Is this a PS3 Slim problem? Does yours make this?

I just got a Slim and i'd notice that it wobbles a bit wile it is placed horizontally. Here is an example to give you an idea; if you press it on theback leftside it move down a bit. Does your's does the same?

why dont you just lay it down

Does it have any rubber pads on the bottom of the console? Maybe one is missing?

the new ps3 slim model has an optional stand for vertical placement, which is to be bought separatly, the ps3 is not supposed to be placed veritcally without it... if there is a problem although you are using the vertical stand, then you might want to get it replaced...MondasM

He placed it horizontally though.

[QUOTE="freekninjinc"][QUOTE="soulreaper-4"] Sorry to ask you but what do you mean by bend and what does warped means.soulreaper-4

What I can assure you will happen if you open your case is that you will void your warrenty.

Try and take it back to gamespot and see if they will change it for you. Just make a big fuss about it in person if they give you a hard time.

[QUOTE="soulreaper-4"][QUOTE="freekninjinc"]The physical case,like give it a bit of a twist to get the bottom to lie flat and even.The plastic could be slightly misaligned/warped by the top and bottom halves of the case not having been when the were assembled together with screws,so a little twisting of the ps3 may straighten it out.And operating it with it wobbly should be fine as long as You dont tip it back and forth all the time-even then You might only get slightly slower loading times from the disc drive wobbling and making it hard to read the disc.KapG

Probably not and it would void Your warranty.If twisting does'nt work,try something like taking a small piece of tape and folding it over til its thick enough to compensate the wobble,and tape it to one of the feet on the bottom of the ps3.freekninjinc
