Added on October 27, 2010, 10:46 am QUOTE(nwk @ Oct 27 2010, 10:39 AM) Unless you are very rich to buy a new slim ps3, it's cheaper to send it back to sony for repairs. it it's a permenant fix, i'll go to Sony..if not, better get slim.. it's cheaper now days.. sell this-almost-ylod-unit for around 300-400 then topup and buy slim.. and make installment for 3 month for dat slim.. hahaha.. cilaka i'm so desperate now.. COD7 coming!  This post has been edited by munzamir: Oct 27 2010, 10:46 AM |

QUOTE(nwk @ Oct 27 2010, 10:51 AM) YLOD has nothing to do with the hard disk. It's the thermal paste on your fat ps3 that is wearing out. I recommend you send it back to Sony because it's still cheaper then buying a new slim, since your ps3 is official my set and not some import sg set. AI AI BOSS! |

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Nov 3 2010, 05:38 PM) as for sony malaysia response, they are correct... sometimes internet connection can become unstable, likely that our online games might hang/freeze... hence need to restart ps3 "ylod symptom is when ur ps3 experience loud fan and the game u're playing restarted the ps3, even shutdown in most cases" as for certain titles, ps3 freezes due to game bugs... for ylod symptom, it is not... its normal ... just restart ps3 and its all ok ylod symptom is when ur ps3 experience loud fan and the game u're playing restarted the ps3, even shutdown in most cases happened to me recently.. FAT MY 80GB SET every few minutes it will auto shutdown. simple solution = buy SLIM and for the YLOD console, gonna do a surgery for replacing the thermal paste..

PS3 is really tough!
my small nephew knock it over, it dropped to the floor (about 5 feet) and then the only fault is the hardisk, couldn't detect!! and thats about it.. oh man i was damn scared just now.. tried to connect the hardisk to my PC, couldn't detect it.. pheww.. luckily it's not the console.. just bought a new WD 500GB from lowyat.. now the tedious part, downloading back the PSN content! arghhh i did not back up anything.. |

QUOTE(xaxier83 @ Nov 8 2010, 02:20 PM) Hi guys yeah it's cheaper.. most of the R2 games..Just want to know what is the disadvantages of buying a R2? I planned to buy a R2 FFXIII and it seem to be much cheaper than the rest of the regions. Do I lose out anything by buying a R2 FFXIII? but if u're a DLCs kaki, you will having a problem to get the DLCs.. as the UK PSN topup is card hard to get.. let say u got this FFXIII R2 game and then u wanna DLC for the game, u need to have UK PSN account in order to download the DLC.. so that is the trouble lah... the rest is the same, content is the same, u can play the game as per normal.. |
