nuisance.

P.S. I am still very grateful that I did the 360 for PS3 move.

I had my fan run more when it wasn't as ventilated in the area of my entertainment center. I ripped out the fake back stuff to allow airflow and it helped shut the fan up more. Now it'll only happen more if my room is just warmer.

Sony saying no price drops this year but you never know. They might drop a bomb on everyone.

But if no price drop this year, I'd say late winter 09 or spring 09.

Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

K, here's my situation:

PS3, haven't played online yet.

I have a Mac laptop computer, and Wireless internet throughout my house..only problem is in my basement (where PS3 is) I have 7% internet. yikes.

I get a connection error, because I have everything right, except for getting that quick connection.

Do I need a router, and if so, what kind?

I, myself have a Westell router, but for gaming most people on this site seem to like wireless Linksys routers.

Firmware 2.50 coming soon.

Support for the PS3 Official Bluetooth Headset - we've told you about the upcoming Bluetooth Headset and SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation Bundle on the Blog. This latest firmware installment enables High-Quality (HQ) mode, which delivers clear and wide-band online voice chat. On top of that, an added on-screen indicator shows battery status, volume level and use of HQ mode.
PlayStation Trophies interface enhancements - I know that many of you are busy collecting trophies and raising your PlayStation Trophy level. This update makes sharing and comparing your trophies with your friends even easier. On 1st part of the profile page you'll see a symbol under level that represents level and the actual percentage towards the next level along with the existing level meter. The level symbol carries over to the trophy comparison screen where you will now be able to see your level, your friend's level and the percentage towards the next level for both users along with all of the game by game comparison information you see today.
Friend status – Offline friends on your Friends list will have information below their avatars that will indicate how long it has been since they were last online.
Video – This update adds the Scene Search feature similar to the feature on the PSP. Activating this feature while viewing a video on the PS3 will break the video up into scenes that you can quickly access by pressing the X button. You can break the videos into one, two or five minute intervals. In addition, you can now choose to have all of the videos under the video section of the XMB play in sequence. Go to Settings then Video Settings to turn this option on.
PlayStation Store – We've added a redeem codes option right on the store to make it easier to redeem your PlayStation Network Cards and promotion codes. In addition, PlayStation Network Sign Up and Account Management have been redesigned.
Power Save Settings – You can now set your PS3 and wireless controllers to turn off automatically after set periods of inactivity. Go to Settings then Power Save Settings to turn on these features.
Background Downloading - You now have the option to set the PS3 to turn off automatically after a background download or installation of content has completed. This option is available when you turn off the system from the button under [Users] while content is being downloaded or installed.
In-game Screenshots - this tool will allow everyone to capture, share and in other words, immortalize their favorite gameplay moments. This will be supported on a game by game basis. Please check back to find out which games will support this feature.

Lots of good features. And finally, auto-shutdown after downloads! I hated not being able to leave the PS3 on so that it can finish downloading something knowing that if I'm gone for a long period of time, I'd be wasting electricity and money.

Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

I'm so upset right now that I hear all the 360 sports games look that much better then the PS3.

Trust me they don't. NBA looks marginally better while everything else looks pretty much the same.
