If anyone is interested, in the US at least, Amazon's Gold Box deals has a year subscription to PlayStation Magazine for $9.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=cs_top_nav_gb27
It has 2.5 hours remaining, but looks like it will sell out in about an hour.

Why wouldn't they work? The PS3 supports up to 7 controllers doesn't it?
The only games i can think of that it would be practical in are sports games.

6 actually, as the remote uses slot seven.
And, none that I can think of, although The Beatles Rock Band does have three vocals, two guitars and drums for six players, but the vocals all use the same DS3 for their controls.
Perhaps something like Trivial Pursuit will allow it? I haven't tried the game so I don't know.

I tried 2 SAs and 1 DS3 and the game only registered 2 controllers. I'm not sure how to set up the controller assignment so that all three are registered by the game.

It supposedly does work the way you suggested, but I'm not sure whether the person on Yahoo Answers was talking out of his ass or if I just am not setting things up correctly. I've never used a multitap before (or, I have, but I don't remember how it was set up), so I don't know the first thing about how they worked on the PS2 either.
Edit: Figured it out. Controllers need to 1/1-A, 1B, 1C, and 1D. Have to go home to confirm, but I suppose it makes sense now that I think about how multitaps actually worked. I was doing it 1/1-A, 2 and 1B.

I like my old one and its the first time it broke down. I put a 320 GB HDD in this one. My game is still in the PS3 and that sucks a lot
Appie,
Have you reviewed this thread on the YLOD?

I have repaired (myself) my launch 60gb 2X already, the first repair lasted a month. I am still running on my second repair. Even if Sony repairs your PS3 which many people have done for $150USD doesnt mean it will last long. Check out the thread.

Not sure if this has been brought up before but does anyone else find that the internet browser on the PS3 repeatedly freezes?
It was ok until they brought out the 3.01 firmware update, now whenever I use it, 9 times out of 10 it'll freeze after a random period of time

Can't say that I've noticed it, although I only use the PS3 browser occasionally. I've had it open over an hour once in the last week or so, though, and it hasn't misbehaved.

Only if I am doing something that causes multiple instances of Java to open and close, like You Tube. Flickr also seems to give it issues. It seems to have problems letting the memory go and eventually freezes, but it is nothing new since 3.0 for me.Not sure if this has been brought up before but does anyone else find that the internet browser on the PS3 repeatedly freezes?

But if I am just letting one thing run for a long time it is fine. I have had Pandora running for hours on end.
