ok can someone help me here.

I was playin hoops 2k7, and it froze so i turned it off and on, and it froze again. I try again, and I get the 3 red lights, so I'm like damnit. I try once again to turn it off and on and I get the lights again. I wait about 5 minutes, turn it back on, andit's normal again. I'm guessing this won't last a while, but I;m wondering if this is normal

Also, if it did break and I had to send it in or whatever you do, will it keep the memory (season modes, progress in a game, etc.)

The same exact thing happened to me.  After a couple weeks it would just got straight to the three red lights.  I just sent it out Friday for repairs.  If you call Microsoft and make them aware of the problem, they will give you a reference number.  Next time you get the ring of death call in with your number and tell them it is done.

I ended up calling back 5 minutes after I got off the phone with them the first time.

Wow...I thought everyone knew this.  They even give you instructions on how to take out the drive in the PS3 manual.

Agreed.

I want to be able to customize my PS3 like I can with my x360.

 

Truth.  When my Xbox 360 was working, I had a sweet Porsche picture on it.

NO real problems, but my PS3 has froze a couple times. It mainly happens when I exit a game to the XMB.LosDaddie

 Yeah I have had a few freezes, but it's basically a computer and computers freeze all the time.

[QUOTE="bluegender"]Ps i only buy the offical brand stuff but that's just me,I like using the best on my gaming consoles and etc because 2nd and 3rd rate companies stuff tend to f*** your s*** updeadpool51

 

Waste of money.

i think its a waste of money too but honestly, if something breaks with the PS3 and you arent using a offical sony PS3 perephial or wire it viods the warrenty, read the warrenty legal notes.

 

An HDMI cable isn't going to break the system.  If it did, Sony would have provided one with it.

Because I am not.

I was just curious.  I don't want to start a whole 360 vs. PS3 thing, but I own both and my 360 just died.  Needless to day I am very very annoyed right now.  I have been doing some research and it seems that there is a rash of people with dying 360's lately. 

I was just wondering if the PS3 is fairing any better.  I haven't heard much in the way of PS3's dying.

i am on number 7 YAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!sixgears2

 

That's ridiculous.  I just had mine die yesterday.  I hope I don't have this to look forward to.  Microsoft seems to have some huge quality issues.

Why is anyone looking forward to killzone2 so much....am i the only one who remembers how bad the first one wasArsenal140

 

The first one was really good.  What are you talking about?  I actually played through it a few times just because I had so much fun the first time.
