Popped in MGS last night and all of a sudden right when i was about to press start to load up the game...my ps3 bleeps for the first time and turns off. I go and press the button to turn it back on and it lights up green for a second, then yellow and back to bleeping red non stop with no response. I tried this morning and same thing. will it ever work again?

Even if the warranty is done, if a firmware they put out messed up my console they are liable for it.

Doesn't sound like 2.4 to me. I had this problem the day MGS4 was released, try taking out the HDD and turning it on, if it still does it then it's hardware failure, not HDD failure... but that still means your data is irretrievable as each HDD is assigned to its own PS3. I still managed to get a new PS3 even though it was out of warranty, so i suggest ringing Customer Support, be nice and they should be able to help you as their customer services it great.;)
