At least yours works somewhat.

My linksys wireless just boots me off and shuts down my entire router (needs a hard reset). Some sort of problem with the WRT54G that Sony/Linksys still havent addressed.

I had to turn off the ability to connect/recognize wireless networks.

I'm a bit skeptical about that... The guitars have a PS button and they work just like controllers at the XMB, right? I'm willing to bet bluetooth is just more expensive, and they'd probably have to include internal rechargeable batteries.

I was wondering how well the PS2 emulation is on a PS3 without an Emotion Engine. It would help if you could compare it to the Xbox360 backwards compatibility.

WAAAAAAAAAY better than the 360 emulation.

Try to use TVersity as your media server. I can never get Windows Media Server to work, it always disconnects, but TVersity has been flawless.

for remote play to work.. must you always leave the ps3 on the remote play screen?

Good because the 360's emulation sucks. Is there any downside to its emulation? Should I just play ps2 games on my ps2 when I get a PS3?

Every time I play a PS1 game on the PS3, the controller defaults to digital-only mode. Is there a way to have the analog sticks on by default?

Good idea Link, but I think with how many different pool threads there are (I just clicked through to another repository, then to yet another one), it would probably be a better idea to have some of this information stored in a wiki.

The wife okayed buying a PS3, so I'm hunting for a used 60GB model around Atlanta. Unfortunately, the closest one at a GS is in Dalton, 60 miles away. I've found a 20GB much closer.

The real question is, is wireless really worth the extra $70 and 120 miles worth of gas? My 360 isn't wireless either, and unless I get that adapter for free, it's probably not going to be.

I figure I could set up a wireless bridge. It would be the same amount as the difference in price, but would cover the Xbox, 360 and PS3. Thoughts?

Oh yeah: saw MLB 08 in action at MicroCenter, that's my first game.

Would someone be kind enough to point me somewhere where I can read about features of the upcoming PS3s? I've been dying to get one lately, but I don't want a 40gb...

I think your only option on the horizen is the MGS4 80GB, with BC, DS3 controller, and MGS4.

Anyone know why Heavenly Sword switches to 480p or 720p after the game loads when it's 1080p in the XMB?

That triple don't upscale. The game's native resolution is 720p.

Thanks for the info

How do you set games to output from the PS3 to a HDTV in 1080p?

I went into Display Settings and clicked off 720p, 1080i. I could not unclick 480p because it was grayed out. 1080p was clicked.

I was able to get Assassin's Creed to 1080p, but Motorstorm defaulted in 480p.

Thanks

I used to own Motorstorm and I believe its maximum resolution is 720p. Since you had it unchecked, it defaulted down to 480p. Double-check the back of the box or us.playstation.com to be sure.

Games cannot be "forced" into 1080p. There are numerous titles that do not display higher than what is stated on the back of the box.

Any idea why I can't uncheck 480p?

probably a safety net. every tv supports 480, and every game supports 480.

That's the reason. The problem is the ONLY HD resolution MotorStorm, Resistance, and some other games support is 720p. You cannot ever get MotorStorm to display in 1080i.
