(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); :madk guys just thought i would warn u about this coz it has happend to me and about 700 other people that i know about anyways. it seems that the last update for modern warfare 2 will cause your playstation to get the dreaded yellow light of death (YLOD) it happen me just yesterday wen i was playin a tdm in mw2. this problem is fixable by yourself but NOT recommened and im not gona mess around with the inside of my ps3 and lose the warranty. iv rang sony up and they wont repair it but they will send me out a "repaired" old model that they fixed and i have to pay £130 and send in my ps3. which i wont pay as i already forked out enough money on the ps3 and they expect me to pay more for used unit and because of a problem that i didnt cause is bullshit


heads up if u play mw2 dont play for more than 2hours at a time give ur ps3 time to cool down
u can "clean out" ur ps3 urself bye turing it off at the back, holding down on the eject and turing it back on.

thax 4 reading this and taking d time

plz comment espically if this has happend to you aswell.

rep up if i helped

Have you ever considered your Playstation did that for a different reason, you know, something you might have done (i.e. let it overheat?).

how can a game even cause ylod its cause it overheats

i know there have been cases before mw2 espically in the old 60gb ps3 but ALOT of peolple are geting this problem now with this update. wateva way the game overheats the ps3.
i cud b wrong and the game is not to fault but its happened to alot of people while playing this.
im just warning others!!!

I have the old 60GB PS3, no problems here. If it's from overheating, then the YLOD should be gone by the morning/evening.

Doesnt "cleaning" your PS3 the fan way slowly break it?

i wudnt think so and i only done that after i rang sony tech support and he told me 2.
didnt fix it.

it happens cause people are sad and play mw2 all night and it overheats = ylod

lmfao i play for up to 2-5 hours without letting it cool down,(call me no life its whatever) and i have the first 80gb fat ps3, with 4 usb ports and memory card slots. its lasted me since nov 07 with only 1 break down
