Since the PSP Go (R.I.P) and the PS Vita are digital only devices, shouldn't Sony allow us to send in old UMDs to have those games / Movies registered to our accounts? Many of our favorite games won't be re-made.
1) Proprietary memory stick? What, the Memory Stick Pro Duo isn't good enough? 2) If they aren't stating, then the cameras must be VGA instead of 3 - 12 MP? 3) No mention of internal storage space (yet), like the PSP Go (R.I.P).
I'm still new, but will Microsoft make something like PS Home where these newly improved avatars can interact with each other online (more like the movie "Gamer")? Would you want to interact with other avatars online?
It's only a matter of time before they decide to digitally release PS2 titles via the PSN. They might as well give b/c to those who don't have a b/c system.
Ps2 titles on the PS3 / 4 or the NGP / PSP2. That, or re-make all the PS2 Greatest hits with better graphics / audio.
I am considering getting my son the new model 360 (black w/ 250 Gb hd), and I would take his old one (origional release model w/ 20 Gb hd).
Basically, what's the easiest way to transfer all his data from the old system to the newer one? Also, could I just get a 4 Gb system and pop-in a 500 Gb hd?
I have a couple of guild-mates who (for various reasons) only have BC installed. My question is, can they get Cataclysm and install it when it's released, or do they have to get WotLK first?
I just dealt with the very same problem no more than a week ago. First off, it's not very difficult to remove your blu-ray from the drive. Beware though that after removing a disc from the drive that the drive will remain locked. There is a very easy way to disengage the locking of your drive though. link Not the best picture quality, but it should help you out. Second, now you need to determine if your up for trying to fix your PS3 yourself or not. It's not overly difficult, but it does take a few hours to get through it. I recommend that you go to youtube and look up PS3 YLOD Gilksy fix. There are six videos which are numbered part 1, part 2 ... they will walk you through the fix. You will need some tools, a heat gun and thermal compound. Good luck.

Thank you. I got my Blu-ray out. :) Now, I'm going to see if I can fix my power supply. Worse comes to worse, I'll send it to be repaired, but I'm keeping my hard drive. They are more fragile than some people would like to believe.
My 60 Gb model PS3 finally went out. The real problems are that I have a Blu-ray in the drive that I can't get out, and I never backed up my game data. So, the question now is should I send my (out of warranty) PS3 to Sony and risk them swapping out mine for another without copying my data / retrieving my blu-ray, or should I go with a local repair place?
Also, if I get it repaired by Sony, do I get a 1 year warranty to go with it?

Whats Wrong with your PS3? Do you know cause that would basically decide weather or not to send it away.
EDIT: No you do not get a 1 year warrenty if you send it away.
From all that I've read, it was either the contact between the chips and the heat sink (which I already took care of myself), or the power supply.
i wouldn't do either. Just get a new slim. Cances are your 60gb model will just mess up again because these "repairs" seem to be pretty temporary.

I need to get my Blu-ray out, and save my game files. I tried putting my hard drive in another PS3, but soon as I turned it on, it wanted to format my disk instead of letting me back up my game saves.
