Usually for me, wen a game crashes it locks up/ feezes the console. Well yesterday I was playing Fallout 3 GOTY (was on the 1st dlc) and the game just crashed to the dashboard whitout freezing the console or anything.

I find this very strange. I've had like 3 PS3s so far and this has never happend to me. It almost looked as the system stoped reading the disck (like wen you press the eject buttond while you playing). I guess it could be a bluray player issue.

What do you guys think ?

It's happened to me a couple times. I think it was as like everyone mentioned Fallout 3 that did it.

I have the disc-based format of Undead Nightmare, but I've only gotten crashes that forced me to reset. Any and all forms of crashing/freezing are annoying nonetheless.

I've only had this happen to me on Fallout New Vegas.

That was the last thing to surprise me with that game. Such a mess.

Yeah, happens when just the game crashes but the OS realises it. The full freeze is when the OS crashes as well
