So I am playing the Nationals and on my way to getting a trophy for a 3 pitch inning against the computer. First man up Willy Tavares flies out. Second man Nyjer Morgan flies out both on first pitch fastballs. Ryan Zimmerman comes up and I pitch him a high and away fastball which he pops up to Fontenot at second. I'm thinking alright I'm getting out with a 3 pitch inning cool. No Fontenot drops the ball. E4. I'm pissed but say **** it. Adam Dunn is up next and I throw him a slider in the dirt which he connects on and hits it out of Wrigley. WTF? So now my PS3 is broke. <.<

That was the first time it ever happened to me in this game. I hadn't seen anything like that since the show 06.

Just went and got another PS3. <.<

How did your PS3 break? Was it some glitch that froze your system or did you break it because you got pissed?

Fell off the desk. I have it standing upright and I kind of knocked it over. Wouldn't turn on after that. I did get pissed but didn't break it on purpose.

That sucks.

I didn't even think about starting over with your trophies. I forgot the PS3 doesn't have a removable hard drive.

That wouldn't be recovered when you re-establish your PSN ID?

Yeah it does, if you have the PS3 standing vertical, its on the bottom of the console, if you have it horizontal, its on the left side. there's a compartment that pops open and you take out one screw and it slides out. easily upgradable. i had a 40 gig, upgraded to a 320 gig. very simple to do. though, i have the old fat PS3, and thats where they're located. pretty sure its located underneath the disc slot on the new slims.

to the OP, as for trophies, you won't lose them. trophies are saved to your PSN so you won't lose them either. if you have your email and password, you can access your trophies on any PS3 console.

I never took it online other than updating though. I will have to go check to see if my trophies are still there. It does have a removable hard drive? That is awesome. I didn't know that. Of course there would be no point since the one I had is an 80 and the slim I had to get is a 120.

Yeah, after i installed my 320, my system info says i have 298 total gigs (dunno why it isn't 320 but whatev), and right now i have 240 free. only reason to really get a large hard drive is if you download alot of demos, trailer, movies, store music etc. i did it because the 320 gig hdd was only $3 more than the 250 ;)

Good stuff VS. I never knew you could remove it. But that's just my ignorance considering I don't give my PS3 as much time as my 360. Outside of Uncharted and MLB the Show I haven't played much else hardcore on my PS3. But Mod Nation Racers will rack up some time for sure.

I was that way this Xbox 2 years ago when I got my 3rd RROD.

I told myself I was going all PS3, and I did for a while. I played Modern Warefare and MLB 2K8 on it. But eventually when NCAA came out I went beck to Xbox because I had more friends on it playing NCAA than PS3. Then RB2 and GHWT came out and all of my instruments and DLC are on Xbox for my music games. So I slowly went back to Xbox.

I was just pissed off with all the problems I had. Games wouldn't save, games would freeze up etc. Hell a week after I bought it I got the RROD. Sent it in and got a replacement within a week thankfully then everything started happening with it. A few times it just shut off by itself in the middle of a game. I had the cooler and shit on it. My brother who bought his same day as me from Gamestop has had no problems at all with his. That's when I said to hell with it and bought my PS3. Over a year later and zero problems with it.
