Right,so awhile ago my PS3 took a large shite and broke,an easy fix right,yes it was.

But I'm lazy,so I just got around to fixing it today.

I got new cables as well,because I lost the ones it came with when I go to plug the cables in they work.

I'm like can't freaking wait to play Drakes fortune because I only had that for a few day's when my PS3 broke that was when the game first came out so yeah awhile.

I put it in and then the poopie happens the screen is,well the only thing to say is it's purple.

All the color that should be there is purple.

Could it be the disk or is it the cables.

Can anyone help me?

lol all i understood was screen is purple,

but what im guessing is, is your using your HDMI Cables and one of the colors on the connection isn't working right.

can you still hear the menu pop up?
or is it no sound, and just complete purple screen?

if its just purple screen, its something to do with the ps3.

if its purple with sounds. and you can hear the music/ main menu its something to do with your connection.

Yeah I can still hear everything and the details are still there.

So just get a new set of cables.

[blacklabelfosho]

or its the actual connection on the back of your tv.

my HDMI plugs on my tv are fked up and when i plug my 360 into them all i see is green.

thats why i had a clue about what you were tlaking about.


the cables might be good, check the cable on another tv.
if it works ont he other tv. its your female end of your connection on the back of the tv

[Mcmodder♥]

why did you buy a ps3 they may as well be called a brick lol

[Korupt Data]

Its either you ps3's female connection, you ps3's male connection, or your tv's female connection. check them all.

Thanks man.

Other guy's help don't make comments (no offense) about the PS3 being lame and stupid it has it's goods and bads.

So all I need to do is just put it in to the other port,and I should be fine?


Edit: Aye, so I did that with my xbox it worked then I did it with my PS3 and it didn't so it's my PS3 AV port.

Maybe I could try HDMI cables but not for awhile those are $90 so for another day.

I bought a PS3 as a cheap Blu Ray player $400 compared to $1000 or w/e they were when I got mine was a good price,
and for Uncharted love that s*** played today purple and no sound still beat half the games on xbox.
