Title: The fuck is wrong with my PS3?
Post by: Eel O'Brian on May 06, 2008, 12:54:03 AM: Sometimes when I play PS2 games, the screen gets split with the bottom half of the picture at the top of the screen, and the top half at the bottom - like a partial rollover. I'll often have to eject and re-insert the disc and start the game over several times for the picture to correct itself. It's annoying as fuck. Anyone know what could be causing this?

Post by: Eel O'Brian on May 06, 2008, 01:28:10 AM: I think I finally figured it out, I have to set my display at 720p when playing PS2 games. It doesn't do the "split" on that setting.

what a cool game

Post by: MCD on May 06, 2008, 01:52:02 AM: sony's problem this gen is the weak support of japanese games, i bought my ps1/2 for japafag games like final fantasy or whatever but instead we are stuck with resistance and uncharted here.

Post by: pilonv1 on May 06, 2008, 01:53:20 AM: 360 is a far better jappafag console of choice so far.

it would be a flawless victory is someone would man up and release idolmaster outside Japan.

Post by: MCD on May 06, 2008, 01:56:29 AM: better marketing and a new small redesign will help with that.
