These playstations do create a lot of problem. I have got both PS1 and PS2 and they are now creating some problems. So what i thought is the best way to get out of this is to play online games and enjoy them without any problem.

Ok your laser is bad. You need to replace it. Your laser has a blu ray diode which lights up blue and reads ps3 games and blu ray games. Then it has a red diode which plays ps2 games dvds cds ps1 games. Your blu ray diode is burned up. You will have to replace the laser its pretty simple.

Wont read games and only some blu rays but will play dvds and cds and ps2 games

The blu-ray laser is a 3 part laser (cd dvd and blu-ray) the blu-ray portion has failed. The only way to fix it is to swap the laser out with a working one.
It's not hard to do, there are 1000 tutorials on youtube.

My playstation 3 stopped playing playstation 3 and playstation 1 games. It will only play dvd's.

Your blu ray drive is shot. The drive motor has to operate much faster to read a game then it does a regular DVD. Eventually your PS3 wont play DVDs but will play CDs.. same reason.. then nothing.
I would consider replacing now. Ebay is a good place actually to buy good blu ray drives for cheap. if your not under warranty I could get you a guide on how to do it, or you could send it to me and I could do it for you. Either way. let me know

Won't play or ackowledge games

Will it play regular DVDs?
If it will play DVD's but not games then the blu-ray laser is bad. It will have to be replaced.
If it wont play either, then the drive is bad and must be replaced.
Both can be found on ebay. the swap isnt too hard but the components are a bit pricey.

PS3 80g only plays DVDs and PS2 games .... help

The reason why DVDS still work and the blu-rays don't is because it's a three part laser. dvd / cd / blu-ray.

The blu-ray portion almost always goes out first.

Playstation 3 Stopped Playing Blu Ray Discs and Games

It's a factory defect. I've fixed over 100 PS3's with the same exact problem. Your blu-ray laser went out. You need to contact Sony or if you're in Los Angeles you can contact me. I fix the problem for $120 and within 30 minutes. Sony charges $150+ and takes God knows how long.
