EWB's Best Poster. Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 If youve got an upgraded HD in your ps3, DO NOT DO THE UPDATE. Play offline. Its got a code error and is "bricking" (temporarily at least) those that have hd upgrades of 500gb or more. So don't do it for a few hours until that shits sorted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crybaby Bunting Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Sony have since pulled the update so it must be a pretty widespread problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baddar Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 That's for EU I think, so yep, that applies to us. I think I might have to re subscribe. Didn't finish SR3 on 360, and I'd like to try Battlefield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ellis Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Already beat SR3 on 360 so probably wont be replaying it unless I get a huge urge ahead of 4 but I don't want to risk burnout ahead of both 4 and GTA 5. Might be up for some shootings on either BF3 or Payday though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LL! Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Ellis, get BF3 so we can play together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ellis Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I more than likely will unless it's eleventy bajillion GB's. And I assume I will suck at it like CoD, rather than be mildly competent like Halo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summers Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Awesome. Payday good? Never played SR. Is 3 good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ellis Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Personally, I didn't like SR3 as much as 2 but if it's your first one then you shouldn't have such issues. As cliche as it is to say, it's like GTA but just way, way over the top with all manner of crazy missions, side quests, weapons etc etc. Plus, online story co-op. Payday I don't know too much about. I think it drew comparisons to Left 4 Dead since it has similiar co-opy FPS gameplay where you're part of a group of 4 people but you're out to rob banks rather than kill zombies.

Your Mom Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Beyond is like $35 at the Sony store right now. Pretty sure I'll preorder for that price Ok nevermind it's dead already I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenged Probably Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 After buying my friend's PS3 a few months back I finally gave in and got PS+ Only played Demon Souls so far, and I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKz Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 My only problem with Beyond is that apparently it's pretty much the same gameplay as Heavy Rain... which I was really fucking bored by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZJ Penn Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Heavy Rain is one of those games thats an absolute blast for my first playthrough...then I never touch again. I'd buy a sequel/something similar after it dropped to £25/£30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKz Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I couldn't get through it myself, the gameplay bored me to tears. I experienced it through Mrs. TKz playing it. I mean, the story was pretty good, but holy shit, that's not a game I could "play" myself for however many hours it was. For comparsion, I got bored of Uncharted 3 for holding my hand too much and not giving me enough control over my character. So you can imagine how much this bothered me.

Liam Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Can the PS3 play .mkv files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKz Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 It can and it can't, it's pretty pissy when it comes to .mkv I've had success before streaming the files, or you could try putting it on a USB, selecting the USB with triangle and saying "show all" or whatever it is. Sometimes those two work. Other times it'll refuse to work entirely. If you're watching a film you'll probably want to disconnect from the internet entirely, otherwise it'll do a cinivia check for pirated files and cut your audio out midway through the film. I think a lot of it has to do with how the files is encoded and so on. For example, I've never had problems watching Game of Thrones in 720p... but there's plenty of films that I haven't been able to watch for different reasons.

Liam Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Is it better to convert the file to a different format then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
