Whilst playing, I'm asked if I want to quit without hitting the home- or power button, regularly during the game. No one has an answer.

It only happens with "bigger" games such as God of War: chains of Olympus; Dante's Inferno, Tekken Dark Ressurrection. I hope Sony has come up with a solution or a working version that could be installed that will solve this annoying issue. I... read full review »

On the 05/08/2010 I boarded a bus which looked full as 10 passengers were standing. I later heard a driver talking to someone that he did not know what we were afraid of as there were lots of seats at the back, only thing is the wild, rude group of adults misbehaving. I then decided to check and I did find a sit just within them. I found a group of 7 scattered all over 16 sits, deliberately making it impossible for anybody needing a sit to use it. They screamed, commenting about my courage to sit, and testing my limits to actually see if I... read full review »

Don't believe anything about what they said, especially don't buy anything with your credit card on their website. All what they say and sell are rubbish. Last month, I went their website, and paid about 4 US dollars to review about their so-called start kit. All are nothing but rubbish and empty talk. Then, I left. When I received my bank statement this month, I found they charged me another 59.95 US dollars without my authorisation or notice me first. When I ask them, nobody give me any clear answer about this. I am really frustrated by this. So, my friends, please remember my lesson and my warnings. regards Jon read full review »

My friend phoned and requested for any vacant flats available, the answer she received from the admin clerk was that there were no open flats at the moment. She was informed to phone in two weeks time. After this I phoned and spoke to the same person, requesting also for any vacant flats, when I was infomed that there were 3 vacant flats available.
