This may be caused by a dirty laser in the drive. Try cleaning the laser with a q-tip and alcohol. If cleaning the laser doesn't fix the problem, then the laser may need to be replaced. Contact Sony to see if the unit is still under warranty at this site: https://service1.us.playstation.com/rma.htm?_flowExecutionKey=_c4EA0A7DF-3DE3-428B-B077-6362FF660DD3_k1A616CCF-5052-5914-627C-EAD3CA0A4144

If the unit is not under warranty, go to: www.wiredextreme.com. We are a console repair company based out of Dallas, Tx. We can clean/replace the laser. All of our repairs come with a 90 day warranty for the whole console, not just what we repair. We also offer extended warranties for up to 4 years at an additional cost.

Playing MLB the Show on PS3. Game loads fine, franchise I've been playing loads fine. But once I try to play a game, bar starts as game loads then game cuts off and goes to main PS3 screen.

Is your CD dirty or does it have any cracks? It might just be the problem. Otherwise, it could be corrupt game data. Clean the disc, if it still doesn't work I'd try deleting the game utility data and re-downloading it. Hope this helps in some way or another.

My ps3 wont load ps3 games

Hi,

This problem is common with the PS3 and typical of a failure of the bluray drive. It can sometimes be resolved by cleaning the laser pickup lens but often the lens itself needs to be replaced.

For a full breakdown on the issues involved please view this FixYa Tip.

Thanks for using FixYa.
