How to get the Dual Shock 3 to Work with Resistance Fall of Man?
Categories: consoles, video games
Grrr….. Why does Sony make simple things so complicated?
I’ll start with the answer to the titular question. After firing up the PS3 with your new Dual Shock 3 (DS3) controller:
start Resistance Fall of Man (RFoM)- choose “Multiplayer”
- choose “online game” - the following notice will appear:
“An update to Resistance: Fall of Man is available. This update is required for online play. Download update?
- choose ‘yes’
- exit the game when the download is complete
- start it up again.
You’ll finally have 10 year old technology in your sparkly new PS3 - yeah!!!
Who came up with this clever idea? How are people that want to play the single player campaign offline supposed to know this?
Now for the back-story.

The New Playstation Store
Categories: consoles, video games
The new PS3 Playstation store is a much needed improvement over the older store.
The Old Playstation Store:
The old store (pictured to the left) booted slowly, was unresponsive, had tiny print and was almost unusable. It relied on a ‘mouse’ like interface with a pointer that needed to be moved around the screen with the PS3 controller’s analogue stick. It was very difficult to use and imprecise.
The New Playstation Store:
The new store boots up faster- Thankfully, the mouse-pointer interface is gone
- The main menu now presents a grouped items column on the left
- Selecting an item group brings up a much easier to read sub-menu (see the “New Releases” submenu below).
- The submenu has a navigable list of possible selections on the right
- Selection details show up in a big, easier to read, panel on the left.
- Everything is faster and crisper (more pics on joystiq here).
