Re: PS3 Menu Problem:

Wolfen the same thing happend to me last night when I first hooked up the PS3. I think it was when it asked me if I wanted the PS3 to automatically configure itself for optimal settings and I chose No. It was either that or I when I chose the wrong resolution. I thought of you right away cause my screen went black but I could hear the audio sound it makes when you navigate through the menus. The little clicking sound or whatever when you scroll left or right to highlight a different option.

What I did is turned off the PS3, turned the switch off in the back (right above the power cord), unplugged the powercord for 30 seconds and then plugged it back in. Turned the switch back on and turned on the PS3. I could see the menu again, it asked me all the questions again and I chose 1080P as the resolution, and clicked yes for optimal settings and this time I was able to see the menus.

I hope this helps.

No Mr Proof00 I just thought the audio was funny. Calm down. You shouldn't take life so seriously, its not like any one ever gets out alive. I don't really like the ps3 over the 360 for games but I am pretty sure it plays Blurays alot better. I don't know why but every time I put a Blu-ray in the 360 I get an error message. Do you know how I might be able to fix that?

I fixed it on my end.......

operator error. I had the PS3 hooked up to another TV (gaming Vizio - 1080i). I moved it to my Pio (1080p) and Yammie and then had the menu problem. It's fixed now.

Tim,

I still say the PS3 is the best option at this juncture. I am beginning to see Henning's points however and I will most likely give the PS3 to my daughters when the Panny 50 comes out.

Or you could trade it in for one of these rigs...

or you could give your ps3 to me. I want to play some of the games coming out this year.

I'm looking forward to Socom 4 and that new Star Wars: Force Unleashed game.

My brother wants to build a wooden mock race car and put the stering wheele controler in it to play grand torizmo so its like being in a car. (and yes he is very much old enough to drive a real car.) Also though god of war is a great game, and i think resistance 2 looks like a fun game. But nothing compairs to Socom. That was the first game I can remember for a concole that had voice recog.

Actually building the mock race car would be cool for playing games if you have the space for it.

By the way here's a Socom 4 trailer of one of the most popular maps in the series, Crossroads.
