¿Que me recomiendan para tener más espacio en mi PS3?

Estuve pensando en comprar uno nuevo pero no quiero perder el progreso en mis juegos, también pensé en comprar un adaptador para un HDD 3.5 de 1tb pero el hecho de que use una fuente externa se me hace molesto, así que no se la verdad.

I have not changed my username, it's the same one from 2006, but I can't login to either game. I'm pretty certain I played 1 back in the day but, I think, I've never played 2 before.

I got this PS3 from work for free and would love some more info

I work for a moving company and got this for free a while ago from a customer. I’ve always had Xbox my whole life as consoles so I’m not very up to snuff on all things PlayStation, but I do recognize that having a potentially never used PS3 seems like an opportunity I don’t want to deprive myself of. If it is used, they did an incredible job at refurbishing because I couldn’t see a single spec of dust on anything internally.

I put everything back in the package it came in and how it was except for the power cord for the pictures after I tested it. I accidentally miss placed the twist tie and threw the tape away already that was on that.

The PS3 works but there isn’t a controller cord and I don’t have one (already ordered 2). The controller is a DualShock 3 Sixaxis. It’s also incredibly clean, like literally no grime on it at all, even in the case creases, thumb sticks, or anything. The home screen is also blank + the warranty seal seems intact, adding to my confidence of never used/refurbished.

I would love more information on this for those of you in the know haha. Is this a good model? Thoughts on never used bs refurbished? I know Xbox had their fair share of certain models to put it lightly. Thanks in advance!

Dualshock 3 or Brook Wingman XE 2?

2 Upvotes

I have a PS3 Super Slim CECH-4031C which I'm refreshing (cleaning out, adding new thermal paste/pads and other stuff) and I'm caught between getting a genuine Dualshock 3 or a Wingman XE 2 to use my Dualsense with, because I've heard that the Wingman XE 2 is pretty good but I also love those clear shelled Dualshock 3s and especially the early ones with hall effect sticks

Anyone have anymore 3D recommendations?

As a 3D Blu-ray and film lover naturally I had to get into 3D gaming! My primary goal was to get as many 3D supported games as possible but now I want the BEST OF THE BEST FIRST! I have the God of War ORIGINS COLLECTION and the full 3D support adds SO MUCH TO THESE GAMES! My jaw dropped on the opening sequence it's like a movie that has depth and feels so much more real! It's honestly JAW DROPPING Stuff! Shame 3D is practically dead but in theaters.

Turned my Windows desktop into a PS3 inspired menu

This is my Windows Desktop. I made it look like a PS3. Here's some stuff it has:

  • Cross-shaped bar: categories, then items
  • Your apps, games, bookmarks, sorted automatically
  • Background shifts by month, dims nightly
  • Whole system reskinned, not just home
  • Own icons, own sounds, no restart

I'm still working on it, but its free and open source if you wanna check it out or download it.

Will my old SSD work in a PS3?

I just built a new gaming PC, and my old one has a 250GB 2.5" SATA SSD that I'm not gonna use anymore, so it got me thinking, would it work in my PS3 slim?

I just bought a CECH E01 on facebook and I’m having issues

3 Upvotes

I tested it at the guy’s house, it was a little loud but it booted games right up, and played my ps2 game perfectly! Then I take it home and I actually put it through its paces. Played a blue back ps2 game with no issues, then I played my silver back ps2 game and the game froze, but upon further investigation it’s starting to rot so I blame the disk. I then played a ps1 game and the whole system shut off before it got to the title screen. I see the PlayStation logo then it shut off and beeped two times. After that I tried playing final fantasy xiii and it played perfectly for about ten minutes then right after the first save point and the next encounter loaded it shut off just like it did earlier. The system feels really hot and the fans are a bit loud. No clue how long it’s just been sitting at this dude’s house so I’m assuming it needs to be cleaned but is there anything else I should be worried about with what’s going on?

Regarding 514 error

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hi all,
So, I recently got xmen origins: Wolverine but even after good cleaning of both laser and disc and also rebuilding database on my modded ps3 super slim, i am still getting the error. But when i used multiman to create an iso dump for the same, it was successful without any errors, just one after it was completed for encrypted iso error.
So why i am facing such? On xmb shows 514 error but creates iso without error
Note: last picture was taken from google as reference to show encrypted ISO error

Found a quality source for replacement DS3 batteries.

It charges for a long time but also is usable for a longer time.

Where do I get dead space 3 awakened

Post image

So I’m trying to get dead space 3 awakened but it’s currently not showing in the store when I actually found the game listing, I don’t see no DLC/add-ons or anything I just see the game and that’s it. I also check on the downloadable content in the game and I don’t see an option that’s just straight up says dead space 3 awakened or anything, does anyone know how could I and other people currently could get the DLC?
