I can play any other games for hours... however whenever I play COD4, my PS3 will automatically shut off after 30 minutes of playing. This happened recently and 3 times already. Is there a reason for this... I believe my PS3 is up to date.. is there any manual update require for COD4 for auto shut off of PS3?

Do you not have an Internet connection to your PS3? The game does have updates that it grabs online... but I wouldn't think it would fix crashing. Then again, maybe the first update fixed crashing or something.

When I recently played online... it didn't ask me for any updates... do you think I have to remove my cod4 saved data in order to fix this issue... however this will not affect my online stats right?

Yes, I just got the game and it will turn off the whole PS3 after a few min. WTF!!!

I thought the PS3 was overheating until I read this post. This never happens with my other games.

That is correct, though I don't know if the fix will really help. Try it, I guess.

due to the graphic war nature of COD4 your PS3 is expeierencing what we like to call in the military as "COMBAT STRESS", during this time your ps3 may black out which would explain that auto shutoff. try to call a medic for more help or you can look online for possible solutions that may help you.

You are not the only one. I have had it reset on me mid game and I lose all my kills and stats for the match I was playing. I dont know what causes it though.

I found out what the problem was and unfortunetly it was the early stages of my PS3 breaking down. The problem started with COD4 and contiunally got worse until my system shut down dompletly and would not restart. Sony said that its likely to only happen with COD4 because the game requires your system to run hotter than most. Lucky my system was still under the 1 year warenty and I got it replaced. The game works fine now. Only problem is that when they replace your system, you lose everything on your hard drive, so back it all up if you get the chance.
