My first Playstation 3 had a faulty Blu-Ray drive, my second Playstation 3 had a faulty graphics chip (and a dodgy Multi-AV port – unrelated).

Looks like you got a result there then. I have been toying with the idea of getting a console for a few months now and was going to be a straight duke out between the PlayStation 3 and the X360. After a pretty long weekend on Fight Night and Pro Evo then the PS3 is firmly on the shopping list over the next three months or so.

What was the problem with your PS3 in the first place ?

Oh I forgot to mention, lately my PS3 seems to be having trouble reading off my Burnout disc (I haven’t tried any other games yet) – like when I picked my car from the garage I pressed Accept to go to the paint menu and it took a while to come up – meanwhile the music stopped but I was still able to move the camera. I hope it doesn’t pack in just before GTA and MGS4 are released

lol, thankfully it was a different guy. This was Parceline, the other company was City Link. I think he’d be afraid to come back to be fair.

So far, so good with the PS3. In fact, it’s been brilliant, everything is running like lightning and worked first time. It’s also quieter than my 2nd one (it’s like my first one). Unfortunately I can’t get anything downloaded as PSN is down so I can’t even log in.

It was only when I set this PS3 up that I remembered that I forgot to back up my Final Fantasy VII save… gutted. Never mind, must start again.

You offered him your John Hancock? You sure it wasn’t just your cock like last time? :p

Anyways, have fun with the console mate. While it lasts that is. (I have a feeling it won’t be long till your next call to Sony…)

Nope, I only get 3 months on this. On the plus side I just wrote this post on my Playstation 3!

Nice result (again!) mate, lets all ‘Knock on Wood’ that nothing happens to this one

What about the warranty for this one, do you get an entire year from today?

That’s not going to happen. The fix the faulty component and send it out in a new case. They won’t give you a 40gb model (mainly because they can’t :p).

Apparently they have enough components to support all the 60gb models.

At least you’re getting 60GB models back. I’d go ballistic if they only offered a 40GB without the back compat.
