Just recently my ps3 started freezing while I was playing games like Skate 2 so I tried to quit the game and it didnt work so then I tried to turn it off. That didnt work either so I just turned off the master power button in the back and after that everything worked until it froze again and I did the same thing. But now the games wouldnt read for about 30 min and when I tried start the games up it said Error code 80010514 so I turned it off and then booted the ps3 up again and it just stopped reading games and now I cant play any ps3 games. The xmb still works and online and everything like that but my ps3 games.

SOMEONE PLZZZ HELP

well, I think i solved my problem by fully restoring my ps3. Maybe it will help you. But you may lose your trophies. and will lose game data (unless you back it up to a usb stick).

Save game files to usb and you wont lose trophies just sync with server after rebuid of HDD. My 60Gb PS3-250gb stopped reading PS3 games, everything else worked fine. If you have the same model and issue, your going to have to send to sony unless you can find someone or a store to replace Bluray drive. Unless you have money to buy a new one thats what i did for the mean time. Good luck!

^^^ This is the same exact thing that happened to me. My 60 gb just stopped reading all games altoogether one day(a week before K2 came out, and I had SF IV in my hand...ouch) I tried to do a quick format, long format, restore...the whole shebang....nothing. You may have to bite the bullet and call up Sony to have it serviced if you still are receiving problems. Also try to clean out the vents with some compressed air, it could just be very dusty.

wtf, that makes no sense. Your ps3 can't play ps3 games but it can play ps2... I think your ps3 turned into a ps2.5

No he's right. Mines doing the same thing, I can play DVD films and ps2 games, but swap over to a ps3 disc or Blu-ray film and it can't read the disc. Phoned Sony today and the fella on the phone said the lasers alignment have probably gone faulty and a courier will pick it up tomorrow, take it to Sony's repair centre and I'll have it back within two weeks. Plus they add on another three months warranty which is pretty cool of Sony. If it still goes wrong within that period, they'll send me a new ps3. I've heard a lot of people having problems with Sony's customer service, but for me they have been triple A. First ps3 died before Christmas (YLoD), was nearly two months over warranty and they sent me a refurb ps3 with three months warranty. And now this one has a laser issue and they giving me another three months. So you guys having problems, just phone Sony for help as their is nothing you can do for it if it stops reading blu-ray discs. You might be lucky if the lens is just dirty and it just needs a blu-ray lens cleaner, but if it's alignment is off, you are stuffed.

Yeah me too, this is a sad sad day. I always thought of Sony as being a better hardware than MS but I guess I was wrong. I just sware it seems that my system bricked up after my Killzone and Home updates. It was working fine before then and now it freezes during games and movies. I think I will wait until the bugs are fixed before I buy the PS4 or Xbox 720 or whatever whenever they are released. Sigh!!!!
