You can go into system link, which is multiplayer to play with friends around you. That answer does not make sense to me but could be accurate.

As far as I Know. Without the internet you can only play people next to you with there own controller on your console and you can call it co-op split screen or multiplayer that depends on what the game allows. I was surprised when I learned how many games could only play against someone online and not on the same console.

you can not use the internet without connecting. It might be possible to give the PS3 updates using another source to download the update, but you would still be using the internet to do that.

Do you have to use wireless internet for Ps3?

no u must use an ethernet cable or wireless internet For most people who do not have a wireless connection in their home they must also purchase at least a router to allow a connection between the cable modem and the PS3. An ethernet cable allows a wired connection between the PS3 and the router and if running a cable is a problem you need to purchase a wireless router. Although I purchased a wireless router I found that the wired connection worked better and the wireless router also had four wired connection spots on the back.
