YLOD

So I got my copy of L.A. Noire delivered from Amazon and went to pop it into my PS3 and whaddda know, ylod.  This was my bc 60 gig model, that I bought used off of Ebay. It had been repaired previously by Sony.  Luckily I kept the box Sony shipped to the original purchaser than to me, so I'm set to ship it.  I'm going to try out GopherMods as most of the reviews have been positive.

I feel for you brother. I wouldn't wish a YLOD on anyone. :(

Good to see that you'll still be able to play L.A Noire though. :D

That sucks man.

I had 2 PS3s die on me within 6 months of getting the first one and that was a time when I had no other way to play games.

I hate console deaths. I've had 2 360's die on me. So far, my PS3 that I bought in late 2007 has worked just perfectly. I actually have money and gift cards put away in case a PS3 death occurs. 

My Wii has been acting up. Part of the reason I divorced the bitch. Tech...what are going to do? Buy and buy again.

This is the only real reason I like the OnLive idea.. I can't wait til the day we can buy a gaming product and expect it to work 10+ years.

I got struck wth YLOD about a month ago. End result less money spent on games total and an increase in PC games played/spent money on. Too bad I cant play MLB 11 though.

Two playstation 3's is one too many.

dang that sucks. i hope that it works again. it's worse when you get a new game that just came out and it happens.

That sucks...reminds me of my launch-day 2006 60GB PS3 that died in May 2009 (with COD4: Modern Warfare stuck within it) due to the YLOD. My fat 2009 80GB PS3 is still ticking (but I am concerned since the fans have been acting up on it).

dang that sucks. i hope that it works again. it's worse when you get a new game that just came out and it happens.

I'm not 100% but I think there is a way to get the disc out of a ylod ps3. I did it by accident, the fan went on full blast and then back to ylod but the disc came out. but i think its an actual method.
