I was playing assassins creed brotherhood day before yesterday and out of the blue my ps3 shuts off and the red light flashed 3 times. I tried to turn it back on and as soon as it got to the home screen the same thing happened again. I let it cool off for about a half hour and turned it back on and backed everything up and it seems to be working fine now....did it just overheat? It aint the money I can buy another one no problem but I hate the look of these slims man :to: the phat is so classy looking I don't wanna let it go :to:

Dont listen to these other guys. :beli:

Get a vacuum cleaner and get all the extra dust from all the vents. If you dont have one, cop a ps3 air cooler, theyre cheap.

Had my phat since launch and it works fine, my slim was freezing and acting up until i got all that dust from up outa there. :obama:

It's only a matter of time breh :noah:

Haven't had one problem since I copped a slim. It's ugly as hell but it never overheats :ahh:

Got the 60GB joint fixed after it died, but retired it as soon as I backed everything up. Wasn't tryna take any chances :usure:

what pisses me off is that my ps2 that I've had since launch is still working perfectly. Me and some friends had a 3 hour session of capcom vs snk2 the other day with no problems....this new generation man I swear :beli:

how much could I get for a ps3 that's about to die? I may cop a slim tonight and put the old one or craigslist or some shyt. Yeah I know I could lie and say its works fine but I'm an honest dealer.
