What the hell!!! I thought PS3's were supposed to be extremely reliable. My 360 lasted 2 years and my ps3 can't even last one. I don't think I have the receipt so what should I do?

 

You have the "error 801xxxxxx" problem. It's caused by a installation corruption and causes the lens to malfunction. Find your receipt, send it back to Sony, and wait 3-4 weeks for it. The "error 801xxxxxx" is a problem that can always be repaired, so don't worry about getting a different PS3 in return.

Dust it, clean it, backup the data, backup your save files SEPARATELY, and make sure there's no cards or disc in the PS3 before sending it back. I know it sucks, but once you get it repaired, it shouldn't happen again (hopefully, for you and me).
