yeah I had a D-Link that would drop my PS3 all the time. I got a airport extreme and it works flawlessly

so, my PS3 just got the YLOD for a second time. i guess it's time to get a slim :)
on the same topic, i was just looking at the wikipedia entries for ps3 and xbox 360...
the YLoD occurs on .5% of PS3s.
the RRoD occurs on 68% of xbox 360s!

so i just ordered a new 120gb slim and was planning on swapping out the HDD with the 500gb 2.5" SATA from my previous PS3 into it.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product…also picked up this 2.5" HDD enclosure, with the idea that i'd just pop the 120gb drive the slim comes with in there and use it to store porn or whatever on my mac.
have any of you tried this? it should work, right?

Anyone excited about Brink? I've packed up my PS3 until this comes out. Packed up due to my MW2 addiction.

My 'Significant Other' gave me a ps3 a couple of days ago.
Much appreciated but I rarely play. Very out of touch with these things.Anyways, can you guys recommend a good 2 player game?
Not online but games to be played at home, with someone like the mentioned Significant Other.She's into shooting heads of zombies but would settle for anything fun. Fun enough. She got me/us/her Biohazard/Resident Evil 5 but we're almost done with it.
- Skate II, Modnation Racers, FIFA are all games I share with my lady... Thinkin' about Red Dead Redemption...ideaist
- Little Big Planet is a good game to play co-op if she's into girly games. Rock Band is another.Gucci
- Again... only if she's into fun kiddie style games. Seems you've already run the gamut of Zombie killers.Gucci

Well I only had my lunch break to check it out quickly. All good so far (obviously – like anyone is expecting it to be rubbish). I tried the single player campaign and that is full on action right from the word go, and the cutscenes are pretty hot too – if you care about the story.
I tried the online VERY quickly and just had a quick round of the Combat Training (the one where you play against bots as if it is online). That was cool. It actually uses your online buddies' names as your team mates and opponents so it's like your playing with them but you aren't. I imagine it'll be a good introduction to the maps before you actually go online and get your arse handed to you by a 10 year old.
So yeah, it's rocks but then we knew that :)

second instance i know of of militaries using playstations. back in the day iraq was taking apart ps2s and using the processors to pilot missiles because they could be imported as toys instead of computers, which were heavily regulated

My three years old PS3 just did a YLOD..
Now i'm wondering, is there a "secret" way to get the saves that are on my old hdd ? I only have some old backups..
Google says it's impossible because each hdd is encrypted by it's own PS3 and in is own way so the hdd in your console can only be read by that console.
Sucks cause Sony can't even encrypt players personal data, but when is comes to the consoles hdds contents, there would be absolutely no way to get it.Atleast the price of the PS3 just dropped a little.
- man....i feel your pain, my 60gb died last year, got a slim now!cruddlebub

I still have the original PS3 and use it mostly for streaming movies, the problem is is the fan is so freakin loud I have to turn up the volume of the movie to drown out the fan noise. I considered getting a Slim but I heard they used the same fan and was just as loud. I wonder if the new Super Slim will be quitter..

I can't stop playing Max Payne 3 online, until GTA5 comes out... although it's got some very angry, VERY abusive players that make me glad for the mute button. I like to kill them in the face.
