Hmmm wonder if there's any point sending my PS3 in to 'check'. But since only Uncharted 2 causes the shutdown... i'd be afraid though to 'demonstrate' the shutdown, since it may lead straight into the YLOD doh.gif:
Or i'll just get a Slim just for U2 sleep.gif
whatdya guys think?

someone that voted in 80GB and 160GB [both non-BC] should come out and clarify their model, the poll is somewhat confusing, its better to use model number to define

Hrmm.. I'll relate my 'near-death' experience.
My set is a 80G SG model. Bought in Nov 07 if i'm not mistaken.

No problems whatsoever..until I d/l the U2 beta,
Could play 1 round of co-op, but then when I ventured on to a 2nd round...bam! PS3 shut down with the red blinking lights. Pretty terrified so i hard-offed the PS3 from the switch at the back. Switched back on and it was fine, tried to U2 again..same thing.

After that was kinda scared so deleted the demo and that's that.
Few weeks went by, got the game, played about 30 mins, and the same thing happened. On offed the ps3.. tried to play again and it shut down within 5 mins. Well after that yeah, haven't touched it since laugh.gif

Can play all other games fine. That day played PES for 4-5 hours straight.
The fan has been loud before, but it's never switched off.
Uncharted 2 is the only game that does this sad.gif

Not only uc2, i found that Gt5p and nba 2k9 also have this auto shutdown isue. Because there are high speed reading type game can make cpu and gpu get hot so quick.

I also downloaded U2 demo but play 3 times only coz I suck when playing TPS game. My PS3 never hang n my fan never run in full speed.
However I noticed now my PS3 fan will run on turbo mode if my room quite hot, especially in the
afternoon. So I put cooling fan (industrial grade) n no more turbo mode if I play PS3 with the cooling fan on.

Maybe you guys can try this nod.gif. Mine is 40GB SG set  icon_rolleyes.gif

How old your ps3? This will not happen if it still new.

i thinks it not fair to assume 40gig has the highest LYOD problem

perhaps, most ppl purchase the cheapest model of 40 gig
