Heavy Rain PS3 freezing problems

Hi all, so I own a first gen fat ps3 system and just ordered a brand new sealed copy of Heavy Rain the Directors cut off Amazon. Already while playing it the game has frozen 2X. Once giving me that infamous "black screen of death." I dont want to play it again bc i hate to have to replay sections i am in the middle of. I just started the game and am only passed the prologue, now in the 1st chapter Father and Son section. What can i do to fix this? Will calling Sony directly help? Can they give me a new copy of the game and will that even help? Any advice id appreciate, thanks

No, i guess not. The game just installed on its own. I played through an additional chapter with no issues, the second freeze may not have been the game, but my system has frozen b4 when its too hot or warm in the room. Ill see if it happens again. I also downloaded the DLC with no problems
