PS3 £100

Begbie · 17 Sep 2009 at 20:04

Hello,

Been offered a PS3 for £100 by a mate, sure its the 60gb version though may be wrong here. Now he says the control pad d/c itself and will only re-connect if you rest it which could be a pain if the game ain't saved etc.

Is this still a good deal, and is there a way round this?

Get it, PS3s are easy to repair, trust me on that.

Has he tried a different pad?

He ain't tried anything, he doesn't have any receipts for it.

Think he got it slightly dodgy.

He ain't tried anything, he wants a slim. Think I may jump at this, even to sell it on ebay

£100 for the 60gb version is a steal.

No, its quite widely known that Robert is gay.

Cheers guys! Most likely going to get it.

Another quick question, using a monitor just now. Can you use a PS3 via VGA?

O and who is she in the sig?

Buy for £100, sell it and get a slim

Has he upgraded to fw3.00? I heard there was disconnection problems with some types of ps3 controllers, might just be that?

V4NT0M · 17 Sep 2009 at 23:43

If you have the money to spare get it, you can at least sell it on.

Well it's likely to be an old Sixaxis pad anyway. So even if it did work you'd still likely buy a Dualshock 3 in the future anyway.

£100 is what i paid for my 80Gig version new. From the Sony store as well

And how did this happen???? Answers on a postcard........

There are these ps3 to vga cables you can buy, seen some good and bad reports on them.
Retail for around £30.00

Sounds like a dodgy controller. £100 would easily be recoverable at auction so it's a np-brainer really.

There was an opening sale in York a few weeks back, could have been from there.
