This happened to my first fat PS3, I just bought the lens piece and changed it for the non-working one

too bad that even though he is 90% done he wont be able to finish it within an hour :/

can i ask, how much did it cost?

You wont have to share anything since the game is yours. Your profile can play it on any console and you can install it on any console.

You can a this to another win for digital only and always on. If disk drive breaks, nothing changes...its business as usual.

Why you sly devil, you...making jokes when people's bluray lasers are dying and cant read their physical media. this is serious matter.

Mmm... about 90 bucks. But that was 3 years ago, and it was the laser of the fat PS3. It also was when PS3 was very expensive, so buying a new one wasn't an option for me.

That's BS! How come I bought one when it first came out and it died of Redlight. I bought another one and still have it. So Idk you must be 1 in a million because I have never heard of that happening and have never experienced it in the life of ps3!

It happens... a lot

I got a friend who is going to drop by to replace the parts with his spare ps3.

open it, and clean it out first.

On youtube there are plenty of semi fixes that wont cost you anything, but its most likely that you will have to end up buying a new drive ($50-70) or lens ($35-50).
