    Me and my brother had the 3DTV, and to me the absolute best feature was playing split screen games on it. One person would see one image, and the person with the glasses would see another. It made split screen games so much better

    • @Theepieguy
      @Theepieguy 3 года назад +16

      Out of curiosity was the screen vibrating on the camera caused by the camera catching the spliced images going back and forth- or would you normally see that in person too? It was kinda like spinning around in a circle and trying to get your bearings but on the screen.

    The PlayStation 3 3-D display basically had a huge flaw its flaw was a faulty firmware that prevented the display from turning on if your display blinks red or just blinks blue with no picture on the screen you need to replace the onboard CMOS chip with the replacement repair kit CMOS chip this requires micro soldering in order to fix the display and fix it permanently it was an issue because Sharp made the display and the display has a cheap ass Firmware on it that prevented the display using its full functionality this is why they recommend replacing the firmware chip and going from the consumer chip which is a pile of junk to a non-consumer chip which is the professional CMOS chip for that display that’s why you now have CMOS repair kits for this display

    To note: There were backwards compatible 80 GB PS3's that shipped with a Dualshock 3. FOr example, the MGS4 Kit in the US did so. the way to tell the difference is the 2 vs 4 USB ports on the front, and whether or not there is a card reader in the system. just above the usb ports on the thick part, that would flip up to reveal a card reader on backwards compatible PS3's.

      @@michaelmayers3622 Right to repair isn't just, or even mainly for, people doing their own repairs. It's mainly for the repair shops who can do component level repair on electronics provided they have access to the parts required. They can fix things that the manufacturer will just tell you to buy a new device if they go bad. Should you have to take your car to the dealer every time you need your oil changed? No, you can go to your local mechanic. The repair stores that exist now have to resort to leaks to get schematics and either back alley connections to obtain parts or scavenging them from parts devices. The pro's need right to repair.

    What I always loved about the PS 3D Display is that when you played 2-player split-screen in supported games, each player could have their own perspectives fully taking up the screen when each player wears a pair of the 3D glasses. The way I understood it was that it would utilize the high refresh rate to flip between each viewpoint very fast while making sure that each person only sees their own screen.
    I saw a demo of it in my local EB Games (French-Canadian GameStop) back in 2011. My 15-year-old self thought it was witchcraft.

    Fun fact, although anyone who's familiar with the PS3 will probably know. A modded PS3 could install games to an external HDD. So if the PS3 accepts the drive, you can dump the disk to the HDD, both internal and external, although external can be a hassle in the case of an NTFS drive. It'll dump the disk into the .iso format, which can be decompiled and modded (check the CoD 4 mod video on my channel for an example). So if he modded the PS3, it would really could have been the Ultimate PS3. Also, it can use a LOT of controllers. Personally I've gotten old dummy gamepads, PS2 (with an adapter), PS4, and even Joy Cons to work with the system. As a matter of fact, it's bluetooth works really well too. I used to use a PS4 controller with mine, which worked great. Only issue was the home button not working, but I bought a cheap PS4 wired controller which works better.

      I really do not understand anything you said, but if you mean Hacking the console, it can be done by falsifying the software with a pendrive and installing Hen from the network, you can download free games and dlcs, the console can emulate ps2, gameboy, Nintendo, super Nintendo, among others. Also install mod menu for different games. The ps4 control can be done even on an original console.

    I have a 1TB SSD in both of my PS3s, however, I think it's limited to 1.5TB, if I'm not mistaken. As far as external drives goes, if it's too large, you can partition the drive and it will be read by the PS3.

    I was given a broken PS3 super slim and I managed to get another year out of it, but the hard drive went, and it keeps corrupting drives. Ironically, the 12GB onboard flash memory works fine and I still play games on it, but it's whooped, the hard drive panel is broke (from raging about the corrupting hard drives) and is rough looking in general.

I was always terrified it would give out so after using it a few months I would sell one. I was a massive fan of 3d and this thing was legit for so small. Really mad 3D is all but dead. I still get the movies from overseas but gets harder and harder to find every year.

      Yes that's the normal way, but what he was saying was the Japanese version is flipped... O to *enter* and X to *close* .
      I think their logic being that X just like using a computer closes things... Actually I don't know why this wasn't the case from the start but we all got used to X to enter so it became the norm.

    • @ram89572
      @ram89572 3 года назад +1

      ​@@FireStarJutsu Yeah it seems to be kind of a universal thing in Japan that O equals Yes/OK and X equals No/Cancel
      My guess would be that product testing in other markets pre-release probably revealed that most people in those other markets would be more accustomed either to X being for Yes/OK and O being for No/Cancel or the placement of the Yes/OK button being the bottom most button in the standard gamepad diamond arrangement. You know before they released the first Playstation they would have been doing market research and bringing in consumers to try out the device and getting feedback from them. This is the most likely explanation I can think of. The other possibility being a close second is that someone with a lot of power in Playstation divisions outside of Japan all came up with the idea that they should swap from how Japan does it just as a personal preference. I think the market research explanation is far more likely.

    This is NOT the ultimate PS3. The ultimate PS3 would be a PS3 Model CECHA00 (the very first model with full backwards compatibility for PS2 games) with a case mod featuring some holes in the bottom at the place where the big main fan is located (the named fan would be replaced by a later revision 19 blade fan instead of the original 15 blade fan). It would have been diassembled fully to replace all heat pads and the thermal paste on the heat spreaders and UNDER it (for that you need to carefully take the heatspreaders off which can be a pain in the a$$). And it would have the most recent 4.88 Custom Firmware in Cobra Mode, webMAN mod and a bunch of other homebrew installed on an internal 1TB drive, including SENenabler to ensure a save access to the PSN . All the games you have on disc could be easily backupped onto an external USB drive and played very easy with the installed webMAN mod from XMB (every game has a size between 5GB and 50GB, so decide the size of the external drive wise). And don't forget accessories like a modern TV or a home cinema sound system, why use a too expensive old PSTV while most modern TVs support 3D? Because it is from this time? Makes no sense to me.
