I can play movie, or Blue ray but i can not play game.

Yes this can be the laser that is slightly off, all you need to do is readjust this.
You can do this at home with a good repair guide or send it in and they will fix it for you for a fee.
1) Restart your PlayStation 3.
2) Check for any loose cables. If so, put them back in and start your ps3 again.
3) Put out your hard drive and put it back in again.
4) Delete all your saved games and install files. Delete everything that has to do with your games.
Nothing worked? Oh.. what a shame isn't it? It always has to be on the hard way to fix your PS3 not reading games problem.. Let's check out the last 2 options you have.
You could send your console back to Sony. This might sound like a good idea to let them fix your PS3 problem, but take a look at this. They first have to send you a shipping box - takes 1 week. Then you have to send it back, that's 1 week also, then there's the repair phase, takes 2 weeks. And after that they will send it back to you again, that's 5 weeks you have to wait!! Also, if you don't have your warranty anymore, you will have to pay $150 for the repair. Quite expensive for a small fix like this.
