Theres not much point my Ps3 sits like 10 inchs from my router but ive never had any problems usin wireless infact i use to get problems usin wireless through my laptop (which is y i went back to wired connection)

Im now on Virgin medias top package of a supposed 50Mb broadband connection i havnt seen any improvements in downloading from the Ps store it seems to download at the speed it did b4 (about 1Mb per 1.5 seconds)

Mc1876313d ago

Some interesting stuff in there.

Real Gambler6313d ago

No need for a fix IP address if you have such a router. You put the PS3 MAC address in the correct field, and voila, your PS3 is in the DMZ.

shikwan6313d ago

I wonder why lan parties (especially those at game conventions) don't use wifi...???

Serious gamers will never opt for wireless, unless it's no other option.

SaiyanFury6312d ago

I don't know, my PS3 is about 50 feet from my n-band router and I've never had any troubles connecting to it. Then again, my router does have uPnP enabled easily. I get online very easy provided my $hitty internet connection doesn't crap out on me. Damned DSL....

madpuppy6312d ago

I have a linksys N router and I have never had a problem, matter of fact I brought MY PS3 across the street to my friends house and the darn thing still connected to my wireless network, we were able to stream a movie from my computer also. I couldn't believe it!

prunchess6312d ago

I've just upgraded to this router from a Netgear wgr 614v7. The difference I've noticed in having a router with uPnP and a far better range is astronomical. Go for the best wireless router available. It's worth it!

SaiyanFury6312d ago

Yep the D-Link DIR-655 is the same one I'm using, I even have an n-Band card in my PC to take advantage of it. Damn thing works great, never have had to reset it even once.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle23d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde30d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy30d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12530d ago (Edited 30d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga31d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199231d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga30d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac30d ago (Edited 30d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman30d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger30d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box31d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion30d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7231d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7531d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit31d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14931d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7731d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
