(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So today I was playing some good old BO2 on PS3, I got bored at around 5 PM and turned off my PS3 to play some PS4. I got off roughly around 11 PM and took my medicine so I could go to sleep. When I turned my PS4 off and noticed that it took an abnormally long time to finally shut off. After this my PS3 turned on by itself (no beep) and when I tried to turn it off it beeped 3 times and would not shut off. I did this twice then decided to come back 2 mins later to check on it and I could then turn it off. Anyone know why this happened?

Most likely just couldn't shut off correctly due to mods (whatever they may be) bugging out your system. It happens, not really a big deal, unless it is happening ALL the time..then I'd blame files or corruption somehow.
When you turn it on again, you'll probably be greeted with the screen telling you so, and asking to rebuild the file system. Just click yes and let it fix any problems.

As long as the console boots and plays normal on next boot, It's fine.

Oh, that means that there was a connectivity loss to both devices. If your PS4 took a long time to turn off that's the reason. Simply check this on YouTube yourself. Also, the beep is to signify a connection loss. So, there's no need to worry :p
