Unfortunately sounds like your laser is shot. if the disc inserted icon is showing yet no discs will be recognized in there relevent places on the xmb then i'm afraid your laser is most definatley...to put it technically...caput. if you have warranty use it immediatley.

My ps3 will read dvds, but wont even recognize that there is a game in the system

Replace the lens. For some people it is hard to do it. Just buy the whole PS3 DVD DRIVE then you dont have to replace the lens. The price should be less than $50. It is better than giving it to sony and waste you money plus they change your motherboard with old ones they have. Run away from them.

DVD play on my 60gb PS3 but games wont!

It's a Sony defect with the blu-ray lasers. They only last 1-3 years with average use. If your PS3 is less than a year old and you still have the original receipt Sony will repair the problem for free. Otherwise they're going to charge you $150 for the repair. You can reach them at: 1-800-345-SONY

Unless you have a technical background in electronics there's nothing I would suggest doing. A firmware update and or CD /DVD cleaner disk will do nothing for your problem. I've fixed more than 100 PS3's with this exact problem so I know exactly what I'm talking about.

Sony playstation 3 wont read or load game disc

Hi
You are covered by a 12 month warranty from Sony it sounds like the laser is not reading the discs but check to see if the auto start feature is turned on in the settings menu as then the game will automatically start when the disc is inserted
I hope this helps Nick

Ps3 wont read games discs

ts a problem with the latest download update. sorry to say but its a job for sony as long as its still under warranty. just phone them up explain the probs your having and they will send you a new (normally reconditioned) unit out. sony's replacement service is very good.
