General PS3 Q&A

[Mr. Crow]

But if somebody can clarify that, oh... say... this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16879555002 headset would work with my PS3, i would greatly appreciate it.

That's the headset that comes with Warhawk, least I'm pretty sure on it. It's only 25 dollars on amazon, about the same price if you were to buy warhawk with headset.

About Assassin's Creed, lets hope Ubisoft doesn't delay that game for PS3, just have feelings they will since they were having problems with both consoles at the moment. Think the problem for 360 was with disc space and with PS3 it was the memory, I'm hoping both problems were resolved since this game is looking awesome. Think I might have the mom and dad buy it for me for Christmas though, unless Haze bombs, but Uncharted looks so good. November is looking so good for both consoles, I never follow up on Wii but I think Super Mario Galaxy is coming out though.

Errr $370, my fault.

When I had bought this 20gb mp3 player from Amazon last year (which got stole n ) my dad signed up for their credit card and they gave us $30 off the purchase, so thats how it would save the money.


Sorry, I typed that post after having to work the 3rd straight 9-hour day...not particularly on top of my typing game at the moment =\

Is Jabra better than Motorola?


PS - can a mod or admin change the title of this thread to something like General PS3 Q & A?

dont remember what i heard:

does the ps3 come with old school AV cables (Red, white, and yellow) for us with old school tv's or do i have to buy that separately?

Yes, it comes with the R/W/Y cables

yes it does

[MondayHopscotch]

cool, that makes things a little bit better...

but Army of 2 got delayed. I hope the same doesnt apply for Assassin's Creed or I'm not getting a PS3 till probably around new year's.


Just wondering: Is there much of a homebrew scene on the PS3? Havent heard much on the subject.

[Mr. Crow]

I got a feeling Assassin's Creed is gonna get delayed. Check out www.ps3-hacks.com/ for any homebrew for ps3. But there isn't much yet. According to legend Pardox or someone has a ISO Loader for PS3 but is hiding it like drugs from your parents. Hope it actually is true and releases here someday, then I'll have a reason to upgrade my HDD.

If you want, you can install linux and have a few emulators on your PS3. I've never done it so I don't know how to get blue tooth and all that working for the PS3 controller, but I'm sure you can ask around somewhere or at least google it. Oh yeah, you have to use emulators for the PPC arch. So it really limits what you can do, sadly.

Sounds pretty cool being as its still in the early stages, I'll probably wait a while before i get into that stuff, but eventually i probably will.

An Iso loader would be pretty nifty

It surprises me that not much has been in development for PS3 linux. When a mainstream system comes out with the ability to play homebrew natively, no one does any work on it.

[Borman]

The problem is that Sony restricted access to the graphics processor, so while the Cell is relatively open, its hard to produce graphics of any quality when you cant use the GPU

[Josh]

I know that, but I mean, I don't even hear about anything related to something like SNES emulation

[Mr. Crow]

Well snes9x works for sure, and I've hear fceultra works. I don't have a usb keyboard though so I haven't test out ps3 linux yet. Plus I'm kind of scared about what kboot will look like
