Clever sods, my local GAME store said there is a bundle but ALSO with GT which I don't want, so after all of this, they don't even have a simple bundle, fools. 350 quid with GT :| if it was GTA:IV I wouldn't mind but NOOOO we can't do that... TWO good games?! NOOO. Oh yeah and he doesn't have any info on potential better versions of the PS3 (apparently).

I know, it seems that dominating the exchange rate is not enough recognition to actually get equal rights to other countries, especially in terms of released (in general). Btw, I could get the PS3 40GB and MGS4 for 340 quid, then again, it costs 350 with Grid so yeah. The reason I am annoyed is that I would have bought the 60GB by now, considering ALL of the limitations the 40GB has BUT when they took it out way back in December I would have thought they would at least bring a better version out by now. The BC is not a big deal for me but still.... principles, also there are no card readers, 2 USB (not 4) and 20GB less, it really annoys me, I might contact Game now for some info.

Right, I'm getting REALLY impatient now. I have been persistently tracking PS3 price drops or new versions coming out; if there is no sign of a new and BETTER version of PS3 coming out soon then that is IT! I will get any bundle in the UK which includes MGS4, I really want to go out today and purchase it, anyone know of any potential bundles? Maybe with special bonuses? I tried game.net and hmv.co.uk and there are no bundles, however in the last hour or so, MGS4 was included in a bundle with Grid, I guess things are looking a LITTLE up...........?

Okay, so I bought this modified PC back in December and it's quite good with a 50 pound(s) sound card etc. x-fi and creative all inputted into the PC.

One problem though, no sound. You ask, how did I put up without sound for all these months, well the sound works on the headfones.

When I went holiday, my cousin (computer geek) told me I may need some sort of disk etc. when i told him the context. So basically I have this sound system that has been with me for a while now and it did not work and I did not previously install it on other computers so i am oblivious to any disks.

My sister eventually took the sound system for her MP3 (GRR) but I decided to go out today and buy a nice Sony sound system for 30 pounds, assuming it would come with some sort of a disk.

To my surprise it did not come with a disk and I was reluctant about the prospect. It told me very simple instructions which I followed willingly. So now it is simply plugged into relavent connections (PC/socket etc.) and all the lights are on (however, no internal installations have been processed... apparently). You can even slightly hear the bass when inputting the wire(s), however I'm stuck with the SAME problem. No sound.

What the hell do I do?!?! I'm not a computing genius so I'm guessing maybe a "Sound driver download" like the printer or something?! Please, people guide me on what I must do.

Thank you, much appreciated.

I might go Game today and swap a lot of gear to try get the Black PSP Slim & Lite (Worth 130 pounds). I have a PSP "Giga Pack" (Black) from like 2005 with 5 games; Fifa Street 2, Killzone: Liberation, Tekken: Dark Resurrection, GTA: Vice City Stories and MGS: Portable Ops. I would like to keep MGS if I can help it, but remember I have another like 10 PS2 games I won't mind trading, do you think I can trade these successfuly for the new PSP black and GOW: Chains of Olympus? I'm wondering if I can trade ONLY the PSP (so without the giga, HELL without the whole box) and about 4 games (maybe more) or do I HAVE to give the box and features with PSP?

Thanks a lot, that's double good news. 80% of my desire to purchase a PS3 is for MGS4 itself; I've been an avid fan for years but I guess I'll have to buy GTA4 and other games a little late. Thanks for that it's good news, although still not exactly a meagre wait :S and probably longer than "summer" (you know how these monopolistic businesses can be) and no sorry I don't go to that "jellyfish" web site, in fact I'm not that fond of "ruffryders" any more, I had a phase when I was like 11 and this file has just survived I guess :P Thanks again.

Right, I'm sick and tired of waiting now and I'm becoming quite impatient. As soon as Sony, very wisely (NOT!), discontinued the production of 60GB in the UK I've been reluctant to purchase the inferior version, mainly due to principles. So, I've been asking and asking IF another version (better) will be released but now I'm asking WHEN, because I have acknowledged that there must be an inevitability of new and superior versions being released. So, I acknowledge it was quite a dumb question and I should have had more certainty, so for those of you "researchers", could you please confirm the release date of 80GB, 100GB or even 60GB (ANYTHING BETTER!!!) in Europe (UK specifically), if not then please give me some kind of speculation; ANY KIND! Thank you.

Basically, I haven't touched my PSP in about 10-12 months because it has not been working when I insert a UMD game inside. From what I know, it lets me browse through music and everything else, but it seems that whenever I place a disc inside the PSP, it makes "scratchy" noises and doesn't load the game, in turn freezes. I had this same problem a couple of times before this current one and only had to leave my dusty PSP for 2-3 months and it somehow revived but now it's been almost a year and it is still not working, I'm guessing this eventual result is chronical. Could anybody suggest what I should do? This was bought late 2005 as a "giga pack" version from GAME. I tried calling Sony today but was held for about 5 minutes and had to eat my breakfast so I might try sometime again. Do you think they will offer me some kind of exchange? If so, do you recon I can convince them enough to exchange the new "Slim & Lite" one for this one? Possibly with around £10-£20?

Note: The PSP (appearance-wise) is in mint condition, the performance is ok, apart from this core problem and a loose game inserter thingy. Also note that this problem was ever so natural and I have only dropped this PSP once, very lightly back in 2005, I did not provoke this problem in any way shape or form.

Thank you.
