it's a fatty all right, but of course the later fatty where they dropped the backwards compatibility :') no yellow light for me ever, but uh-- few months after jailbreaking, when i try to play something, the fan freaks out and it turns off. I haven't tried a disc, or leaving it in the menu, or any of the other apps or web browser, or factory resetting it-idr if that's even possible.I even had Eternal Sonata on it lol
Sounds like a heating problem with the console. These things are basically computers. I think replacing the thermal paste would be worth a try from what I am reading. I haven't done it with my Slim model even though those fans are really loud.
I figured it was heating issues because I had a similar problem with my X230T when I did a poor repasting job on my CPU. I did right the second time and my laptop doesn't shut off randomly anymore.
hmmmm i do have plenty of thermal paste. thanks, maybe I'll try it... I do miss it a little. I think I was right in the middle of Dark Sector. I was having too much fun, I had to be humbled.
I beat Eternal Sonata close to its launch. Cool game. The battles do get repetitive though.
havent read yet but i remember the Eternal Sonata demo on 360 was soooo good
enjoy ps3! def one of the last good consoles. mine stopped working v_v im too lazy to care, but i loved it.
Is it the fat model? Those have yellow light of death issues. The slim ones are more reliable but no PS2 dvd support :^(
