Couple of things...
Group the user names and the list together... for instance, don't have a space between "ktr" and psn name. Also use royal blue, rather than sea green for the names.
GT:HD has been caned, so you dont want that ;).
Make the Member list slightly smaller size, and add a member count.
And finally, we need a banner.
edit: much better!

What was wrong with the old PS3 Clubhouse?
I'll hopefully be getting my PS3 in 6 or 9 days, I'll say my details then.
What was wrong with the old PS3 Clubhouse?
The old clubhouse has Linkin as the thread starter, who is very busy and no longer has a ps3.

competition is overrated. the last thing we want is a bunch of different formats to choose from confusing us all. this way all movies come out on one format. in the end it is better for us.

I was thinking ab out selling the brand new Sixaxis I got in a deal with my PS3 console and spending the $10 or $15 (AUD) more to get a Dual Shock 3. If I got one now I would have to get one from Hong Kong on eBay, but that means I could get a white one which may never come out in Australia. Will it work perfectly on my Australian 40gb Console? Is there ANY disadvantages at all of getting one from Hong Kong, or should I sell 6axis now and get DS3 when it comes out in Australia in a few months.
How good are the Dual Shock 3's? I really like how light 6axis is, how heavy is DS3?

I wonder how much later it will be in Australia compared to U.S? Maybe it's not long with Sony stuff, I'm just used to Nintendo.
I thought with white, it would be easy to see difference between my Sixaxis that came with console (I know it says it on front), and it would be something different, because chances are, you will never be able to get white in Australia. My brother got a white PS2 controller from Japan and they never came out in Australia.

It shipped from California on the 13th, so it should be here Monday or Tuesday. I just need to check out the list of compatible games. I have Folklore so I can at least test it with that, but I really bought it for MGS4 and the newer games. Since it is only $10 more than a normal Sixaxis controller and I needed an extra controller for my brother anyway, I thought this would be the best option.
EDIT: It came today.

They can make fake ones (knock offs) in like China and stuff and then sell them at these little corner markets, but you won't find any of those online or any major Japanese retailer. If you've ever been to Mexico and see a lot of fake rolexs at these little shady markets. However, rest assured this won't happen to you.
Cermaic White won't get dirty at all, no more than the Black.

the ps3 eye is a pretty interesting gizmo. and is really kinda useless by itself, but a fun add-on if you are bored. the games are cheap and very trippy but get old quickly. i like that you can use it during burnout and game developers are starting to take its potential into greater account. we will see. my next purchase in a couple of weeks will be the bluetooth headset so that when i get vegas 2 i will be able to communicate.

:toast:
So many people are waiting on this, very exciting news!
This will be AWESOME. I'm really looking forward to Home, and the new XMB features will be good too, that was one thing that I was thinking of when selling my 360 to get PS3, although it was major, now i will have in-game chatting anyway, :):):)

The PS3 is ready for 2160p:
Reasoning:
-Some guy on here named 7 was saying that at some sony press conference somewhere hey said that PS3 could output at 4K resolution, or 2160p, or 4096x2160 pixels progressive scan.
-Hitachi (or one of those Asian companies) is releasing (or already relaesed?) a 100GB Blu-Ray disk. They said that a simple firmware update would allow a Blu-Ray player to see the 4 layers of a 100GB disk. 200GB 8 layer disks are being tested and presumably could be supported through a firmware update.
-I Believe a feature length 4K movie would fit on a 100GB or 200GB Blu-Ray disk.
-The CELL Broadband Engine would have no trouble decoding a 4K video feed. As in playing back a 4K MPEG-4 or VC1 file.

I just got a ps3 but its making a high pitched noise about 1-2mins after I turn it on... I bought it second hand and it was working fine at the previous owners place. Its a year old 60gb model no warranty left anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong? I tried plugging it in at another house and it was still doing this also tried removing the ground on the wall outlet.. well Im going to wait for my backup AVR/ups to arrive before I got about sending it in for servicing.
I just gave Drakes Fortune a run, and I know this game is going to draw me in. I only bought the ps3 for GT:Prologue and 5, but I got this game with it and decided to give it a test run for a while and am pretty impressed though I havent gotten far.

What TV are you using? Maybe it's just something that will never actually affect you other then the sound? Would you pay just not to have that sound? How loud is it? Was the console cheap enough that it would still be worth it after you got it fixed?
I got Uncharted with my console as well (a week and a half or so ago), and it is SO addictive. I played it for like 35 minutes and thought it seemed like a pretty good game. Then I had another go and then it was night time, lol the day just seemed to go I was having to much fun.

humm first time I plugged it in at home the buzzing was coming from the tv and console, but now I have an hdmi cable so now its only from the console and now it only starts up after about 1-2 mins of being on.. reminds me Im going to turn off my basement fridge and see if there electrical interference with that..
Well the ps3 buddy said 400 is ok, but I gave him 420.. it was working fine at his house. I didnt drop it or anything on my way home but it was in a bag as I walked home.
I'm hoping it will only cost me around $100 to have it repaired at a local playstation repair shop.. my guess is that it could be a capacitor or the psu is going bad.. he did live in a very old building/downtown.
Ohwell main thing is I'll get it sorted out, hopefully it dont blow up on me when Im running it for a few minutes lol.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is awesome so far. I never would have thought it was this good. The demo didn't do this game justice. I am 65% done, and have loved each and every minute.

Also, MGS4 may have a release data of June 12th, and the word is that there is gonna be a MGS4, 80gb PS3, and DS3 bundle.
All this info is coming from a retailers only Sony conference.
Its been confirmed that a new 80GB (with BC) bundled with MGS4 and DS3 is coming, hopefully around June 12th. It will cost $500.

CONCLUSION
While we can't definitively name one console as having better multi-platform releases across the board, there's a clear winner among these four games: PlayStation 3 beats the Xbox 360 handily. Call of Duty 4 plays nearly the same on both systems, differing only in superior online integration on PlayStation 3. With Devil May Cry 4, the game is all-around better on PlayStation 3 (despite the horrendous installation process). Burnout Paradise emerges as decidedly better on Sony's system thanks to EA Criterion's decision to make it the leading version of the game. The exact opposite is true for Assassin's Creed where Xbox 360 beats out its PlayStation 3 counterpart visually.
Judging by what we've seen with these recent games, you may be better off picking up PlayStation 3 versions of high-profile multi-platform games for the time being. The notion that PlayStation 3 ports are inherently inferior to Xbox 360 simply doesn't hold water these days. Some games do perform worse on Sony's console--Blacksite: Area 51 has been plagued with performance issues, for instance, and The Orange Box suffers from groan-inducing load times and chugging framerates.
These issues are slowly being addressed, though, as many publishers are starting to churn out multi-platform releases with an eye for the PlayStation 3. LucasArts recently announced an initiative to make the PS3 their leading platform for development, joining a growing wave of developers seeking to improve multi-platform games heading to Sony's console. With any luck, this movement will result in better performance for all gamers, Xbox 360 and PS3 alike. For now though, just enjoy fragging terrorists, crashing cars, and slicing demons in half on your PlayStation 3.

I dont think you should pre-order.
It is kinda pointless to do this these days.
Most games never outsell anymore since there are soooo many stores that carry them now.
Plus, they usual have specials on games the first week they come out (like something free or $5 off).
So if you pre-order you usually wind up paying more.

I rang customer support and they said if it does it again within the next few days I can get a replacement.

I don't think it would be something to do with the power, because with the PS3, it's only it that is affected, nothing else so far as I know, and with my wii, it's something to do with the disc drive, I have to eject the disk until it says "please re-insert disc" and then put it back in for it to work. My little brother has a Wii coming from the same power point and so far as I know it doesn't have anything wrong with it.

As far as Twisted Metal, the first two or three games were alright, but I wasnt a huge fan of them. They are fun though in short bursts, so Im assuming it will stay the same fun level but with alot sweeter graphics. I like the clown though (sweet tooth or whatever) He rocked.

well i did drop it but it was like a 2 foot fall. i highly doubt that broke it. so it works ok most of the time but its like the left analog stick is super sensitive.

is it really worth the added cost to get a 7200 RPM drive over a 5400 RPM drive for the PS3 ?

Sure. Mainly because your games will load faster.

Sure. Mainly because your games will load faster.
i was just told that a guy who did benchmarks says there was very little difference in load times with a 7200 drive tho. check this out...
http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=2000029
so basically about a 5-10% speed increase loading games and transfering files. but the price increase is dramatic between a 7200 drive and 5400 drive. its $150 for a 200 gig 5400 and $180 for the 7200 drive. and no drives bigger than 200 gigs for 7200.
Well that forum post clearly says...
if you want the extra performance, go 7200...
but if you want higher capacity, stick with 5400...

yea, but my question is, is it really worth it? im fine with the load times on my current 80 gig 5400 drive so i dont think getting a 7200 drive will really make any difference to me. plus i can get a 320 gig 5400 drive for 160 bucks.

Depends on if you had wait times. Right now, I dont think my load times are bad at all, seeing as most of the game is ran from the DVD, at least, Im led to believe that.

yea and it seems like the bigger 320 gig 5400 drives arent slower than the smaller 80 gig 5400 drives. and i guess all the newer games install less to the PS3 i think.

According to this article, it is not worth the cost at all, unless you transfer movies/music alot: http://www.gamepro.com/sony/ps3/games/features/138288.shtml

Doubt it. There is already a hate over the installs from the ps3 community (mostly against Capcom). I bet devs are gonna avoid the publicity and not do required installs any more.

People complain about installs and people complain about load times. The only thing that can speed up load times is larger installs.

It was something to do with our power why PS3 was turning off, we had an under voltage due to a corroded mains switch.
I wonder if the PS3 turning off so much during copying files off hard disk etc.. would have hurt it? I would like to get it replaced under the 30 days and I don't think they penalize you if there isn't anything wrong with it, but it would just seem a bit bad. What do use think I should do?

Yesterday afternoon half the power just went completely off and the electricity people were here till around 10:30 PM fixing it (the emergency ones), it didn't cost anything.
So you think it wouldn't seem bad if I took it back when it probably works perfectly? It is from Harvey Norman which is a pretty big store in Australia.
I'd just be worried they'd charge me if it worked perfectly.

PS3 is AWESOME!!
The Echochrome demo is out on Japan PSN...
The demo is a more beefy 37mb, with the only discerning difference being that it’s in 1080p and has a saucy female voice-over.
Controls translated:
Left or Right Stick: Spins perspective.
Hold R1: Spins perspective faster.
Hold L1 : Activates motion sensor to spin perspective.
Press Triangle: Goes into “thinking mode” (You can still spin perspective while mannequin stops.)
Hold X: Puppet walks faster.
Square: Snap the edges together to get a clean path connection.
Select: Toggles timer/control instructions.
Start: Pause.

well im in the process of installing YDL !!! so far its a very simple procedure. i backed up all ps3 content onto an 8 gig flash drive. then i formated the ps3 drive allocating 10 gigs of space of 'other os.' i switched the default from PS3 to 'other os' and reboot the system with the YDL in the drive. now it is installing. i bought a cheap ass usb keyboard/mouse from bestbuy to do the install and mess around with it. then im gonna transfer them up to my PC which currently has an 8 year old keyboard and 4 year old mouse. ill report in on how things turn out! and for those of you who have already done this, anything i should be aware of?

well first of all you have to buy YDL 6 for 120 bucks. but you can get YDL 5 for free. however thus far YDL 5-6 does not support WPA. so im not about to switch to WEP encryption when a 8 year old can hack in. so im waiting for a wifi card for my PC and i will put my router downstairs where the PS3 is and just use it wired. that should happen on monday. there is a workaround for WPA/WPA2 PSK on YDL but it is simply too much trouble for a console. so once im wired ill install it again. the OS itself is ok. it looks decent on the 1080p 42 inch tv. this is more for experimental purposes but is a nice little project to keep me occupied.

Motorstorm 2 looks awesome. They finally put in split screen multiplayer. It really makes me mad when they remove this feature that should be included (in some way) into every multiplayer game. My brother and I love playing video games together, but we could not play Motorstorm together.

I don't think they make external powered ones.
The fan on the ps3 is pretty powerful, and it will throttle up if getting hot, so if your unit is running at full fan speed all the time, then look into external cooling.

if it is a heat issue then there is something either wrong with the fan, the heat sensor or the actual faulty chips. i highly doubt the last two possibilities. it is in a nice location where it gets a lot of cool fresh air. hell i never turn the heat about 65 in the house.

been known too, but I dont know if I Actually believe it. It helps pull heat away from two places and brings in fresh cool air from alot better. I actually think them to be some of the best. I would necessarily call it drawing power from the console. More like drawing power from the wall and then sharing with the console :D. Mine works fine on both my 360 and ps3. Never had a problem from either. Of course, I also got the base cooler with the extra storage compartments on my 360 :D

A couple of days ago Motorstorm froze for me. I'd been playing for about an hour and a half and it just froze at the start of a race, the music was still playing and when I ejected the disc it stopped, then I put it back in and the music started again.
I'm probably going to import a dual shock 3 from Hong Kong for AUD$66.98. I sold my brand new sixaxis I got in a deal with my console for $65, and considering the sixaxis is $79.95 new here $66.98 is pretty alright, but I spose u loose warranty.
I'll also buy one more game, I was thinking of importing COD4 from U.S. coz it's AUD$100 here and it's way cheaper there, and coz of the exchange rate at the moment, it'd only cost me like $58, but then I saw that it and motorstorm are the only 2 games that matter with the online point of view and it connecting to overseas servers. What game should I buy? I was thinking Devil May Cry 4?

Can you plz change my thing from 2x Sixaxis controllers to 1x, coz I sold it to get Dual shock 3 but havn't got it yet. Also could you put a space between the BT135 and bluetooth, and take uncharted out of currently played games. :) thanks.

sweet, welcome bogmail.
@easy yeah that would be awesome. honestly though, to me, that ps3 eye thing is too damn gimicky and something Im not interested in. However, if it could do video....

yea, it is defin a gimmick. i bought it because i was screwing around with the weird games and figured it would be kinda cool to show off. i havnt used it in months. but i will keep it because companies are working developing some interesting games and things for it.

i was trying to think of some cool ideas. i dont know why they could do something like a side scroller where it knows you are and you have to kill enemies or something.

R6V2 is ok. of course ive only played it for 20 minutes on single player and 20 minutes on multiplayer. the controls are fairly intuitive. the graphics are nothing to brag about. i didnt play the first vegas on console so i cant really compare. i played it on the pc and really liked it. playing FPS on console just doesnt feel natural to me. anyway, im gonna play it a lot tomorrow and friday and see how i like it then.
New firmware coming out soon.

Just to let you guys know that the Meta Gear Solid Essential Collection was just released.
This is a re-release of MGS1 - 3.
Info can be found here at gamestop: http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=281885
Just a note and it might be a rumor, but this was a silent launch and each store did not get a lot of copies (from what I heard its only 3 - 4 copies per store), so if you want it get it now :)
EDIT: I know its a PS2 game, but might keep us busy until the PS3 one comes out.
Defiantly worth the 30 bucks no matter if it is a ps2 game.
:rockout:

This is one reason why I like having Backward Compatability.
Unfort. MGS2 and MGS3 wont work on the 40GB PS3, but MGS1 will :)
