My 80GB ps3 is now broken! Was playing some COWAW when it froze and kicked me from gameplay. I then restarted ps3 it loaded fine, then after like 3-4minutes the screen started changing colors to Blue, Green (Lots of Green Circles), Yellow, and a few other colors. Then shortly after that started having designs appear as well that looked just like the Matrix Coding that flutters down from the top of screen. So after calling Playstation Customer Support and realizing I was never going to make it out of their automated customer support. So i then called a different number and spoke with this lady that was definetly not in the u.s. And well she tried telling me I had to hang up with her and call them back, so of course im not going to call them back. So me and this lady i could barely understand went back and forth about how she was useless and supposably she didnt have a manager or anyone thats higher then her, as well as I couldnt get her name, I.D number for employment identification, or even a location of the center. She was contradicting her self practically the whole time i was on the phone with her. 1st thing she said to me on the phone was "please tell me the problem your having so i can connect you with the appropriate department", so i was like ok hook me up with ps3 customer support, she then replied ok get out a pen and heres the number. She wouldnt connect me but what had me stumped was how she said she would connect me from the beginning of the call. Then she wouldnt. I wanted to wrangle the lady and drag here out of her cubicle by the phone cord she was talking to me on. But being im pretty tired after being up all night playing ps3 until it died I was nice and just ended the call with a few words of choice. (Which are all censored here on the forum so no reason to write it...lol)

End Result is after about 40-45mins of the phone calls to 3 different sony numbers I was finally able to get someone to tell me "yep, you definetly need to set your device up for service." Well thats kind of the reason I called you...duh 20mins later She said ok im sending you an email now you fill it out and then your Return Merchandise Authorization form will arrive in the postage mail in 7-10business days (which is 2 weeks) then another 3-5days to allow them to receive the item then another 7-10business days before i should suspect mine repaired or exchanged. Looks like ill be getting a re-furbished ps3 for christmas from sony, and with out ps3 for the mean time. Guess i needed to take a break anyways my baby girls going to be born on Dec. 4th anyways (inducing the labor) time to start being a dad and not gaming all day and night like a adoloscent. So this is what Ive been doing for the last 1~1-1/2hrs.

Try doing does freeps3 things, my bro said it worked for him.

that sucks, well christmas isn't that far away

I agreed and you got the greatest gift for christmas.

damn. that sucks dude.

My HDD failed and I went to Best Buy and got a 250gb hard drive for a laptop and installed it into my ps3.

that sucks dude, never had that happen to me yet. (knock on wood) as far as wanting to play codw@w why don't you go and rent a ps3 from rent a center until yours gets fixed or replaced.(just an idea)

that sucks, that never to me play cod5, but sometime when lm done a match it freenze and i have to wait like 20 second and after that their like 10 second intill the game starts. i don't my ps3 to be broken.

well ive been just glitching halo3 and gears of war lately on xbox360 and playing GTA San Andreas and a ton of other games via emulators. PS1 emulator is awesome can never get enough of Tony Hawk 3 and 4. From how I'm understanding this from Sony I should have my PS3 back just after Christmas if its going to be repaired. "Limited Warranty's" are loop hole warranty's. Well looks like more of the console I despise and pc gaming. lol. Im amazed by the fact that my ps3 dies and it gets such a re-action. I will make sure to sit there and tell my ps3 at story time when shes all better about all the people here on NGU that cared so dearly about the ability for a speedy recovery. (LMAO)

thats probably a crap connection do u get nat type 3 on your connection
