My ps3 slim bluray drive is broken, I bought it 10 months ago, don't have the receipt. Sony says you need the receipt to get it fixed for free If I were to get them to send me a shipping box and I just send it to them without the receipt anyways.... what will they do? Is there any chance they will go ahead and do it for free?ercyoung
Maybe you should register your PS3 and purchase date on the official Playstation website-you need to enter its serial number,and then i'm sure you will be able to get repaired without even showing a receipt.

Hi all.I'm soon to be coming back to XBox-just pre-ordered the new 360 with 4GB flash onboard.

I used to love playing Battlefield 2-Modern Combat online.Is it still possible to play it online,or have the servers been shut down now?-only i will re buy it if you can still play online.

"Before our next call in October, we expect to be launching a major new version of our Sony PS3 user interface which doesn't require a disc and is dynamically updated continuously with the latest Netflix UI improvements."

About time!The only reason I don't use Netflix on PS3 is because of the lame disk thing, it's a tedious thing to do each time. But this is very good news to me, especially since it's getting improved. Anyone else pleased over this news?

Not really bothered-I got cable tv for watching films and programmes

Its got a very steep asking price but I'm wondering if its worth it at the moment. I'm aware you can get free things but I cannot find much. Thanks All.Tomspur97

Looks to me as you'll be paying for the stuff we were getting for free just a few weeks ago,apart from the free full games-which,so far,aren't ones i'd want anyhows.

[QUOTE="Fightingfan"]Is it free? Like Can I use it to watch Lost. (PS+ user)JoKeR_421
u can request a invite, and ull get 30days or somethin like that to try for free, but after that its 9.99 a month..............those who didnt sign up with PS+ will also get it within few weeks i beleive

Yea-I read the Very same here on Gamespot-That it will be available to all PSN users in a week or so and that it's $9.99 per month whether you've subscribed to PSN+ or not.

hey guys

i bought a slim 120g2 weeks ago

but i really feel the hot air coming from the back panel and the cables gets realy hot and the cover near the back is hot as well .

is this normal ?

and by the way when i play some games i can hear the ps3 body giving a sound like a "crack" like the body is stretching or smthn

is this normal too as it is new?

thanks guys

harrypotter_fan

Yea-My 120GB slim has done exactly the same from day one when i aquired it brand new back in Feb.Cracking sounds are just the casing expanding once it warms up-Don't worry about it.

Perhaps the newer version slim wont have the cracking noise-Thats the one with the even smaller chipset,that will run cooler than present slims.

And if so, will Sony cover the repair even if the console is out of warranty?

Very easy to upgrade your HD in your present slim-And Heck!-You could bung in a Western digital Scorpio blue 500GB-Probrably tons better than the Bog standard drive Sony will put in the white 320GB!
