TaborJet Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Full 1080p is finally in my house. Picked up Casino Royale, and it looks great. Only thing is, I only have 1 digital input for my receiver, and my HD cable goes into that. So the Blu-Ray is in Pro-Logic II surround, not true Dolby Digital 5.1. Guess my receiver is the weak link now. Also got Call of Duty 3 and MLB 2K7. They look incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECURB Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Fight Night is another game that has incredible graphics... Motorstorm is a lot of fun with great graphics as well... Super rub a-dub is a really fun and addictive game to download from the PS Store.. it uses the sixaxis for all the controls... Make sure you download the latest update too, there is now DVD upscaling and PS1 & PS2 game upscaling... Rainbow Six - Vegas comes out in about a week, they tweaked the game for the PS3... and added some more content not on the 360 version... screen shots look great.

TaborJet Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 Wireless... Have you downloaded the firmware update yet? ecurb, you gotta help me out here. I'm having a hard time just swinging the damn bat in MLB 2K7. I'm so used to playing games on the pc. Never had a console game system since my Sega Genesis back in '91. Wireless? How do I do that? Sounds like I need to get a connection for these updates. How important are the updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know everything else was an extra. Not even 1 game comes with it! Also had to buy an HDMI cable, a second controller, and the titles I mentioned.

war ensemble Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Yes. I didn't know everything else was an extra. Not even 1 game comes with it! Also had to buy an HDMI cable, a second controller, and the titles I mentioned. How do you set up a wireless connection to the PS3? if nothing else works, come back to me and I'll explain how I have my xbox 360 connected wirelessly. All you need is a laptop, a router, and an ethernet cable, but ecurb can probably set you up easier then my way. Also, ecurb, check your pms.

TaborJet Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 I figured it out. I had no idea the PS3 came with a wi-fi connection. I usually research something like this before I buy. Oh well, the PS3 is downloading updates now. The connection isn't the greatest, so I wonder how well the online gaming will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The connection isn't the greatest, so I wonder how well the online gaming will be. so does wi-fi mean it has built-in wireless so it's connecting to your router through that? if so, did you have to enter in any personal stuff or did it find it all (like the ip address). Do you have an open or secure wireless settings. basically, just explain the process to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I had to see what JetNation looked like on the Hi-Def. I guess I'll be getting a wireless keyboard in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wi-fi connection is weak, so it's not nearly as fast as a direct connection. JN looks no different, really. It's a good thing I didn't see any pics of Max or Smizzy on the 50" TV. It would have been a lot closer to real size! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECURB Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 LOL Yeah the 60gb has built in wireless... and Bluetooth for the controllers and if you want you can use a bluetooth headset, keyboard, and mouse... I also have the remote for it that is also bluetooth... war ensemble... that deal you PMed me is a SWEET deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drago Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 The Madden game this year should be sweet.... HD graphics with all the features from the past and a bunch of new ones... have the decided to release it for PS2 or not? i bought the 07 madden, and returned it within two days of purchase. i thought it was the worst madden in years. wayyyy to much offense, i hope they fix that problem on this years game (from what i hear, they have fixed it). i remember half time scores were always 35 to 28 or something just ridiculous. god i hated that game... best madden, the one with ray lewis (vilma's rookie year), i love that game.

Im sure there will be a PS2 version... not sure how much they are changing it though... You can always adjust the difficulty manually and make it very realistic... search goole for some advice. "madden difficulty sliders" or something like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsTaborJet Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 ecurb or anyone.... any "lady-friendly" games out there for PS3? Baseball is cool... I'm really good at hitting, suck at pitching and can't field to save my life. Call of Duty 3 is a bit violent and the gunfire is freakin' the cat out. As far as computer games go, I liked Postal2 - so are there any games like that available on PS? I also loved Return to Castle Wolfenstein, not nearly as violent in my mind as COD3. Anything like that? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'll have to mess around until I get them both to work with digital surround. I don't know about the 1080p vs. 720p comparison, but with my screen size(50") I'm sure 1080p is better.
