Not as sharp as freeview, but watchable none the less.

My PS3 is making some weird noises. It's almost as if there's a very feint buzzing sound coming from inside. As soon as I touch the system, the sound stops. Even the slightest touch causes the sound to stop, and the performance hasn't suffered in any way. Any ideas what this could be?

Dust? I remember my Ps2 made some weird noises but the included "you must vaccuum the console" kept me on top of that.

Something on the console is loose, no doubt. Mine was doing something similar.. I found out it was the "strength" of the disc motor shaking the keyboard beside it. I moved the keyboard, and the buzzing stopped.

So, I used the internet browser today and tried watching some YouTube videos on my PS3.
YouTube looks like shit on a television.

Yeah, even the "HD" stuff is pretty rough.

Yeah, brings back some fond childhood memories playing through it. They seemed to have changed some parts of the game (then again, I'm probably thinking of the Manhattan Project on NES).

You're probably thinking of the SNES version, which is different than the arcade version, which is the one they based the remake on.

Is the co-op for this remake for 2 or 4 players? I didn't check that out last night when I downloaded it.

Figured I'd post it here..
Yesterday our Sony rep came in and showed off the PSP GO!...
I'm tempted to get one now. It's very sleek and lightweight..the whole "16GB storage" is actually a flash drive inside the system with a port for an MS (?) stick to bring it to about 24GB of storage. The tiny analog stick does kinda suck and he mentioned they had talks about trying to make a model with two analog sticks but said he didn't know if they were serious about making another model or content with what they had.
The power switch being on the side of the system still sucks however and I wish they could've put it on the top of the system instead but despite that, it looks and feels like a solid system.

Yeah, I never played the arcade version, only the SNES version so that is why it seemed a little different and shorter.
It has 4 player co-op. One of the trophies is to finish the game with 4 players.

Speaking of TMNT, anyone else get the ultra distorted audio during the intro?

I have that as well. Audio is fnie during gameplay, but during the opening video and the Ubisoft video there is some crazy audio clipping.

Yeah, it's brutal, it scared the crap out of me the first time as I wasn't expecting anything that loud, at all. heh

Well this should come as a shock to absolutely NO ONE:

I wasn't likely to get the PSPgo anyway, but this assures that I never will. Good job Sorny.

Daft, daft move from Sony, though not unexpected, since they've been making strange decisions for most of this 'Generation' cycle.
BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY ON PS3.... will be removed shortly after release.
PSP2000!!!!!!!....... will only be out a few months before ANOTHER PSP with only digital distribution at Sony set prices

Im convinced Sony came up with the PSP solely to beta test the waters for the PS3. It started to use a new format for games, introduced the menu system and now DL games only. Everything that was liked was eventually made into the ps3.

PSP was a great idea, but then never followed through on it, and never really cemented what it actually was. They picked up huge in popularity a few years ago when the firmware rip became widespread knowledge. Had loads of people coming in buying 2nd hand ones so they could wipe the firmware, install the cracked version, and play free games off memory sticks.

The PSPGo is DL-only. The PS3 will never be DL-only for games. They eliminate the BRD and they eliminate half the reason for buying the console.

They already have some existing ps3 games available for DL. Xbox released a series of titles for download rather than disk. I honestly think its what the next gen will all be about.

Oh, I see what you're getting at. PSPGo is a testing ground for what PS4 could have. I really do think they're going to hit a wall of resistance with this.. digital distribution isn't that widely accepted yet. Tons of consumers are still "old fashioned" (this includes me) and like to have something to hold in their hands.. especially when they're dropping $50-70 on a game (whereas most downloadable titles now are $5-15).

Plus you're going to lose thousand of jobs in the retail and, to a lesser extent, logistical companies.

Exactly. Back to the consumer - not to mention the countless amount of people who don't have the kind of net access that could download a huge game. Can you imagine having to download MGS4 on satellite internet? Brutal!

Aye, I don't think its 'around the corner' so to speak, but Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft are certainly looking at leading the consumer that way very slowly with the way they've set up their online stores.
Sony seem more prepared to go that way, with the PSP4 and Sony Home leading the way. Both are huge projects, and Home STILL isn't finished, that if they work could be 'ground breaking'. However, I don't think people are ready to latch onto the idea just yet - people like to have 'stuff'.
