Hello, Pak Gamers,
I've been doing a load of searching on this but haven't found any help so far. I have a 60GB PAL model ps3 (CECHC03), running OFW 3.66(the latest). It works great, plays Blu rays, and DVD movies.
But its failed to play any PS2 game I put in. According to the Internet, It should play PS2 games without any problem. Others say I need a software called "PS2 system data" which is no longer available on the PS store.
Whenever I put a PS2 game in the ps3, a "data disc" shows up in the Music, video and photo columns, which I can browse, but they generally do not have any content. Nothing shows up in the game column. I've tried a lot of stuff, even burned the files to iso format in another DVD-R but that didn't change a thing
What's your advice?

You're trying to play pirated PS2 games.. not Original PS2 games. You can only play Original PS2 games. To play Pirated PS2 games, you'll have to hack your PS3 but i dont think you can do that on 3.66 FWHello, Pak Gamers,

possible with black cobra usbNo not on hacked console either
@pspwxp fan you can't hack your ps3 as it is on 3.66 OFW. wait till some hack comes for it.
Ok guys I wonder if someone has tried this so just asking:
Q1. Is it safe to play PS3 on UPS?
Q2. Is it safe to use LCD (42") on UPS?
I dont want to take the risk if its dangerous. So any help will be appreciated. Thx

Hmm, thanks. I dont know abt UPS rating but it keeps 3-fans and a couple of light for an hour easily. It has 140 battery. Should be fine I guess.
i think you mean 14.0 battery, but judging from your ups i would not advise you to run your ps3, ofcourse the issue is that i do not think it would sustain both the lcd and the ps3

can anyone please give me the PARAM.SFO file for Final Fantasy 13, i'd really really appreciate it
The firmware update hardly takes a few minutes, so it's unlikely that you'll get a power failure just when your PS3 is in the middle of the process. I'd say the best time for you to update would be fifteen or so minutes after the power comes back on.
The new firmware hasn't been jailbroken yet, so you might want to stick to 3.55 if you plan to jailbreak your PS3 in the near future. Otherwise, you'll be stuck until a new jailbreak comes around.
Black ops hardfreezes
Yepp, title says it all. I keep getting hardfreezes after every match in mp mode. I have even deleted the gamesave data and tried but still nothing. During matches there is no briefing voice yelling domintaion, enemy is taking B, napalm strike or what ever. basically its only gun noises and ppl running around during games and it ends with a hardfreeze when going back to pre-game lobby.
Looking forward to your replys

No param.sfo is required for it bro :/
you could try but I dont think it will run the ps3 and the lcd for long, but as far as speaking generally whether you should use ur ps3 and lcd with a ups then that would be a yes, because I have been using my PS3 and my 42" LCD with the ups for quite some time, and my ups can make it run for more than 2 hours.

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

XPremiuM:
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
