(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My PS3 was completely fine - I upgraded to 3.73 (completely optional) and then the MW3 lag got worse, worse, and worse until it started going black after games and then boom...it doesn't recognize any games, movies or discs. What should I do?

Sony wants ****ing 130$ to fix, 100$ to replace, or I can go with GameStop who want 40$ to replace it since I have warranty with them.

Should I downgrade to like 3.72 and try it first?

Yes that works on fat ps3s but you really need to know your shit for that kinda not worth the hassle

Plus they are over 100 pound I think and he is saying it will cost 30 pounds to replace with his warranty :p

What do you guys suggest I do? I had YLOD last time and I had to pay 40$ to get that replaced and that was only like 5 months ago.

I'm considering getting an XBOX since Sony doesn't have any backwards compatible PS3s other than this model and they're money-hungry as hell.
