I am thinking of getting a PS3 so I was wondering.
I have my 360 going in to my Samsung Surround system with a digital cable.
Is the PS3 cable the same as the 360 one so I can just switch it around to get the sound.
It looks the same but I just wanted to check as I want to get the sound through it.
I have the Samsung HT-X200 system.
Thanks in advance.
or indeed do I have any other options?
I already use aux 1 and aux 2 for PC and TV.
The HDMI is going into TV from sound system.
I use a digital optical cable for my 360 and ps3 into my ss amp.
Like this:

Just swap them over, works fine.
Hope that helps!
p.s. You just have to fiddle with the sound settings on the ps3 to make sure it's outputting the correct stuff (that confused me for a while...lol!).
yes, it is.
I use the same cable for my ps3 and 360....
if it looks something looks something like this then you've just saved your self a hearty £3.99 my friend....
Yeah guys I am sure thats the one OK.
That saves a load of hassle I will just have to swap it over to the PS3 or vica versa.
Thanks guys.
look who's ready to jump ship now :)
Got it Sunday Tea and am up and running. :)
The little one has spent most of today on home so I cant get near it myself.
Downloaded a couple of Demos Last night.
RFOM is Yuk lol.
Drakes fortune looks sweet I have to say though.
reask Is my tag I think lol.
Still getting used to it.
Now I ccan bitch all 3 systems. :)
Congratulations on becoming a true gamer. I'm really excited for you man. I hope you plan on using your PS3 more than G1GA and Psychotext. You'll find the PS3 exclusive library to be 100 times better than the 360. I hope you have a 1080p set too because unlike the 360 dash board the XMB runs in glorious high res 1080p! I recommend you getting games like pixel junk monsters, WipeOut HD, and Warhawk from the PS store. Also now that the video store is in Europe check that out as well. When Europe gets its PSN cards I'll get you a €50 one so you can splurge a little on me as a welcome to PSN gesture.
Games I recommend on Disc:
Uncharted Drakes Fortune
Uncharted 2 Among Thieves
Metal Gear Solid 4
Killzone 2
LittleBigPlanet
God of War collection (2 games on 1 Blu-ray disc)
Demon Souls
Sing Star (your daughter will love it)
Heavenly Sword
Lair
Infamous
Resistance Fall of Man
Resistance 2
Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
Ratchet and Clank Future: ACIT
Socom: Confrontations
Folklore
Motor Storm
Motor Storm: Pacific Rift
The Eye of Judgment
Hot Shots Golf 5
Time Crisis 4
Genji: Days of the Blade
Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom
Haze
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
RFOM still holds up BTW, way better than Perfect Dark Zero does.
Thanks for the heads up Tea.
Yes I will be using it I am just getting into the drake demo atm.
I might pick up killzone 2 during the week.
I will be using both consoles as I like the exclusives on both.
Good list of games there so happy days all round.
I actually use a bravia 32 inch so the set up for me is pretty ok through the hdmi.
ok cool I'll send you over some 1080p gaming wallpapers. If I didn't have 5 people on my share games list I'd let you get all the games you wanted from my account. I wanna see you start trophy whoring. It's not too late to catch up and pass me or Cort :)
What a horrible list:
Lair, Folklore, The Eye of Judgment, Time Crisis 4, Genji, Untold Legends, Haze.
Avoid at all costs.
I was actually going down the games I have in my library that were exclusive. So yea I had to mention those too. Folklore isn't bad, Lair either after the controller patch. Eye of Judgment is unique, Time Crisis is old time kid fun in the arcade memories (Chucky cheese anyone :) Genji is....is.....is....GIANT CRAB BOSS OK!, Untold legends is still in the plastic, I haven't opened it since launch day. Haze was.....$5 new :) Can't beat a $5 brand new PS3 game even if it was Vampire Rain :(.....I feel sick now.
"Folklore"
That game is actually pretty good if you don'r rush it.
As for the rest; no idea I only played the Haze demo which I though was alright, but then I find shooters mostly bland pap. Haze has the advantage of being set in a tropical (ie colourful) environment and instead of being set in some grey in a brown land with black skies.
Actually playing the infamous demo atm.
It is OK actually but I am stuck on this bit where you have to get energy by clicking l2 I think and holding l1.
He has some pretty cool moves.
Haze I heard is crap so probably not.
Finished the drake demo and it is pretty good actually so that ones on the list.
Looking forward to mgs4 and kz2 as well I really liked the look of those games.
BTW tea its about time you got in to the 360 as you would really enjoy it. :)
Yeah trophies are next on the list.
The missus will divorce me. :(
I just have to pass this UK euro punk on my fiends list in trophies first then I'm telling you I'm going to be on my 360 everyday for at least 6 hours.
Right now I'm on the hunt for original box art 360 exclusives, not those damn ugly platinum hits cases. So far I've got the original Prey, Gears of War 2, Halo 3, Too human, and PGR4 factory sealed just sitting on my self. I have so many games to play that I need to make a schedule. I already played Halo 3 and Gears 2 before so I just need to sink my teeth into the others.
But, don't worry man I will be on 360 soon. I sign in from time to time just to watch you and G1GA play MW2 and take bets as to which one of you guys will stop playing first....you always lose Reask :)
P.S. Don't worry about a divorce, you've got a PS3 now bro! All the hot chics will want to come over and play some SingStar.
Lmao.
Spec ops is too cruel for me and online is like forget it.
Still I finished it on veteran with auto aim off so not too bad. :)
Just to update my online user id.
Its actually reask1.
Someone else had already taken reask it appears.
