The blu ray drive itself isn't keyed into the PS3 but the power board on the blu ray drive is, that's why if you were replacing it you keep the original drive power board and you can install the working drive and laser.In an effort to learn some technical aspects of the PS3, I have been doing some experimenting with working and no working PS3s..
I came across something that was interesting.
I had a working system built up with a motherboard from a working PS3 and a BluRay drive from another PS3 where the motherboard was bad. The system would boot up, but would not play any downloaded Demos, nor would it recognize any DVDs or Game disks put in the BluRay drive.. I tried a second BluRay drive with the same results. It's possible, but unlikely that both drives are bad..
So, I put the BluRay Drive back on that was assosciated with the working MB and viola'.. Everything was good and right with the world and peace descended from the heavens.. Well, no... Not really. But my PS3 was fully functional..
So, this leads me to one inescapable conclusion. That the BluRay drive is keyed to the motherboard.
Can anyone confim this?
Thanx

This game does not run in full 1080p, I also tried running it in 1080p and it looks awful I think its just up scaling from 720p so the textures look jaggy and washed out . Put it in 720p and you will see the difference, This game looks excellent in 720pok so i just picked up Ressistance 2 about 30 mins ago and just started it 5 mins ago,,,,,, im in pause now becuase i have just a few questions...
1) is this a PS3 game?
2) are they serious about the graphics?
3) no, no,,,,,really? r they serious about these graphics,,,THEY LOOK WORSE THAN THE FIRST RESSITANCE
4) is there like some sort of setting to change the graphics, to make them higher quality?
yes people im playing on a full HD 1080p samsung tv

oh and 1 more thing, in the first cut scene, the helicopter landed on ice,,,why? lol CUMON....

anyone you do this? I do this very often, i hit the edge of the disc on the PS sign and then put it in the slot. lolSiKh22When I am drunk I do this often, but hey when im drunk just looking at the xmb amuses me.
halo 2 still takes the cake. COD: WAW and resistance 2 are the best I have seen this gen thoughDon't want to sound like a stereo type but its got to be Call Of Duty 4. Metal Gear Online is really good aswell.
I know it's not on PS3 but I used to be addicted to Call Of Duty 1 and Call Of Duty United Offensive on the PC.
What are your favorites?.

I don't think so, unless you want your console to overheat like mad. The PS3 is fine the way it is.Furi-KunExactly, it looks nice and it has excellent ventilation to keep it cool. I don't know anything about the PS3 slim all I can say is it's most likely years away and by that time the regular PS3's will be much less expensive. At that time I would really see no point in buying a slim because like the PS2 and PSX the slim model was more expensive, and with the PS3 already looking sleek, I see no reason in waiting for this model to come out.
