Sony and New PS3 250gb Bombed and i Switched to 360 Elite

Pics or it didn't happen.

Er it's the PSN games that you're only allowed to install on 5 different consoles.

damn that sucks about your DLC issue... and going thru over a g's worth of ps3's.

all video games are pretty fun so i bet you be ok with whatever you have.

wtf you edited your post 6 times? relax on the coffee

Congratulations. But, you won't have much better luck with xbox hardware.

pwned

This story was very entertaining and very believable.

Yeah, you just made a new account to tell us this? ha....

You could use that account just fine, but the DLC you have already downloaded on five consoles would not be free anymore. Thats what he is sayin, i think.MethodManFTW

I find it odd how you keep swapping one for the other. Why not both at the same time? Or just stick with 1

xbox great system but horrible hardware

got a ps3 and never looked back

Basically, you failed to deactivate the PS3s that you could deactivate and wound up in this situation, correct?SuperNecro

If you would take care of stuff things like this wouldnt happen.

What he said.^^^

Er, you can get Sony to deactivate them for you. I should know because I've asked them to do it before.

Riveting tale chap.

I must say it was.

Either

1. Your trolling, which wouldn't surprise me

2. You buy from unreliable sources, your own fault

3. You get angry when noobs beat you onlineand throw your consoles off your roof

OR

4. You have the worst luck of anyone in the world and, becasue of this,have already diedin somerandomcar accident by the time I post this message

Personally, the fourth sounds fun to me.

i believe what he is saying i think going to the xbox 360 was a knee jerk reaction it happens alot with consumers :P LOL

but seriously the 5 download limit sony has in place is correct. But if you call them and explain the story they will deactivate the other downloads and you can get the DLC you paid for again.

If the person you speak to isnt very good then demand manager. It works!

quick question:
if you had over $200 of DLC on the playstation, why would you trade it in for a 360 in the first place? Im assuming you got around$200 for the trade in towards your 360, where is the logic in this exactly? and where did the 250GB SKU bombing come in?

you know ppl would believe that if you were telling the story the other way around, i mean from x360 to a PS3.

I had 572,939 xbox 360 died on me. What proof I have you say? I'm posting on the internetz.kentaro22

Okay well first the problem with Sony : Is since the release of the PS3 i've owned a total of 6 of them at different times, i had hardware issues with 2 new ones and 2 used ones the 5th one was traded just because i didn't have the money for a 360 and wanted certain 360 exclusives so i traded up for the 360 and later went back to my 6th PS3, However when i went to set up my original PS3 account it wouldn't work. When i called Sony they told me that my account was used on 5 other PS3's and i told them that they were mine and some were defective and one i traded, but they have a rule that you can't put the same account on more than 5 PS3 consoles. However i had a couple of hundred dollars worth of DLC on my PS3 account that was gone, and there was no way of retrieving that DLC for the new account that they suggested i start, and therefore over $200.00 dollars in DLC was gone forever. Now secondly: Okay i decided to keep the PS3 regardless of my account issue because i love there exclusives and the fact that the online was free, and i had the latest and greatest model the new PS3 slim 250gb, and from day one i had issues with the PS3 recognizing the controller, and i would always have to turn the PS3 on and off 2 or 3 times before the controller was recognized, then days later i got 2 black screens when trying to get my PS3 to power up, and mere days after that a variety of different games were freezing up, and the main characters in the game would stop moving or just spin around in a circle while i watched my character get gunned down by enemies. Well that was the last straw i packed up my PS3 stuff and swapped everything out for a new 360 Elite, and it even looks like they may have reengineered the latest 360 models now because it looks like the power brick was cut in half and the wattage read 110w, so it looks like they may have finally redesigned it to a point where it will last longer and maybe not get a RROD at all, i can only hope, by the way i have owned more 360's in the past then PS3's and i have always been able to use my same account and enjoy all the content i purchased, well anyway so that's the whole long winded story of how things ended badly for me and Sony.CODnut

Who in their Right mind would buy PS3s off the wazoo and put them back in the Plastic they came in when not in use????

lol is ironic and funny the responses,when someone makes thread about their xbox 360 braking like 5 or 6 times,the other group of fanboys defend the TC to death and try to prove he is saying the true,but when is about the ps3 is just a lie and TC is just trolling and making things up,gotta love the fanboys here.Tessellation

I find it really uncommon for a PS3 to die.

Its possible that he is telling the truth however if he is there has got to be more to it than chance.
