PS3 compatibility issues?
Hopefully someone can help me out.
I just got my PS3 hooked up today, and when I try to boot of God Of War or Shadow Of Colossus (These are the only 2 PS2 games I have), the screen just flickers. Nothing ever comes up.
I can boot the PS3 game Resistance with no issues.
I have my PS3 connected via HDMI to a JVC 56 HDILA with 1080P output.
Liver N Onions....HELP!

Who knows - could be a different problem altogether. Is your FW 1.31?

In theory my TV can accept all signals including 480i. According to the manufacture specs.
Last night I hooked up the PS3 using the plain composite cables (yuck), and booted up the PS2 games. They would play this way with no issues, but they looked horrible.
I do not have a set of component cables for the PS3, but I will be checking Target out as soon as they are open.
Question - Can I achieve 1080P with component cables?

For video games, yes, but only if your TV accepts a 1080p input over component. However, if it's truly a 1080p display, it may deinterlace a 1080i signal anyway.

Loving Resistance.......
Also getting the chance to play some older games. I haven't had a Playstation for about 4 years.
