ok so i popped in resistance last week, wouldnt work. so i thought it was the disc, since i could play ps2 games on it. brought it in to gamecrazy today, got the disc replaced, brought it home, and it still doesnt read! has anyone encountered a similar problem? does sony have a free warranty policy like microsoft? man i am so pissed! first my 360 drive breaks last month and now this sh!7!

Have you been able to try others aside from Resistance?

I'm sorry to say that I was right that the PS3 would show problems so early. As Cartman always said: "nah nah nah nah nah. ha ha ha, ha ha ha, na na na na na na na"XmasterX01

Mine and the majority of people and friends have not have one freeze or error occur on their ps3, and mine is a launch console.

If the same thing has happened with the same game on different discs, it has to be the console... I believe if you call them up and explain the problem, they will replace it for free... When you say it doesnt play, does it say this game cannot be read, or does it give you a black screen afterwards?

it doesnt even do anything. when i put it in, i hear the disc spinning and see the loading icon in the top left corner for a minute. then it just stops, and it doesnt appear in the game section.

Im not a hardware guru but if the disc is in good condition because you got a new copy, then its your ps3. Good disc + bad reader = no go :/ If you cant find anymore information, call customer service to see if you cant fix it, and if you still cant get it working, request a return...

Definitely sounds like a problem. Do you have the latest system update? I dont know if it matters. Also were those copies of Resistance used?

It's funny though you would expect Microsoft to fix all those problems they've had since their launch and yet nothings happend. Check this video to see what I'm talking about: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/76375.html

No problem :D kind of ridiculous no? They completely denied the fact that the 360 was broken.

hey you know what dont take your crap here. what makes you think they bought my systems? they only paid half my ps3 as a combined christmas and birthday present, i paid the other half. as for the 360, that was jsut a lucky surprise from my grandfather, who i barely even see as he livess on the other side of the freakin world. and if you still think thats spoiling, well i dont really give a damn. life isnt fair. deal with it. thanks to everyone who tried to help solve my problem. screw everyone whos jsut being a little b*tch.
