it's probably worth it. $2 for fixing one disc is a bit of a rip off though. but you gotta do what you gotta do ;)

I've gotten mild lag on COD4, but never a full-on freeze. Unfortunately, UT3 is a different animal.

Strangely Mine froze on ninja gaiden (Right before a save on chapter 17), and the next day it started acting strange during nba 2k8, losing audio and then at the end of the game the thing just froze up...I hope its not a trend.

Mine was fine when I had cod 4, but I'm pretty sure it's just the disc.

Contrary to poular belief, bluray discs do scratch. You gotta take care of them just like cd's or dvd's. The only reason they do have a layer on the disc is that the information is so close to the surface, they need the protective coating or they would be unplayable after only a few uses. i remember when cd's first came out. everyone said the same thing. that they were indestructible, you could use it as a Frisbee and they would still work, well we all know now that is untrue.

only happens since the last update ???

go in options, settings, restaure default settings
(this will reset your ps3, but keeping everything you have on it)
you will have to reset your display options, your network options ... maybe bluetooth too

My PS3 froze, but with the game Condemned 2. I quit it, inserted another disc and then no discs started to work. Maybe it's the first sign of your PS3 stuffing up, just like mine did. But then again, it might not be...

First is was the icons with me on a previous update, I thought I was seriously buggin' then, but then came another firmware update. Solved the issue with my icons and now I read this thread and find that there's other consumers that are having the same issue that I'm having now, which is, my ps3 is now not reading my discs, I've had to restart it over and over again at first, just to see if it would pick the disc up and it would a few times, but really got frustrating after awhile and then called sony regarding my issue. Of course I got it when it first came out, so they told me something about my warranty being over with. So they wanted me to send it in, if, after restoring the settings back to default failed in solving the problem, and when I did it for the first time, it picked up the disc, but only after restarting of course which is really no different then what I was doing before, because the restoring did not work. Now it's not reading my discs at all, nor is it reading my memory stick, so I really wanna believe it's a software issue, I'm not going to pay them $150.00 to send me another one, when the one I got should be working just fine, but the ethics of sony's work seems to have lacked quality service, and now people's is sending their console's back or at least a decent number. So I really don't think it's anything particular with the games, but the software itself. So I've just been waiting for another update to see if it would solve the issue with the system not reading discs, and mem. sticks. It's the best I can do right now, other then let sony dick me for $150, because they don't wanna admit that their not up off their asses, their passing some of us that have this issue through a cow **** processing factory of their issues, let's hope it's a good day outside on the other end, rather then continous rainy pissed off days of **** Holla

Although I do not have COD4, I did come across other forums with the same issue and I'm gong to tell you the same thing I told them: STOP PLAYING THAT GAME. Apparently something is wrong with the game's coding.
