Acts of god.....I cant believe they put that in their warranty. You do not want god to come over your house for a party when you have a PS3. Once he gets drunk and starts using his magic, the PS3 is as good as dead and you are out on your ass without a warranty.

Oh mighty and powerful god, we thank you for the wonders you put on this earth, including the miracle of dust.

Really.....this is just insane. You should write to the corporate offices of sony, all the way at the top. You will get results that way.


 Tons of warranties have the "acts of god" exclusion...it just refers to lightning, floods, etc...things outside human control.

It'd be more accurate for companies to say "acts of nature" or the like...but then again, that's not perfect either.  "Acts of god" is just a legal term...

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

 His PS3 was sent in for repairs but they won't repair it because they claim it is too dusty

 guys console breaks.  He only uses it for Folding@Home and as a BlurRay player and is apparently a techno-geek who's pretty anal about his equipment.  He calls customer service, they don't want the PS3 because there's no receipt.  He yells for a while that there's no receipt because it was a gift and they eventually agree to take it.

He waits a while with no contact and calls them.  After going through the receipt business again he finds out there are mysterious pictures he can't see of dust inside his console and they can't fix it unless he pays $150.  He complains up the chain and eventually comes to one bitch that says he can go through whoever he wants because it will all go back to her and she will say no.  He tries to ask for the pictures and she won't show him unless he subpeona's Sony and ends it at that.

In one word: shitty.

Dag....sorry to hear that, and since everyone that bought their PS3's since launch. I think Sony warranty is up this month. Including mine. But I have a Gamestop 1year warranty. So the dude should of just opened the PS3 himself and compressed air all the dust since his warranty was up.
