PS3 FAQ's thread needed - need some help

Joebob · 11 Aug 2007 at 09:29

i keep seeing some PS3 questions being asked again and again so I thought about making a PS3 FAQ's thread which will hopefully become a sticky. I could do with some help though so if anyone is interested let me know and then hopefully we could make it answer as many topics as possible.

thought about calling it "Everything you wanted to know about PS3 but were too afraid to ask!"

My initial thoughts on topics I need covering are these:

System Specs
OcUK PSN ID's
Upgrading the PS3's Hard Drive
Changing the PS3's wallpaper
Setting up a US/HK account
Using Lynux on PS3
Using an import PS3 in the UK
Blu-ray (BD) region coding
Bluetooth Headsets

Plus anymore that anyone can think of.

It's a good idea but no one reads stickies

Might want to include a bit on bluetooth headsets, which ones are good/compatible etc.

Good thinking - fixed

there was one, that el started that had a lot of good info in it, but with no search it could be a bit of a bitch to find.

Hmmm, you sure it wasn't full of "PS3 Rulez n 360 Sukz" comments!

Please don't see this as an attack on this thread, but it's very well known we can only have 3 stickies, and I can't see half the board taking too kindly to losing the 360 thread. A merge of the two would work though.

Didn't know you could only have three stickies - there's actually only two there now though!!!

Just done it hope it will help you.

Excellent - I will take a look now.

The part I could really do with help on is Linux - I have never bothered installing it myself so if someone could write a guide with some links it would be very helpful.

Seems like you have it all covered in that word doc you sent me... It's more thourough than I would have done for sure. Why not just post it and apply to make it a sticky. Then as more suggestions come in you could edit. I would reccomend putting a link to the PSN ID thread at the start and also maybe a link to the HDD upgrade vid on youtube - other than that it seems about done.

Just call it "The Official Playstation 3 FAQ & Sticky thread"

Cheers like i said i lost it till this weekend, I should be able to start put a thread together soon if thats ok with the rest of you. I will try to put all the info as links in my thread ie having each page break as a an individual section to link to. Ive lost the PS3 ID page ( no search), Think it will be best to make a new one on the thread anyway as i think its a bit out of date now.

sounds good to me.
