Fvcking son of a bltch..... im pretty sure my ps3 just got the ylod.... I was playing MW3 and bam it shut it off... i tried turning it back on and it goes BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEP and then the light goes green to yellow to flashing red.. some people say its donezo's and some say it might have just overheated. i guess i can try it tomorrow and see what happens.
 


That's why Xbox is where the real money is...I've had mine for 6 years approximately and no problems yet and I play daily

This made me laugh.... I know guys that go through XB360 like once a year till they got rid of them... It is so bad that at one time if you needed to ship it back to Microsoft for repairs the local UPS store KNEW what you wanted and the address it had to go to.
 
yeah thats extremely rare of a xbox go that long, And i Had a Launch 60gb ps3 and just last year it bit the dust. I tried to reflow to get it on and it worked but long enough to save data and get the disk out.
 


my PS3 is rock solid. i have one of the older ones and it's a champ. literally zero issues besides that ive been noticing that ive been running out of room on the hard drive lately. that's an easy enough problem to solve, though.
 
Well I've owned both ps3 and Xbox and the online play for Xbox is better. And I can't remember a time ever that Xbox was down. I do however remember a time when ps3 online didn't work for 3 months

they had to take it down for a good reason. and PSN is free...FRREEEEEEE.

besides, ps3 isnt for playing online. its for nerd games. sexbox is for COD and bros who lift, yo.
 


That happen to my fat version of ps3, so i found a video on youtube on how to get it back on by heating it up with a hairdryer for twenty min. then let it cool down. I turned it back on and it worked so i backed up everything and bought a new slim. never had a problem yet. but i do miss my fat version.
 
how do you back every thing up? if i can get it to work for even a little bit to do that i wouldnt care about buying a new one... actually yes i would because i wanted new injectors. im going to try and see if maybe it just over heated when i go home today but i doubt it. then ill see if i can fix it with that video. looks pretty complicated taking everything apart.
 
HAHA, 3 xbox's with no RROD, ever.

suckas...well I lied...I got one once on a power outtage...but I kicked over the surge protecter and turned it back on and it was golden.

PS3 caught fire at my buddy's apt. back in the day, the whole thing caught fire, pretty epic.

I'm on my 7th Xbox 360. Never got a legit RROD though. During the time when they were offering the extended warranty for RROD's I kept sending my xbox in with a fried graphics card/processor. My TV had a sketchy connection for the A/V cables and kept frying my graphics card. I'd call and say it was RROD'ing at first and then nothing after...

Ever since the new 360 though, I've had no issues. And PS3 online is a joke. I hopped on a PS3 after a year, played MW2 and went 42-7 my first game. Love the PSN nubbies <3
 


Daughter #1's PS3 is currently in the PS3 HOSPITAL undergoing surgery for YLOD syndrome. Check the link, for $99 they do a pretty awesome service and all the work is guaranteed.
 
Still on my first PS3 had it probably for 4 years now...went threw 3 Xboxs prior to that and just have up on getting it fixed and gave all my games/accessories to my buddy and chunked the Xbox in the trash can. Never again ..ill stick with PS3. Get a Xbox if you want cartoon avatars and ****.
 
My first PS3 was going on 4 years till a lightning bolt hit my apartment. Hell even after that it still worked but the wifi, Hdmi and Ethernet ports were fried and it could sync a controller to it. So I sold it for $100. Got a new PS3 for Christmas. But yeah not many 360's last more than a year. In the 4 years I had my PS3, one friend went through 2 360's in the matter of months. And another friend went through 4 used 360's in 2 weeks.

All that plus free PSN and Blu-Ray, I'll take a PS3 over a 360 any day.

Well I like online as well and it was down cause they got hacked. When I played on ps3 I would get lag in the game way more and loose connection to host way more. Xbox isn't free and that's cause they have better servers :D

Edit: and on an Xbox lasting a long time it depends on how ya treat it. I take care of mine and keep it dust free and have a little stand alone fan behind it to keep it cool and its always good to go
