How to Fix PS3 Problems
by webmaster on Jul.12, 2010, under PS3
As more and more advancements have been made on gaming devices, we seem to encounter more issues. A good example of this would be the PS3. It is said that the PS3 has more problems than its older version, the PS2.
It might surprise you to know that this is not a manufacturer issue, but most likely, a ‘user error.’ It seems that gamers often make things more complicated than they actually were and this results to an increased number of problems and complaints.
If there is something wrong with your PS3, usually, you have the option to troubleshoot it on your own. Most troubleshooting procedures are the same with any other gaming device or console, and there are in fact more than one or two options, and which one you choose would depend on you.
Here are some of the simple guidelines you can use.
1. Cable connections
It is a common problem among gamers and more often than not, such a problem could be fixed by simply checking on whether the cables are properly connected or not. You will sometimes encounter the blinking red lights issue on your PS3 and this can be resolved by ensuring that the cables are plugged in to the console properly. Sometimes, this problem could also be due to damaged cables so when this happens, you need to replace them.
2. Display issues
When using the PS3, a gamer might run into some problems with the display. To fix this, you can try two options: 1. reset the console and, 2. refresh the display. For the first one, all you need to do is reset it to default settings and as to how you can do this, you can find easy-to-follow procedures on the net. For the second option, all you need to do is to press the power button for as long as it takes the console to beep twice.
3. Resources
Troubleshooting guidelines can be found in many websites. You can download them or simply refer to bits and pieces of information found on the internet. The details you get can be overwhelming but of course, you do not need to master them at one time. All you need, really, is basic knowledge on how to fix simple PS3 issues. A note to remember is that there are really times when you need to go to a service center to have your PS3 fixed, especially if the problem pertains to its hardware. Issues such as, when the disc will no longer load will require replacement of important hardware parts and will need to be taken cared of by an expert.
The important thing here is that you know what you can do on your own, and you should also be aware of when it is time to get a hold of an expert technician.

How much do you like your Wii after 6 months?
by webmaster on Aug.03, 2009, under Wii
I’m planning on buying a Wii/Wii fit bundle, and my boss says don’t waste my money, I won’t use it at all after 6 months and I’ll be pissed that I put down so much money. What does everyone think? Do I get it?
PS. I’m not much of a gamer at all, so if anyone has a beef about low quality of Wii games (like my boss), it will be completely lost on me.

Regarding the Netflix code for an extended Gamefly free trial?
by webmaster on Jun.10, 2009, under Gamefly
I have Netflix, and I’ve enjoyed it very much. So, being a gamer, I would like to give Gamefly a try(Rhyme not intended). Anyways, I heard something about a code in Netflix mailers that allows you an extended trial with Gamefly. The thing is, I can’t find it. Does it appear come every once in a while? Is there a way to get it faster? Is Gamefly even any good?

Xbox 360 Arcade – Any good? What is the difference between the different consoles?
by webmaster on Jun.02, 2009, under Xbox 360
I have bought the Xbox 360 Arcade, I really don’t know the difference between them all except the Elite has a bigger hard drive and is black lol!
What I am wondering is what is the difference between the different Xbox 360 consoles apart from the price?
My son is the gamer not me and he seems happy with it, we only want it for playing games not really bothered about HD or Xbox live. Can’t you just tell I am thick at all things like this! Don’t answer THAT!
