Well I know some people that have kept their ps3 on for weeks and it runs fine. I guess this guy is just unlucky or puts it in a place that isn't well ventilated.

Anyways ::pours 40 on curb for tc's ps3::

Hahaha, sorry though :( Hopefully they can fix it. Since you haven't had it too long I think they'll probably be able to do something about.

I have heard of people that leave it on for like 10 hours! Man you can't put MGS4 down after just 5 hours! Sony makes a great and inovative console. That sucks though dude, but I am sure they can fix it.

That's not true. Do you honestly think that a powerful machine like the ps3 can't stand being left on for 6 hours!?

I have left my PS3 on for two weeks on folding@home, then playing, then folding@home. then movies, and still working like a charm.

There can still be a off chance that something can happen and I just don't want to risk it.

I feel your pain. My PS3 is in the shop right now. I'm hoping they finished it up today. Shipping it back to me today would be nice too. Recieving it today would be better.

I understand that, but you have to know that its rare if your PS3 breaks, its more often to happened with the 360.

You ain't lying. My X360 heat up and freeze the game in 2-3 hours of play and it well ventilated. :| And happen like 6 times in 5 months or less. Atleast it ain't broke. But looking forword to getting the MGS4 PS3. :D

Completely on because I keep mine on stand by 24/7 but never on that long since it does get fairly hot after a few hours of playing.

I've played COD4 for 14 hours at a time without turning my PS3 off. From now on I'm limiting my playtime to 4-5. I've had it over heat twice my room gets realy warm. When it over heated the fan kicked into over drive and it sounded like a airplane taking off. I just want my PS3 to last as long as possible so I'm setting some limits.
