No its during matches on CoD4 etc. And sending messages to friends doesnt even work while the games are off and its just the XMB:?

Reformat your hard drive by restoring the factory settings.

I had a friend with a similar problem. online stuff stays in the servers. Just back up your save data for your games. And if reformating does not work call Sony and see what they say.

MAYBE your PS3 knows you have a GeOW icon for your picture and is punishing you for liking anything to do with 360!

Seriously I have no idea this hasnt happened to me before...

i get the same thing, but mine loads eventually, its just really slow. then if im still in it and the game starts (after being in the lobby) it lags really bad.

also i have my information board off and autoplay off. But i dont know if that makes any difference.

The GeoW pic and the constant stream of problems has me thinking he's a troll.

His profile is completely empty apart from his avatar, and this stream of problems seems to be all to conincidental considering no-one else on this forum has the same problem.

The XMB does take a little longer to load in game, and with a multiplayer game the CPU would be a little slower due to all the calculations it has to make.

But I doubt it's really happening.
