If memory serves, when your PS3 is in standby mode, hold down the power button on the console until it beeps a several times. Hope this helps.

I hear ya. I love playing co-op games with friends/family, and since I don't have an outrageously fast internet connection in rural Montana, split screen or same screen (LOTR:Return of the King type) games will have to work. Unfortunatley developers assume EVERYONE is online and don't put local multiplayer into many games anymore. But to answer the question; yes. I still play older co-op games, and quite enjoy them, we need more co-op. Always more co-op. :)>

28 in April.

I haven't counted games recently, but to estimate; 30 PS2, 8 PS3.

I own a PS3 and would like to play COD 4 online. I prefer to play w/ or against guys that I know personally (soI canrehash whenI fragged them several times in a row), and in this case, they own 360's. My question is this, is it possible to play online cross-platform? If so, where and how? I would be the only one using a PS3, the rest in my group own 360's.

Any info helps, thanks

I know what you mean. Last week I was in Gamestop and this couple came in looking for a Wii (yea, right, you'll find one of those), well of course they didn't have one, so the knappy-headed saleman was singing the praises of the 360. Stuff like: more games, better games, more exclusives, Halo 3 (which didn't really bother me cause it's a pretty good game). What really got me angry was how the PS3 had no good qualities, and the 360 had no faults (red ring of death?!?!). Now if this couple looking for a game system for there kids bought the 360, they deserve whatever probelms they end up w/. I personally bought the 60 GB PS3, becasue I still have about 50 PS2 games that I would still like to play.

My point is: when spending $400 on a game system, you owe it to yourself to do some research and find out what your getting into. And if your job includes selling game systems, you OWE it to the public at large to provide them w/asmuch information asthey will need to make an informed decision, not force your own opinions on them. People aren't stupid.

There, thanks for letting me rant.
