Just got myself a PS3 Scarlet Red!!! It's still easy to find?? Coz when I asked, the salesman told me it was a reserved unit but the pre-owner never claim it for 1 week ady so he sell it to me, and yea, free HDMI cable too was told that this limited edition shouldn't come with the HDMI but he just give me, so is that true??

i just get a new PS3 for my gf 2 months back. Under-utilizing it, like 3-5 hours of gaming weekly only. Its placed on well ventilated area, clean from dust weekly and never dropped before.

The problem is, now i installed FIFA13 on it, and it freezed occasionally, no fixed time, we can play 3 hours straight without problem, or sometime after 10 minutes. I also noticed before the PS3 go freezed, the screen somehow flashed or come out with few lines like old TV going kaput.

Anyone know what's this symptom is or any problem with the GPU?? Need to send back for warranty??

Nope. Its FIFA13 from physical disc. I do not experience freeze when playing other games like final fantasy 13, gran turismo 5, and some PS Move games. Maybe haven't.

Bro i checked. No hairline scratch, not even a particle of visible dust. Just now played for 4 hours staright without any problem. Very weird. I dun expect a 2 months old Ps3 to hav this kinda issue. Anyway, let me constantly monitor on it during this weekend. If it happens to freeze again, i'll ask for further adice here.

Thank u and everyone who gave me advices and guidelines here. Appreciates it.
