Title: YLOD
Post by: Viper_Fujax on June 03, 2014, 05:15:42 PM

it finally happened

I have a fat, launch ps3 and came home to my gf playing skyrim on my computer. "Why are you playing it on the computer now?"  "the playstation beeped at me"


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU


so her copy of skyrim is stuck in my ps3. luckily i beat last of us a second time recently so I think I'm done playing ps3 games, but it still sucks

anyone know any solutions that arent retarded, like half of them are on youtube? at least a fix long enough to get skyrim out of it

Try this

Failing that it looks like its the hairdyer trick or opening the thing up.  :D

If you have a decent library of ps3 games and don't want a new one I'd say just get a used ps3 slim and swap the hard drives. It'll be like you never lost it. Plus used ps3s will soon drop to a really cheap price.

yup, had to take it apart.

Hopefully there's a decent price drop on ps3 during E3, not that I'm in that much of a rush to get one. Just sucks since this one had backwards compatibility

Wonder if gamestop still buys broken consoles

Wouldn't hurt to try. Sucks its hard getting a backwards compatible ps3. Those things fetch a high price in the used market.
