[Definitive] Sony PS3 Thread


Recommended Posts

I too, am a Sony fan. Also an ATI fan, but we can't have everything can we? Sony has better games and more games (I think). While everything concerning the next-gen systems looks fantastic, it was the same way before the current generation of consoles came out. Both, nay, all 3 systems will be great. What will drive the systems will be the games that are released. System excusivity with the games will sell the systems. At least at first.

What I am looking forward to is what Square-Enix will do with the PS3. Final Fantasy XIII anyone?

Im really Looking forward to The Ps3..Hopfully This time sony Made it right with No Issues...Such as the psp dead pixels...and the Ps2 Lens issues. But other then That I have hope that The Ps3 Will be like the Ps1 And have no Problems and be great.

The original psones had lots of problems. For example, they skipped like crazy in certain games and would not display on Zenith TVs. A friend of mine had to send his into sony because it was skipping so badly that it eventually stopped reading the discs or made games unplayable. After he had it "fixed" by sony it was still broken and he had to buy a new psone. I think that early psones had more problems then that but I can't remember them. Oh yeah, wasn't it amusing how some peoples would only run on there side of upside down after a few years?

I never had any of those problems with my PS1 and I played aon a Zenith TV all the time at my cousin's house.

Hey did you guy know that Metal Gear solid 4 will be on the PS3? :D

Sort of like most defects I'm sure it didn't happen with every console, but it did happen to a few of the ones that my friends bought at launch. My PS2 and dreamcast (both of which I bought on launch day) have never had any problems, but that doesn't mean that the first generation models like mine didn't have there fair share of defects.

here is some PS3 news:

Sony Considers 2005 PS3 Release

A company rep hints at the possibility of a release this year.

by Anoop Gantayat

May 12, 2005 - In a surprising twist on the next generation hardware race, a Sony representative has stated that a year 2005 release for the next generation PlayStation is a possibility. Responding to questions from Jiji news service, Sony Chief Financial Officer Takao Yuhara states, "For the year end sales season, simultaneously building up both the PlayStation Portable system in America and Europe as well as the next generation PlayStation is one option that we have."

Most industry speculation calls for a next generation PlayStation release in 2006. Sony's third party developers have backed this assumption up with a strong list of PlayStation 2 titles planned for the rest of the year and early next.

The state of the next generation PlayStation software shown at next week's E3 show should reveal if a 2005 release is a possibility for the new system, or if Yuhara's comments were designed to take some steam out of Microsoft's Xbox 360 unveiling later today.

So I am guessing that is 12:00PM PST. Man I can't wait to see this. I wonder if they are going to release the specs or anything technical about it. I want to see what version of the Cell they will be using and also if they are going to use the Blu-ray/HD-DVD hybrid.

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
