A few days from the Killzone launch, I was playing Resistance 2 when during a loading screen it freezes. I hold the ps button, no response. I hold down the power button for over 10 seconds and nothing. So I turn it off at the back and when I turn it back on it doesn't read any of my disks. This is clearly the symptoms a burnt out laser.
I'm sure sony will replace it, they better, but the real problem is that this is a 60Gb launch-day model. It's backwards compatable, it has the SD and other memory card slots in the front. It's in perfect mint condition, as shiny and new as when it first came out of the box. And what I have heard about replacement consoles is they are reject consoles, damaged scratched and marked but otherwise still functioning.
So, I'll be playing DOWII this weekend. I won't be buying Killzone 2, which was going to be my 21st game, until I solve this console issue. I give my regards to the VGC EU Killzone clan, have fun without me.
