Anybody know why 3.00 keeps giving me the yellow ligh off death frezzing my games and breaking my controllers?

Christopher_Walken5357d ago

Silly Cory.

We all know you don't own a PS3. Go back to your fireplace.

..."The ;ps3 owners are so desperate
For female contact that sony put human females in this game

So sony owners can get their first erection"

and then he claims to own a PS3 below.

Doh!!!

aLL IS COOL

Lifendz5357d ago

but so far it sparkles with me. (South Park reference)

Poopface the 2nd5357d ago

I found a temporary fix, that works for me on uncharted. Use the backup utility to backup your data on a usb stick, then do the QUICK format and use the restore utility to get back your settings and saves. Make sure you sync your trophies first as those arnt saved.

Once I did this I could get my game to load. Unfortunately it will still freeze sometimes and once it does you have to do this again or it wont load. Not sure if it will work for everyone, but it has worked twice for me so far.

I_am_rushin5357d ago

I hope they bring back the official PS3 microphone hud.

NewZealander5357d ago

yeah i hired out KZ2 and it froze on me, i wasnt sure if it was the update or just bad luck.

nice to know sony are on to it tho, im hanging out to get back into uncharted:(

ProperFunked5356d ago (Edited 5356d ago )

i was in the middle of playing COD4 online, and my console shut off completely, i tried restarting it only to to have the LED go green, turn yellow, then blink red. tried a few more times to no avail. this was after the shiny update. anyone else experience this, i have to pay $160 to get it fixed, and i totally forgot PS3 just had an update. could it be a possible cause, cuz i dont really wanna pay $160 for a faulty update.... mines the 80gb (CECHE01)

I haven't had any trouble at all. I guess I must be lucky, or my PS3 is afraid to break. Because I'm the Walken of Choice.

N4GAddict5357d ago

xabmol5357d ago

darkequitus5357d ago

This game deserves a remaster for current consoles. It was awesome on PS3.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv722d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii2d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast2d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM2d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife1d 14h ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit1d 9h ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife1d 7h ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
