PS3 by window

if i have my PS3 by a window and the window is open most of the time, is that bad for my PS3?a13chaffin

Well yes if someone decides to steal it, but otherwise it shouldn't be very bad but you may get some more dust and dirt inside of it.

rain......

As long as you don't have the Playstation Eye, otherwise the ps3 might tell you that it's a nice day, and you should go out and see the sun sometime.

stupidest question i've heard in a while... obviously it's not better for it--PS3s don't need fresh air.rptransam09

Lets have a little fun with this shall we, warranty will be very optimistic here...

* As you place your PS3 at the window, you leave and later in the day it starts raining. Rain comes in the window and soaks your PS3. You come back, turn it on, and sparks fly and the PS3 is fryed because of too much moisture in the PS3. You call Sony about it and they send you another PS3. You put it in the window again and temperatures outside rise to 105 degrees (keep following this, don't judge). After a few hours of it eating the sunlight and temperatures for a while, you turn on your PS3 but find out it keeps shutting off by itself along with flashing a yellow light. After a while, your PS3 cools down in the night and plan on playing your PS3 in the morning. When you wake up, you see that your PS3 is missing. You rush towards the window and look around outside and notice foot prints in the grass. You scratch your head and say to yourself, "I never knew that the PS3 could walk, the PS3 really is beyond our time." You then call Customer support of Sony and report to them that your PS3 just got up and left. Customer service pauses for a moment and tells you that they do not deal with theft. You then hangup on customer service and then call your insurance agency and cross your fingers that you added the PS3 to your renters insurance.*

LOL! Classic response.

I would not keep it by the window considering that most dust comes from the outside.queenster08

yeah, there is alot more pollen and particles floating around outside then in your house, plus it just doesn't make much sense in the first place. Keep it in a space with at least 3 inches of space on all sides of the console and you should be fine.

rain......
