  • Vivek replied to the topic Noisy PS3's in the PlayStation 3 board.
    So in this weeks Bombcast, there was an email from a user about their PS3 becoming extremely noisy and its something that until now I thought I was alone in having. I currently have two PS3's a 40GB which after a year of use, and getting a little dusty, started to sound like a hair dryer when having to work hard. I gave that console to my brother who doesn't mind the ...

  • For a saving of 60 GBP (97 USD) I might aswell save myself the hassel and get a UK model. Plus as Diamond said that at least I can buy local region Blurays.  When im in Florida ill just stock up on games :)

  • You have to fill out paper work when you send your PS3 off, put the note on there and take a copy for safe keeping.

  • @Diamond said: " Power systems are different, it'll destroy your PS3 and maybe even start a fire or hurt someone.  Always be careful about that, people have died that way (seriously).  edit - I should add it probably won't even plug in, different power outlets.  However, I've heard of stories with compatible plugs but uncompatable power.  Some kid in Europe went from one country to another with his DS, when ...

  • So I'm heading stateside begining of September, and have worked out that a US PS3 would cost me 190 GBP compared to 250 GBP if I were to purchase one here in the UK. That 60 GBP which could buy me a game and a spare controller.  So my Question is will a US PS3 work in the UK, power wise and network wise?  Just to make clear im talking SPECIFICALLY about ...

  • Can you access your game save file on the XB360?
    3 months, 2 weeks ago
  • @natetodamax: It can be done on the PS3 because you can access your game saves.  @Akeldama: There are at least one in each game I play. Just watch for the guy on the radar that manages to get from one side of the map to the other  Also the other day some guy managed to hack the game so that everyone entered a kind of debug mode where you could fly around the "Creak".

  • I have reached to the end of my teather with this. In the past two weeks the number of hackers on the playstation 3 version of COD4 has gone through the roof. I mean like every game there will someone zipping around and killing you from under the map, through level walls and from the top of buildings that are unreachable. Has anyone else witnessed this?  The sad thing is that ...

UFC and Me

Don't worry I'm not mad, not yet anyway. I recently downloaded UFC Undisputed via PSN store, and wow. Yukes in the past have been great at fighting games, but ever since the churning out of the WWE series I was slightly worried about the game. Im not generally a UFC or Pride fan. I enjoy the odd bit of boxing and even tried a bit of Jui Juitsu in my spare time, but somehow this game gets me all excited.

Core Elements

Firstly the game looks lush the graphics are outstanding and detailed, from blood splattering on the body to the detail and authenticity of the Octagan itself. The controls are spread nicely over the controller and I always find myself never stressed out to hit the right button, in a way it flows. The best part of the game for me though has to be the amazing comentary. No other game comes close to the depth and accuracy that UFC:D has in this department. The timing and conversational banter between the commentators, truely adds to the polished feel the game has.

Grab and Go

I cant wait for it to hit shelves so that my mates and I can start trashing the crap out of each other, in a safe virtually environment. This is a must for UFC fans but also one to watch for anyone that enjoys a great tactial fighter.

SCORE 9/10

Great work guys after months of waiting were here. The only issues at the moment is the speed but I guess that that will come with time. Looks nice and easy to use.
