Yeah, brilliant Ray, that really is ace. If he's giving it away give Kym a shout, it'd save him a few quids. In other news, my Ratchet and Clank came on friday, our set-up is about a week away yet though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapperlin Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Divx support coming to a PS3 near you........soon- http://threespeech.com/blog/?p=718 http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/news/S...%20News/817096/ Awesome news. On another point have any PS3 users tried linux on their ps3 yet? I put ubuntu on this morning, few teething problems but working a charm now still lots to learn as its quite different to windows but deffo worth while.

ai_Droid Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Remarkable coincidence right after MS licenses Divx too eh? But yeah, great news, makes it much more viable as a media centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sausages Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Compressed Video files. Similar to how MP3s are compressed music files. I'm not too up to speed on it all, but most of the videos I obtain (from my corrupt uncle) are Xvids, which are I think are different. Backward names confuse me, but Xvid compatibility would sell me on any of the new consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plectrum Infusion Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 DIVX is, essentially, a porn format. Obviously I need to get a PS3 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only stickler might be sound, most divx/xvid are mp3 so they'll be fine, but ac3 won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinkydevil Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 So what were first impressions, is it as good as it looks? I'm still to setup my US account to get the demo - but some good reviews of UDF coming in: IGN 9.1 - Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is the most fun I've had in a videogame this year. Say what you will about the PS3, but Uncharted isn't just a standout for Sony -- it's a standout for gaming as a whole. http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/834/834931p2.html EDIT: Eurogamer 9.0 - Truly, Uncharted is the first game I've seen to date that makes me wonder if it could be done on the Xbox 360, and as a huge admirer of the software line-up on Microsoft's system, that's saying a lot. http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?artic...7533&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
