hey guys,

I got a ps3, aus PAL version, and i want to get the uncut version of gta4, I know they are all region free etc etc, but someone told me it MIGHT not work on every tv, i have a fairly standard tv unit, nothing crash hot, good size, maximum 5 years old. my question is,

would it have a problem playing the game on that t.v?

in future ill be buying a massive lcd tv would i have a problem with my lcd playing region free games too?

thanks guys.. appreciate any feedback

It isn't the tv that has region problems, its the DVD player - in this case the PS3. It SHOULD work, I'm not 100% sure but i think games dont have regions , unlike DVD movies.

Incorrect. The TV must support NTSC format. Australia runs on PAL but you should be right mate, most TV's these days support both PAL and NTSC formats.

The PS3 games are 100% region free, no worries there. The blu-rays however are region encoded.

it should work fine

I dont know why you would buy, the only thing that is different is how you interact with the hookers and apparently one cut scene.

Why dont you save your $70 odd and go see a real hooker

As mentioned your TV needs to support NTSC but most TV's do now and have done so for years. If unsure there may be a sticker on the back of the TV that lists model number and such that should also state if it is PAL/NTSC.

Only difference between Aus and USA versions so far is the hookers. I haven't found this missing footage yet.

well, you may be right, but i actually went to buy the aus version, and i asked the guy behind the counter whats the difference, he told me aus version is 1gb less than the usa version, and knowing ps3 games are REALLY small games for some reason... i opted for the us version.

does anyone agree with me on that? i finished need for speed pro street in no time, call of duty 4 in a week, fifa 08 u can only play for 5 years... and virtua tennis is piss easy. im not a freak i only play after work for max 1 hour...

and for the guy who told me about the 1gb difference.. well i dont know if its true.. he had huge glasses and lost a sale for telln me that so who knows.. thanks for all the replies by the way!

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
