just called sony, they said i can contact them again with a reference number, to get someone to collect my ps3 for free, and then i will recive a brand new ps3 of the same model for a price of £128, clearly cheaper than buying a new one soo i might just try it out… still cant believe this lol

well cheers for the support, but i left it off all night in a cool place and still wont work.. i have no idea what to do… my ps3 is the original 60GB, outside of warranty is contacting sony my best bet??? if i do get a refurbished ps3, will i need to create a new account?? what exactly will i lose?? just my saves? trophies? account? please help lol

Im sure your account wont be lost . I mean im pretty sure its saved on Psn itself , since ive signed into my account off other Ps3s . Not to mention after deleting my first account a year ago i still have it as a friend on my PSN list haha .

I've got an original 60GB PS3 other than the occasional freezes it's been fine. Haven't had any of these problems with not showing friends last sign-in. I really hope I don't get that yellow light of death though!

i bought extended warranty so because they dont make the 60 gig anymore i got that instead. although i was serprised with the amount cos it was more than enough for a new ps3 the only thing that i can think of it was incase i wanted to buy a ps2 aswell.

i got this a couple of months ago!

i have the original 60GB and it supposedly happened to me cos i left it in a place without much space.

sony dont give you a new one for free nor do they fix it for free, if they do fix yours they may swap your HDD as well leaving you with out all your game data and saves, meaning you have to start over again on online games etc. but you can still get back onto your account and keep your trophies if you remember your email and password.

your best bet would be get it fixed at grainger games (if youve heard of it) becos its only £100 and comes back around 2/3 weeks whereas sony normally take 1 month i think.

hope this helps as i feel your anger!

good luck.

My cousins PS3 broke, outside of warranty, and Sony replaced his PS3 with a refurbished one for free. It works like new. You only lose your saves, unless you back them up on a USB Drive, or External HDD, which i would recommend doing for everyone, you never know if your PS3 is just going to break down..
