My first YLOD... ugh...

Archive: 13 posts


And it was while working in Create Mode too. Gonna have to bring out my Torx screwdriver won't I? Oy... that means no LBP2 for a week or two.

At least my back-ups are up to date in case I need to send it to Sony.

Welcome, to the YLoD club! I myself have had the YLoD, not once, not twice, but twice!(Yes, I know I put twice in two times )
But really, sorry to hear It's bloody annoying to get :kz:

Yup, I'm on my 3rd PS3 - having had YLoD twice;

But nowhere near as bad as the Xbox360 - I'm on my 6th machine with that - having had 5 RRoD.

The process for the swap out was so much easier with Sony than with Micro$haft.

I know how you feel if not worse. I am on my second PS3 plus I had no backs up and I coulndt find my PSN login so I had to start over from scratch! I was half way throught making my first level too. Since my warrenty expried I had to get a new machine entirely...but before I get depressed all I have to do is remeber I am not an Xbox 360 gamer because those poor guys have had troubles... 2011-02-19 03:18:00

I got the YLoD right after I got my PS3... If you have an old 80Gig, give it a gental slap right on the top, it fixed mine. Fixed my broken PS1 too actually... And my PS2... Sony consoles just need a bit of discipline when they don't want to work.2011-02-19 06:34:00

Seriously though, this is never good to hear. Hope you get it sorted out soon.

Really? So is it just PS2 games that don't run on originals?
