Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

Stupid question seeing as I probably already know the answer. I was watching a movie on my thumb drive tonight and my system suddenly shut off. I went and attempted to turn it off and on from the back of the unit and then using the power button in the front, the unit appears to try and turn on but I quickly get a very brief yellow light before it just starts blinking red and it sits like that until I turn it off from the back again. Does this mean the system is fried? Im sure thats probably what it means but figured Id ask seeing as Ive got absolutely zero money to replace it or get it fixed at the moment. Ive been searching on the internet with varying answers so any help someone can provide here would be appreciated.

yeah its done. YLOD.

PS3 price drop now to $249......$199 would have been the sweet spot, but oh well. Let's see if MSFT follows next.

They are also slashing the 320GB model to 299.99 which is why Kmart showed the inFamous 2 bundle next week for that price I suppose.

Seriously? I JUST picked up a new PS3 at Walmart Friday for $300 after getting the YLOD on my old fat model.

Looking at those controller pics, it looks like y'all bare some hardcore cheesers, doing the same two or three moves over and over and over. Get some real skills. Just messin' with ya (kinda), I've never seen anyone do that to a controller. Worst I've ever had was a face button got stuck.

Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

Yeah, controllers are so expensive. For one of my controllers, the R1 and R2 triggers are completely gone. & I can only barely press the R1 on it.

No LittleBigPlanet fun for that controller..

Re: Official PS3 Discussion Part III...

My PS3 is at the end of the line for me as games are freezing and graphical defects are rampant protruding from characters and background objects and the screen flickers and flashes. I was waiting for the price drop and now that it has arrived I'll be picking up the Infamous 2 bundle sometime next week. My PS3 still plays movies and PS2 games fine just PS3 games are affected so I'll probably keep it just for watching movies and play games on my new slim. I went a long time with these problems but it has progressively got worse to the point where I don't really want to play.

Must've missed out. It's now $59.99.

My friend would've jumped on this in a heartbeat had he known.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a bluetooth wireless earpiece for the PS3 and can be used for iphone? Not looking to spend much, the earpiece came off of my current one which I've had for a few years and can't fix it. Any suggestions?

I still use my first gen Sony PS3 BT headset that works with my iphone as well but I'm looking to upgrade to the official Sony 2.0 one myself here really soon.
