@nekusakuraba: I wouldn't know. I didn't get mine repaired. I got a new one like 2 years later. If you want to play GTA V and any other titles coming out this year like Beyond, GT6, or Rain, I suggest just getting a new PS3. Try looking for one cheap. If not, if you're getting a PS4, pray they put the titles you want to play onto Gaikai. Or find a friend who has a PS3.
I definitely want my PS3 back, I have a big backlog with stuff like Infamous 2 and Last of Us I have to get around to!
I have two options from this point -
Use the hairdryer trick to get all my data off the machine, and then dump it (or send it into sony so they can send me back a refurbished one.)
The Pros? I get all my data back, and get to sync my trophies and it's free!
The Cons? It will melt some of the PS3 case, and I don't know if it'll even work. It wont last long.
Or I can get a reball for $80
The Pros? Will last longer, no melted ps3 case.
The Cons? Might have to just buy a new ps3 anyway, and that $80 could be a waste of money just for an extra 2 months of using this one.
