    gt5

    I had that problem the first time I played, so I quit game then checked the date and time settings, everything was ok, but I set date and time via internet just to make sure, I started the game up again and there was no problem. This seems to work for everyone - good luck!

    Movies and TV shows coming to PS3?

    I would only be for this if the movies were not compressed. What is the point of downloading a compressed blu-ray movie? If they charge me a few bucks extra on my Netflix account - I would do it. See which path this takes......

    PS3 Black Screen

    About once a month - when I turn on my PS3 - I get nothing but a black screen. If I unplug/plug the power cord - it fixes itself. Any idea what might be causing this?

    Burnout Paradise City - Special Car Codes

    These are not cheat codes - they unlock cars that you can't win during the game. Sort of like easter eggs on a dvd.

    Burnout - Paradise City

    Has anyone else been playing this? I enjoy for the simple fact that the entire city is open to drive and you can play at your own leisure. The game play is smooth and the graphics are great. I am not an advanced gamer so maybe that is why I like the game so much. Can't wait for GT5 - though!

    Wii for a 6 year old?

    My four year beats up my eight year old in boxing so there should be no issue with a 6 year old. The system was designed for really young and really old people. By know means is that an insult - just most people who love it are generally not true hardcore gamers.

    PS3 worth buying?

    oh - and where do you live? Here in the northeast you can get a free hdtv if you sign up for FIOS. Might be something to look into? Not some 61" - but a good starting point.

    PS3 worth buying?

    Not negative - fact is the Playstation Network does not even compare to XBL. Free or not. For once - Microsoft did something right. Anyone that has used both cannot disagree. XBL offers more content and a better interface. That is what Microsoft does - develop software. There interface...

    PS3 worth buying?

    GT5 is going to rock. I can't wait for that to come out. I just picked up Burnout/ Pardise - and that is loads of fun. Also - if you want backwards compatibility - get the 80G. You get a free game and twice the harddrive for $100 more. If the price does drop - now you are the cost of what...

    PS3 worth buying?

    Yeah - why buy a PS3 if you don't have an HDTV? You buy the PS3 for the better quality (image)games - but if you don't have the correct equipment to play on - you negate that. Lack of games - does it matter? How many games can you play at one time? The xbox has a ton of games - but I...

    Just ask one of the associates when they get there shipments in. Usually on Tuesday for most of the stores in my area. Get there as soon as they open and you will be able to get one. They might only get a few in - but if you are the first there - you are golden. My friend does this at...

    PS3 DVD-Audio Playback

    If you get the latest firmware - the PS3 will upconvert standard dvd's. Here is clip discussing the process: Before yesterday's firmware update, the PlayStation 3 couldn't upscale standard-definition DVDs to high-def resolutions--a once high-end feature that's now built-in to nearly all...
