Ps3 will not play games

Dude I have this same problem!! Ever since the first time I loaded Madden 11 content, I've had nothing but problems. I thought I fried my console because nothing would load up, kept getting frozen. Only after I ripped out all saved Madden content was I able to play any of my games. WTF!! 60 bucks for what??

sounds like a dead Laser they are a dual laser will read DVDs n CDs but wont read Blueray movies or PS3 games Laser might need replacing

It should work after a long time if you traded because the settings are different on different disks

This is a tough one to diagnose, I'd recommend trying to clean the blu-ray drive with a cd / dvd cleaner cd.

Try this first, since it's easy to do and we'll go from there.

buy a kem-400aaa lens and motor kit install it yourself loads on videos on youtube on how to fit it mines done exactly the same ive been to to do this

what you have to do is turn it on and go on to settings. then format the system and wait for it to reset then start it up again and try it. (back up your info first!)
if that doesnt work ring sony and state the problem they should send you a new or refurbished ps3. but you'll need it in warrenty.

You need to change the resolution output on your PS3 to match the capabilities of your TV. If your TV is not HD you can't leave the PS3's video output on HD. SCART is for european television connections. Have you tried using component cables? Have you tried changing your tv's source to Video 1 or Component 1 or HDMI or anything that might work? Good luck!!

clen the disc that happen to me to gta 4 too

you need to reformat it it sounds like

your blue ray is fried and there is nothing you can do sad to say...i have the same problem ring sony and they will give you good advice... they will even send you out a new ps3 for free!!!!! thats the only thing you can do
