Once while playing Super Rub a'Dub. But I deserved it for playing that. I'm guessing it was a software memory leak or something and not hardware related.

True. My Atari 2600 still freezes, same with my Gameboy, NDS, N64, PSone, etc.

They all freeze up on time or another.

Mine froze a few times on Assassins Creed usually only within the first few minutes, if it got past that then it would be fine. It has also frozen on me a couple of times in NFS Carbon usually during a 2 player race. Never had a problem with anything else though.

Morrowind freezes for everybody. All of the interactable items in the gameworld are far too much for the programming or something like that...it was too ambitious.

I was worried at first but from reading post after post about it. It seems as if everyones system will freeze from time to time. mine froze twice when i was in the web browser and once in warhawk. Both i thing were caused from being online. other times i think its cause of a game...when you reset jus tmake sure you hold the power button on the front of the unit so it can shutdown right and DO NOT push the switch on the back to power it off...

freezing happens on every console, and PC's

it happens

Seems like the only SONY related freezes are because of the internet browser.

Games are really the dev's fault and they send out patches to fix those problems, I'm talking to you Ubisoft (AC). (however Sony doeshave firmware patches that make PS3 more efficient)

The PS3 has been out for over a year, if the freezing was taking too much from gameplay, or if it happened way to often then it would have a firmware update and sites everywhere would be, yet again, sticking Sony news everywhere.

After you power down the system and back on it is fine and it rarely does it. Unlike Microsofts Xbox 360, i've had to take back 3 of them backthat didn't even last a year. Still got my PS3 from its first shipment when it was released.

Sometimes when I play different game it will freeze on me.

However, keep in mind that it's not because of PS3, but it's the games fault itself. PS3 has been released steady and decent upgrades for it's firmware and so far they have been very good.

The next time game freezes on you, it's not because of your PS3 not working properly..

Mine only froze during this summer when I was using the Internet Browser since I didn't own a computer of any kind at the time. I was out of the gaming loop so bad then...
