guys i have a problem.
lately my ps3 been shutting down, when i check 'game data', i suspect it was the hdd, so i did full format and it worked for awhile, but after 1 day same thing happen. this also happens when i load a game, b4 the game is load at all. means, i open a game, immediately shut down.
i took out the hdd and wipe/clean abit, and put it back in. now it works ok, but i'm pretty sure it will come back to haunt me soon. replacing the hdd seems like my only choice atm.
i can play games ok for now but i worried this might be related to ylod or more serious issues. i will buy a new hdd to replace this and see how it goes.
as for the ps3, its slim and bought last year feb 2010, same time as ff13 released

worse case scenario... buy new ps3 slim. and it will be the last console i buy this gen. currently on 2nd console...
try change the hdd 1st.i think the prob is the hdd bcoz when u format/remove it the console is ok for a while.
