I guess I misunderstood your chart thingy or something. What I meant was the AV cables coming from the PS3.

Which of coarse, are male.

The first link in your edit would be perfect for this. Go for that one.

ty for all the help, might look up this 'line in' thing also

No problem. It's pretty easy once you notice. It's all "connect the dots" really. Or how that song goes "the knee bone's connected to the leg bone".

ya, i think in the end ill go for the 'line in' option, get an adapter that has red/white female RCA and male 3.5mm and just play it through my PC via headphones or speakers... means that i dont have to swap my speaker wires around also when i want to use my PS3 on my PC (since ill have two HDMI cables, one to my TV, other to DVI adapter on PC moniter)

im guessing i should be able to play the PS3 sound through my PC (line in) into the speakers/headphones via this

No, coming from the PS3 directly would be PS3 M}{F adaptor F}{M headphone jack to PC speaker.

If you want earphones. You'll need something to amp/buffer it. Your PC "line in" or a stereo of some kind would work well. In that, you wouldn't need your adaptor for it.

Denji

still dont get it since you cant plug your RCA cables straight into your PS3, rather your PS3 RCA cables need to plug into something (TV). so where would your RCA male leads plug into on that adapter you linked?

BTW if you missed my last edit,

EDIT: im guessing these will work also,

Yes, that will work.

Or something similar to this. Those are the ones I use myself.

Denji

how'd that work? because from my understanding it has to do...

PS3-F}{M-PS3 composite/RCA cables-M}{F-adapter-F}{M-speakers/headphones

how do you do it with those cables you linked?

No, coming from the PS3 directly would be PS3 M}{F adaptor F}{M headphone jack to PC speaker.

EDIT: oh yes, and line-in sounds interesting, could i grab a female RCA/male 35.mm from my PS3 to PC and then use speakers/headphones from my PC?

You can use that for PC speakers. But direct PS3 to earphones don't really work too well without an amplifier of some kind.

But what you need are two composite audio inputs (split) to one female headphone jack. There are a lot in my city in Dollar Stores for 99cents.

ty, will something like this one work?

Anyone have a specific name for an adapter that lets you connect your PS3 audio RCA to 3.5mm TRS headphones?

So I think it is red/white female adepter to female 3.5mm TRS, so you plug your male RCA red/white into the adepter and also plug your male TRS into the adapter. because I wouldn't mind using my PC speakers and headphones on a PS3 with my PC screen (via HDMI to DVI adapter) while someone is using the TV

ATM there is THIS, will that work fine with what I want? either way, if anyone can pass me the name of an adapter like they one i am looking for, thatll be great

Think of it this way. Just take the analogy for what it is, and don't compare it side by side to reality.

The Wii is the iPod, and the 360/PS3 are the Zune.

The Zune is every bit as good, if not better, than the iPod, but pick any random person off the street and ask which they'd prefer. iPod. Why? Because it makes them feel cooler, and they probably don't even know what the Zune is.

People won't stop buying the Wii just because the 360/PS3 will get motion controls. I'm pretty dead certain that isn't even the reason in the first place, but my analogy still stands regardless.

treedoor

last time i check 360/ps3 didnt have wii sports. the consoles dont do the same thing, people buy the wii for a different reason not solely because it is popular

point invalid for the moment. and if people not buy ps3/360 motion controls for any reason it would because ms/sony was far to late to the game AND/OR because of how they market it (360/ps3 stuff will be addons and will either confuse people or cost more)
