DEEP FREEZE my ps3 keeps freezing on me it had been working fine for over a year now and when I started playing fallout 3 it all went down hill. I could play for anywhere to five to thiry mins and then that game would freeze. however once i hit the eject button the game would start playing again. so i bought a intercooler and that didn't seem to help so I figure it's probably not overheating and last night I tried doing a complete restore. I hope this does the trick but I have yet to have a chance to give it a try. Anyone with any other tips or maybe a dollar figure that playstation charges to fix this problem I would be greatful.

Fallout 3 freezing

Well your disc is officially garbage because it's for sure scratched. Don't bother trying to fix your game disc. Do what I did. Go to sellitbroken.com and sell your game to them. They will give you good money for it.

PS3 froze occassionally and now games won't load

I wish it was just the lens. However you as many of us, will need to replace the HDD (Hard Disc Drive) of the machine. And yes Sony will do that for the $.

Ps3 keeps freezing on games only

Try using a can of air to blow out the fan area. Even though its well ventilated it may be full of dust. It sounds like an overheating issue. Also look into aftermarket fan/cooling solutions, that dont plug directly into the PS3 and have there own outlet power plug.
