I refuse to believe This YLOD after apocalyps3

The problem here is that I got the YLOD today... and it is a day after the so calledapocalyps3. I was not even on my PS3 yesterday when the uproar happened so today they said they fixed the problem and all of a sudden during a NBA2k10 game it goes out on me...wtf!

I do not have my warrenty anymore, but I think that this apocalyps3 thing caused it. I hope I have a case here. What do you think?

No.

The only problem with the ps3 was an internal error making the ps3's internal clock think it was a leap year which caused a problem. The second it became march first the problem was resolved. Some people even reset their ps3s clock back one full day and the problem was resolved simple as that.

If you did not turn on your ps3 your ps3 never aknowledged that it was feb 29th and you never had apoclyps3.

So no your ps3 just died. They are reaching their life expectancy if yours is old enough.

However if you want to for the cost of only 10 bucks as you are past your warranty anyways.

Open it up apply some thermal paste to the processor and save yourself ylod.

thats all it takes. However it has to be done before ylod not after so you are sol but anyone else should heed this advice.

Yup, it's just bad luck that his console died..a very bad coincidence, that error does not cause a YLOD..it's impossible.

sigh

I got ylod on sunday night. http://www.gophermods.com/index.php?l=product_list&c=5&gclid=COSd4fGEm6ACFQk65QodZ270eg

This is where Im sending it to get fixed. they have great reviews, and its cheaper and faster than Sony

Dude mine got the ylod too! But this was the morning before the apocalypse. After i heard about it i desperately wanted everyones fat ps3 to get the ylod as well. If that happened, maybe i wouldn't have had to pay 120 to trade in my fat ps3 for the slim.

Now i have to wait to play BC2 :(

There are over 32 million PS3's out there, and a few are going to die on any given day. It would be truly bizarre if none of them died the day after the big apocalypse LOL.

Just an unfortunate coincidence.

Your PS3 getting a YLOD as nothing to do with apocalyps3. Thousands of PS3s have had YLOD before that internal clock error showed up, mine included.lusitanogamer
