Anyone played Siren: Blood Curse? If so, thoughts?
I picked up a ps3 yesterday -- mostly because of the news of the ICO/Shadow of the Colossus HD and Silent Hill 2/3 HD Collections (greatest horror game). Anyways, I've missed out on the Siren series which is a shame because a good bit of Team Silent had their hand in creating these games.

I played Resident Evil 5 last night. The Graphics were sweet but I couldn't get use to the camera angles. I quit after about 15-20 minutes.
I don't think i have the attention span for games like that. It's either FPS, Racing or sports for me I guess.

So I'm thinking my PS3 is dead (see http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=2298 ). Has anyone had this happen?

$150 for Sony to fix or you can search craigslist. Here in San Diego there is a place called SD Mods who does it for $80, but the guys on craigslist do it for $40, but that's a huge YMMV. |

I'm not sure what I want to do. I don't want to spend $150 to fix an almost 6 year old 20Gb PS3, but I also don't want to lose all my stuff. Also, my COD MW3 disc is in the machine and won't eject.

For the stuck disc, try turning the power off on the back, and power flip it back on while you hold the eject button. If that doesn't work, smash the ****er open and get your disc.

So another quick question...are there any dramatic hardware improvements in the newer models? Faster CPU, memory, wireless, etc.?

* The same PS3 you know in a much slimmer package. The chassis is thinner vertically and horizonatally. However instead of a rectangle it is almost a square, as it is much deeper than the previous system. It’s also 32% smaller and 36% lighter. * It consumes 34% less power than the previous model. * The touch-sensitive buttons for power and eject are gone, replaced with ACTUAL buttons (depressable keys that aren’t touch sensitive but must be pressed). The back standby power switch has also been removed. * The PS3 Slim is now a 120GB model, up from 80GB. * The PlayStation logo has been changed, no more Spider-Man font! * You don’t have the ability to install a second operating system on this model. * There is no backwards compatability so the system won’t play PS2 games. However it will play some PS1 games on disc. And, naturally, you can download games from the PlayStation Store, including classic PS1 titles. * You can still upgrade the HDD with one of your own. If you can figure out how. * There is no IR port added. Though you can use the Logitech Harmony remotes, a $60 adapter that translates IR commands to Bluetooth. * There are no ports for Compact Flash Cards, Memory Sticks or SD Cards. It does have USB ports though. * The system seems to play Blu-ray movies, DVDs, and CDs just the same as before. You can also stream media from other PCs or DLNA-capable media servers for instant action. * However the disc drive is louder than before when playing games (but not movies or Blu-rays). * In the box you get: the console, a single Dual Shock 3 controller, USB cable (for charging the controller), AC power cord, and composite AV cable. There are no bundled games in this version of the PS3. * The system cannot be stood vertically. It’s so skinny it’ll fall over too easily. Though Sony will apparently sell a stand for it. * The system lacks the shine and polish of the original PS3. Instead it has a matte finish. This means that it doesn’t suck up fingerprints like there’s no tomorrow. However some people think it makes it look “cheap and plastic-y, like a toy.” Personal preference should come into play though, as some people prefer no fingerprints to a prettier design.
