i have the 60 gb(My Baby) and a 40gb. the 4o just went to to texas for repair because the fans constantly blow at 100%. My 60 just runs smooth and quiet. here is my service status:

This a great deal. New console with game and perhaps a xbox item to go with it, cant beat that. I alway buy the extended warranties from best buy and that 50 could go towards a nice reassuring 3 year warranty.
pimpin aint easy man
WAS confused there for a sec. thought for a brief sec pog had come over to the dark side.
that was really lame like a sales spike didn't count.
i will get this game day1 i wish that there was some more new media images too look at though. i really think ubisoft should really start promoting this game because the release date of this title will be surrounded by some big blockbusters. what to do with so many great titles this late spring early summer.
Actually i never played due to the controls issue. Maybe now is my chance
those older madden games and tecmo bowl rocked :)
hehe this is kool eager to find out what it is
I think us gamers won this round we brought these companys to their knees with what we want and its working.
I sometimes think if all sudden their was only 1 next gen console and the wii meaning only 360 or ps3 at once i would like either. Most these consoles come down to preference. Ive already Rma'd 2 ps3s 1 60gb and 1 40gb. I lost 4 360s so none of these consoles are super machines guaranteed to always work. i probably jumped on the fanboyism bandwagon for a few posts but didnd make me feel good to favor a machine. I walked into gamestop today and was blown away by all the 360 titles that i havnt...
Sony should just slapped an 8800 gtx in their rig and called it a day. I mean if its that complicated to design for and developers are making crappy experiences for the machine. I hear way too many of these stories and the end result is poorer games supposedly a superior machine. Makes no sense to me at all. Look at half life 2 on the ps3 looks like pure crap compared to the pc version.
dat ass would eat you
3 red lights lit up my 360 while reading this q&a and shut off right after. mhh
ya man i was actually thinking the same thing. Every demo ive seen looked alot bland and all the screenies look very well textured colored and filtered.
still buying it
my 40gb took a dump today the fans decided to run at 100% at 72f ambient temp then locked up. now the fans run at a consistant 100%. called sony to fix that f@ker. :(
i agree partially but free flowin fans wont damage sh!t. compressed air is fine been doing it for years just dont apply full pressure against your unit and you should be fine with short bursts :)
i got this game a few days ago and its so repetitive i cant sit there and keep playing the same thing over and over. send your guys to the door, use snake cam to see who is behind it, then clear area sh1t gets boring. i liked graw2 alot better but i think the controls in rv62 better
guy is a noob looking for attention. dont ruin ur ps3 to spin the fans faster.
Anything can break. Just some more so than others. Some of it is user contributed while others are merely faulty electronics etc
