I visited my sister's family on Christmas Day, and had a pretty good time, except I was roped into diagnosing why a game called Black Ops wouldn't load or install on her husband's nephew's Playstation 3.
It's smaller, and drabber looking, than my sleak looking PS3, and displays "HDMI 1" instead of the "HDMI 2" which mine does. But apart from that no message or clue why the game wouldn't work on his - just a blank screen.
Can any PS3 experts think of a reason or suggest a remedy? It seems odd that there are two models called the same thing, especially with such an evident difference in functionality.
Perhaps he just needs to upgrade the firmware, and if so where can he download the upgrade files? Or would that be something he has to purchase?
(The game is rated 18, and he is 9 - I guess kids grow up fast these days )
