    PS3 Fat just bit the dust. Does it matter which new/refurb PS3 I buy to replace it?

    After 6 years my MGS4, 80GB PS3 bit the dust *snif*. The fix it place said reflowing it wouldn't help. Not ready for a PS4. I'm overwhelmed with the PS3 options at this point. The 12GB Superslim seems to be the standard current model but hard to find. The slims seem to be readily available but...

    Help with the Official PS3 BT headset

    I just bought the v2 official BT headset for PS3. I've paired it but my buddies say I am coming across all scratch and hard to hear. Can anyone point me to some resources to try to troubleshoot this? I've got a great internet connection, it is hardwired, and I believe plenty of upload...

    Getting Mobile Site on Desktop Browser

    I've recently switched to Firefox on my Mac for general browsing (and b/c Safari crashes on me all the time). However, when I use the CAG forums the mobile version of the forums comes up. The rest of CAG.com comes up as normal, but again, the forums are coming up as the mobile version. As...

    Rock Band 2 Wii vs. PS 3 Prices

    A friend of mine, who has a Wii, is interested in Rock Band 2 and getting the whole bundle. I'm a PS3 owner and told them, great "Prices have really come down and you can get it for less than $150." I was surprised to see that the Wii prices are actually still around $300 while for the PS3...

    Does your PSP ever just turn on by itself?

    I have a 1000 PSP. Every so often it just turns on by itself. Most of the time it then just stays on. It probably happens more than I notice because sometimes I will go to try to turn it on myself and it won't b/c the battery is dead. Tonight it turned on and then proceeded to try to obtain...

    NBA 2k10 - Possible CAG League?

    I've got my cash saved for NBA 2k10. I'm trying to gauge interest in a CAG-based league. Anyone else excited about this? I've had mixed success with CAG sport-leagues, (they tend to fizzle out) but would love to have one for this game. I'd prefer to do a fantasy draft but I know those often...

    New PS3 Sig

    I'm trying to use the new PS3 badge in my signature. However, when I post my message the code only comes back. You'll probably see that in my sig below. How do I properly add it so it appears?

    Xbox w/ XBMC auction pulled from eBay. Where else can I sell it?

    I recently put up an auction for an Original Xbox with XBMC installed along with games and accessories. eBay pulled the auction a few hours after it went live citing copyright violation. I didn't expect it since it looked like a few others had sold there recently. Regardless, I can see their...

    Games/Accessories to compliment my in-laws' new Wii

    My father-in-law bought my mother-in-law a Wii for this Christmas. As our family's resident gamer, they are turning to me for ideas on games and accessories to go along with the base system. Unfortunately, I'm not up-to-date on the latest Wii stuff (I'm a PS3 owner). I thought I'd turn to my...

    Time for new Music Visualizers. Am I right or what!?

    This may be a bit nitpciky, but I'm surprised that with all the updates to the PS3 firmware over the last two years, Sony has never given us any new visualizer for music playback. The three that we do have I feel are pretty lame and could use a lot more features or alternatives altogether. Why...

    Viewing PSN Friends through the web - problem?

    For the past two weeks or so, when I try to view my PSN friends through the PlayStation website I get error message when I try to log in. This is even after updating/confirming my password. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks

    No PS3 DDR WTF

    So the PS3 has been out for two years now and there isn't a PS3 native DDR game available for it yet. This just struck me today and it strikes me as weird. As far as I can tell one hasn't even been announced yet. What a shame . . . Can anyone think of a reason why one isn't out yet? I can't...

    GT:Prologue question

    I have a buddy who just bought a PS3. He's back into gaming for the first time in 10 or so years. He fondly remembers the original Grand Turismo and wants to pick it up as one of his first games (along with Madden and CoD4). I don't have GT:Prologue but remember it getting mixed reviews. I...

    Recs on a good multiplayer PS3 game (there's a catch!)

    I'm trying to find a good, fun PS3 game that would allow two local players to play with one remote player. So my buddy and I would be in one room, on one PS3 watching one tv both of us playing at the same time with another buddy online who is in another location. It could be a shooter, racing...

    Are there scam artists on PSN?

    Recently I started getting some friend invites over PSN. I had posted some vids to Singstar and started to get some responses a few hours later. I thought they were a little too friendly considering we hadn't played any games together. This may be naive, but are there scam artist out there...

    Was Online Poker down for anyone else tonight?

    I bought High Stakes Poker today and never could get online. It kept timing out on me as it tried to connect. I assumed that with the discounted price, everyone was trying to get on. Though I'd check with the CAG community to see what their experience was. Anyone? Thanks Dr. SP PS - Let...

    Need a rec on a great mult-player PSN game

    I'm the only long-time gamer in my group of friends. However, my buddy just picked up a PS3 mainly for the blu-ray but also for his son who is a gamer. He is open to playing some stuff with me but is, frankly, overwhelmed by the complexity of MGS4 that came packed in with his PS3. (I am too at...

    Anyone bother to negotiate for "free stuff" when getting a new console?

    I'll be in the market for a PS3 once they pack in the rumble controller (hopefully soon!). Since there is a Best Buy, 2 Gamestops, Toys R Us, Wal-Mart, and Circuit City within 2 miles of each other near my house I was wondering if I could negotiate some sort of deal on a new PS3. Has anyone...
