How do i hook up standard pc speakers to a ps 3 ?

Q. as the question states i would like to hook up my pc speakers to a ps 3 ? The reason is becuase ive already figured out to hook it up to my monitor through a hdmi to dvi d cable but this of course has no sound. So what do i need to make this happen.

A. are their audio outputs on ps3? like red and white Phono sockets as you will need to get leads and put the jacks in the phono like a dvd player and plug them into an auxiliary device like surround sound or hi-fi amplifier that can take audio in-put from ps3 (audio out-put)

ps3 - audio out

hi-fi or surround - audio in

there is another way try HD ready telly that has built in speakers and use audio out puts on telly to surround sound

Can I connect my PC to my PS 3 through a wireless router?

Q. I have a PC and a wireless router at different places. I'm planning on buying a PS 3 and i want to stream or copy music and videos from my PC to my PS 3. Is this possible using the wireless router that these devices will use to connect to the internet? If both the PC and the PS 3 use the router to connect to the internet, do they come 'into the same network'? Any help will be really appreciated.
Will it be possible to stream high-def content through a router (from PC to PS3)? what speeds of transfer should one expect?
Will it be possible to stream high-def content through a router (from PC to PS3)? what speeds of transfer should one expect?

A. If you use Windows Media Player, you can setup your PC to act as a media server and stream media to your PS3. It works fairly well, but I prefer to use an external hard drive to put files on the PS3's hard drive.

And if the PC and PS3 use the same router, they will appear on the same local network.

How do I get my PS 3 to work with HDMI on new TV?

Q. I bought a 32" Philips LCD TV that has two HDMI slots and goes up to 720 P HD.I bought it specifically to use with my Playstation 3.I bought a 16 foot HDMI cable made by Monster Cable company.It seems i have done it right,I put the HDMI cable on slot 1 and use source on my control to put it on HDMI 1,all i get is a black screen.Tried it again on slot 2 and switched TV to HDMI slot 2 on source and that one won't work either.It works with standard connector cables that came with the PS 3 but I can't get it to work with the HDMI cord to play in full HD.I am getting very stressed as i paid 900 for this TV and want to know if theres something I am doing wrong?

A. Try connecting the cables that came with your ps3, and also connect the HDMI cable. Go to your tv put it so it on the regular AV cable input channel. Then go into your ps3 menu for display and select HDMI then your screen should go black, switch to the input channel to the HDMI and it should work.

Are my playstation 2 games compatible with the playstation 3?

Q. I need to get a playstation 3 but I can't decide between a 40 gb or an 80 gb. Are either of them compatible with the ps2 games? I need to get one on time for the new gta game. Please help and thanks in advance!

A. Ok so the 40gb cant play PS2 games, but the 20, 60 and 80gb can. I have an 80gb. :)

Well some people might say the 40gb is the same as the rest. Well the right answer is NO!

The 40gb is like the "stripped down" version of the PS3. Yes, it is a PS3, but just with less features. Ill start with the crappy cons 1st, just to get it over with. So the 40gb, CANNOT, and i repeat, CANNOT play PS2 games, even with an update. So if you have some cool ps2 games you want to play, you cant play it with the 40gb. Only has 2 USB ports, so if your'e gunna use it for ipods, memory or some sort, you're out of luck. No memory card readers, so if you wanna plug in a pro duo from a psp, or a SD for photos, you're out of luck again.

Cons:
- This PS3 is the stripped down model:
- Only has 2 USB instead of 4.
- NO PS2 COMPATIBILTY!!
- No memory card readers :(
- Only a 40gb.

Ok, so i said ONLY a 40gb. Well you can always change your harddrive to something bigger, so it's possible to even have a 1TB (1000GB) PS3. All you need is any 2.5" serial ATA Harddrive running at 5200RPM. Best part is that it wont void the warranty. Now you may be thinking, "wth man, this 40gb sucks!" Well here are some pros! :)

Pros:
- It's a new, 7th gen playstation 3.
- It has HD graphics, it will amaze you with it's 1080p glory. (Yes, it has over 2 million pixels; more than your eyes)
- Great games, and some exclusives coming out like tekken, MGS4 and so forth.
- The cheapest blu ray player you can find as of right now. You can also play games! woot! Blu ray already won the format war, so buy one. :)
- PS3 Home is coming soon. Home is an online community, where other ps3 people chat and stuff. You can create an avatar, chat, play games, have achivements etc. Soon, it will be better than xbox live!
- Best console in my p.o.v

I hoped i helped, and dont forget to choose best answer. If you're wondering, i would get a 60 or 80gb BECAUSE of the PS2 backwards compatibilitys. Keep in mind that the 60gb is out of production, and can play all of the ps2 games. The 80gb is out for now, but returning in the summer with MGS4 and a DUALSHOCK3. It can play most. But thte update 2.10 enabled it to play all.

So yea, dont forget to choose a best answer! :D

How do i hook up standard pc speakers to a ps 3 ?

Q. as the question states i would like to hook up my pc speakers to a ps 3 ? The reason is becuase ive already figured out to hook it up to my monitor through a hdmi to dvi d cable but this of course has no sound. So what do i need to make this happen.

A. are their audio outputs on ps3? like red and white Phono sockets as you will need to get leads and put the jacks in the phono like a dvd player and plug them into an auxiliary device like surround sound or hi-fi amplifier that can take audio in-put from ps3 (audio out-put)

Will it be possible to stream high-def content through a router (from PC to PS3)? what speeds of transfer should one expect?

A. If you use Windows Media Player, you can setup your PC to act as a media server and stream media to your PS3. It works fairly well, but I prefer to use an external hard drive to put files on the PS3's hard drive.

And if the PC and PS3 use the same router, they will appear on the same local network.

How do I get my PS 3 to work with HDMI on new TV?

Q. I bought a 32" Philips LCD TV that has two HDMI slots and goes up to 720 P HD.I bought it specifically to use with my Playstation 3.I bought a 16 foot HDMI cable made by Monster Cable company.It seems i have done it right,I put the HDMI cable on slot 1 and use source on my control to put it on HDMI 1,all i get is a black screen.Tried it again on slot 2 and switched TV to HDMI slot 2 on source and that one won't work either.It works with standard connector cables that came with the PS 3 but I can't get it to work with the HDMI cord to play in full HD.I am getting very stressed as i paid 900 for this TV and want to know if theres something I am doing wrong?

A. Try connecting the cables that came with your ps3, and also connect the HDMI cable. Go to your tv put it so it on the regular AV cable input channel. Then go into your ps3 menu for display and select HDMI then your screen should go black, switch to the input channel to the HDMI and it should work.

I think my playstation 3 caught a virus. How can I get rid of it and protect my system?

Q. My playstation 3 internet browser worked fine at first, but after cruising the internet for some time things got a little slow and buggy. I don't think I can download anti-virus software.

A. Well, is there anything else that happens with your Playstation 3? On the news, I found out that the Playstation 3 overheats. This causes the loss of all information and data that has not been saved. If you are having a problem similar to this, you are not the only one.

Here's a Tip: When a new game system comes out, don't buy it right away. Wait about 6 months prior at least, so they can work out the bugs, gliches, and problems. Then, it won't be a waste of money.

That's really all I can tell you. I don't know what else to say. Hope I helped.

Are my playstation 2 games compatible with the playstation 3?

Q. I need to get a playstation 3 but I can't decide between a 40 gb or an 80 gb. Are either of them compatible with the ps2 games? I need to get one on time for the new gta game. Please help and thanks in advance!

A. Ok so the 40gb cant play PS2 games, but the 20, 60 and 80gb can. I have an 80gb. :)

Well some people might say the 40gb is the same as the rest. Well the right answer is NO!

The 40gb is like the "stripped down" version of the PS3. Yes, it is a PS3, but just with less features. Ill start with the crappy cons 1st, just to get it over with. So the 40gb, CANNOT, and i repeat, CANNOT play PS2 games, even with an update. So if you have some cool ps2 games you want to play, you cant play it with the 40gb. Only has 2 USB ports, so if your'e gunna use it for ipods, memory or some sort, you're out of luck. No memory card readers, so if you wanna plug in a pro duo from a psp, or a SD for photos, you're out of luck again.

Cons:
- This PS3 is the stripped down model:
- Only has 2 USB instead of 4.
- NO PS2 COMPATIBILTY!!
- No memory card readers :(
- Only a 40gb.

Ok, so i said ONLY a 40gb. Well you can always change your harddrive to something bigger, so it's possible to even have a 1TB (1000GB) PS3. All you need is any 2.5" serial ATA Harddrive running at 5200RPM. Best part is that it wont void the warranty. Now you may be thinking, "wth man, this 40gb sucks!" Well here are some pros! :)

Pros:
- It's a new, 7th gen playstation 3.
- It has HD graphics, it will amaze you with it's 1080p glory. (Yes, it has over 2 million pixels; more than your eyes)
- Great games, and some exclusives coming out like tekken, MGS4 and so forth.
- The cheapest blu ray player you can find as of right now. You can also play games! woot! Blu ray already won the format war, so buy one. :)
- PS3 Home is coming soon. Home is an online community, where other ps3 people chat and stuff. You can create an avatar, chat, play games, have achivements etc. Soon, it will be better than xbox live!
- Best console in my p.o.v

I hoped i helped, and dont forget to choose best answer. If you're wondering, i would get a 60 or 80gb BECAUSE of the PS2 backwards compatibilitys. Keep in mind that the 60gb is out of production, and can play all of the ps2 games. The 80gb is out for now, but returning in the summer with MGS4 and a DUALSHOCK3. It can play most. But thte update 2.10 enabled it to play all.

So yea, dont forget to choose a best answer! :D

I bought a 32" Philips LCD TV that has two HDMI slots and goes up to 720 P HD.I bought it specifically to use with my Playstation 3.I bought a 16 foot HDMI cable made by Monster Cable company.It seems i have done it right,I put the HDMI cable on slot 1 and use source on my control to put it on HDMI 1,all i get is a black screen.Tried it again on slot 2 and switched TV to HDMI slot 2 on source and that one won't work either.It works with standard connector cables that came with the PS 3 but I can't get it to work with the HDMI cord to play in full HD.I am getting very stressed as i paid 900 for this TV and want to know if theres something I am doing wrong?

A. Try connecting the cables that came with your ps3, and also connect the HDMI cable. Go to your tv put it so it on the regular AV cable input channel. Then go into your ps3 menu for display and select HDMI then your screen should go black, switch to the input channel to the HDMI and it should work.

Can I attach an external USB TV tuner to a PS 3 and will it work?

Q. It's connected to a TV but for some reason, the audio signal from the antenna doesn't work. The internal speakers are working though because it works when we play games and watch DVDs on the PS 3.

A. You'd need drivers for something like that, most likely you'll need to install Linux on your ps3 for that to work.

I think my playstation 3 caught a virus. How can I get rid of it and protect my system?

Q. My playstation 3 internet browser worked fine at first, but after cruising the internet for some time things got a little slow and buggy. I don't think I can download anti-virus software.

A. Well, is there anything else that happens with your Playstation 3? On the news, I found out that the Playstation 3 overheats. This causes the loss of all information and data that has not been saved. If you are having a problem similar to this, you are not the only one.

Here's a Tip: When a new game system comes out, don't buy it right away. Wait about 6 months prior at least, so they can work out the bugs, gliches, and problems. Then, it won't be a waste of money.

That's really all I can tell you. I don't know what else to say. Hope I helped.

Are my playstation 2 games compatible with the playstation 3?

Q. I need to get a playstation 3 but I can't decide between a 40 gb or an 80 gb. Are either of them compatible with the ps2 games? I need to get one on time for the new gta game. Please help and thanks in advance!

A. Ok so the 40gb cant play PS2 games, but the 20, 60 and 80gb can. I have an 80gb. :)

Well some people might say the 40gb is the same as the rest. Well the right answer is NO!

The 40gb is like the "stripped down" version of the PS3. Yes, it is a PS3, but just with less features. Ill start with the crappy cons 1st, just to get it over with. So the 40gb, CANNOT, and i repeat, CANNOT play PS2 games, even with an update. So if you have some cool ps2 games you want to play, you cant play it with the 40gb. Only has 2 USB ports, so if your'e gunna use it for ipods, memory or some sort, you're out of luck. No memory card readers, so if you wanna plug in a pro duo from a psp, or a SD for photos, you're out of luck again.

Cons:
- This PS3 is the stripped down model:
- Only has 2 USB instead of 4.
- NO PS2 COMPATIBILTY!!
- No memory card readers :(
- Only a 40gb.

Ok, so i said ONLY a 40gb. Well you can always change your harddrive to something bigger, so it's possible to even have a 1TB (1000GB) PS3. All you need is any 2.5" serial ATA Harddrive running at 5200RPM. Best part is that it wont void the warranty. Now you may be thinking, "wth man, this 40gb sucks!" Well here are some pros! :)

Pros:
- It's a new, 7th gen playstation 3.
- It has HD graphics, it will amaze you with it's 1080p glory. (Yes, it has over 2 million pixels; more than your eyes)
- Great games, and some exclusives coming out like tekken, MGS4 and so forth.
- The cheapest blu ray player you can find as of right now. You can also play games! woot! Blu ray already won the format war, so buy one. :)
- PS3 Home is coming soon. Home is an online community, where other ps3 people chat and stuff. You can create an avatar, chat, play games, have achivements etc. Soon, it will be better than xbox live!
- Best console in my p.o.v

I hoped i helped, and dont forget to choose best answer. If you're wondering, i would get a 60 or 80gb BECAUSE of the PS2 backwards compatibilitys. Keep in mind that the 60gb is out of production, and can play all of the ps2 games. The 80gb is out for now, but returning in the summer with MGS4 and a DUALSHOCK3. It can play most. But thte update 2.10 enabled it to play all.

So yea, dont forget to choose a best answer! :D

Are there many players online for Playstation 3?

Q. I originally wanted a PS3 knowing that the hardware was much better, but opted for the Xbox 360 because of a larger online community.

What I want to know is the games that they do have online capability for, on the Playstation 3, are there many players online daily?

On Xbox 360, any of the semi-popular games, there are atleast 50 players online at any given time. Usually atleast 100 for the poular games. Is this the same on the PS3?

Im especially asking about the shooter games.

A. Yes there is a good amount of people online now days. Call of duty 3 has ussually 100 atleast at a time. Madden has a whole lot. the only trouble for online is with my nascar 08 game for it. Just about any shooter game or sports game has online for it. It tells you on the back of the box if it has online. Go for the PS3. Make sure you buy it at like a store that takes things back. Yes the shooter games are great online and its free. You dont have to pay 50 bucks a year to play it online. It also has some great games coming out. there is Warhawk it looks really good and it comes with a blue tooth headset. Unreal Tournament 2007 and there is another game i forgot the name of that you can camo flauge. I recommend the PS3. Also it comes with a Blu Ray Player. The graphics are about the same for now. the 360's have been having way too much problems. You can do a whole lot more with the PS3.
