That's kind of a flame bait thing to say, but I actually kind of think there's something to it, because this kind of stuff is popping up all over the place.  Mostly bad lasers, but I've seen a lot of PS3 hardware failure posts lately too, and ironically enough, a hardware failure on the PS3 gives you a red light.  I even saw someone call it the RLoD (red light of death).  I think that's taking it a bit too far, but the PS3 is definitely not without its hardware problems.

WOW this absolutely sucks i had just received my PS3 back from it not reading disks and not even and hour of playing it, it breaks yet again!

@stonecold

wow that sucks I duno if its still under warranty then send it back again and if not then I guess you have to pay to get it fixed or else get a new one. I have no idea what the warranty is for the PS3

I know why your PS3 broke, but you're not going to like my reasoning.

Its perfectly simple and understandable now that I know myself.

Im not trolling, im trying to help you here to prevent this kind of problem ever happening again. See its going to happen to every PS3 owner here without fail, so even as a flaming Xbot on this site I had to step in to tell you guys how to fix it.

Your PS3 will break unless you add me to PSN. Im sorry its the truth. Its Sonys hidden legacy of failure with the PS3.

what the hell.

you are more unlucky than me :(

i really have a really bad lucky with electronics.

btw: its mainly a problem with 40gb manufactured around novemenber , september last year.

Even though we are miles apart,
You have struck fear into my heart.

My heart ...
