yesterday (april 14) i purchased a brand new 60gb PS3 and a copy of Call of Duty 3. After setting it up and what not i started to play the game, then the "fun" began. Every 10-15 min. into playing CoD3 my ps3 would totaly shut down (not just restart, it would crash, the red stand-by light would even be off). After having this happen mutiple times my PS3 finally totaly crapped out 100%, it wouldnt even turn on or anything, so today i returned the system for a brand new diff. one. And seeing as my first one died with my CoD3 inside the system, the store gave me a copy of Resistence F.O.M. seeing as they did not have any copies of CoD in stock. Well, after bringing the new system home and setting it all up again, ive played resistence for multiple hours and there has been no sign of any problems. BUT a few moments ago my buddy came over with his copy of CoD3, we put it in and THE SAME THING happened!!!..the crashing of my PS3. Does anyone know what the prob could be because i dont think 2 diff PS3's would crash off 2 diff copies of the same game. Im hookin my Ps3 up to a standard TV (480 res) with the basic out of the box composite cables if that info helps......any1 know whats up?

I didn't get a chance to play Call of Duty 3 on my PS3 yet. I've never heard of this problem before. Maybe you should try asking at the PS3 CoD3 forum.

I think it's a sign that you shouldn't play anymore Call of Duty.  Either that or your house doesn't like Call of Duty.

COD3 is known to crash systems. I remember havin looked up a review for COD3 at IGn, and they said in one of the comments (beside the numbers that they gave the game for each catagory) that glitches and crashes ingame are bound to happen.

interesting.  I've played hours upon hours of CoD3 and never even had 1 freeze, let alone a system crash, and I got one of the first 500,000.

i think you should ritually burn you're copy of COD3 and sprinke the ashes over you're ps3 to heal it.

Hey man sounds like a electrical problem. Try pluggng it into the wall plug in so it gets the best connection possible. My xbox 360 turns off when i have all my electronics before my power bar blows the fuse. But it could possibly be the game but i dont think it can turn it off. If no room on pluggin just get an extension cord to next wall.
