I've had my PS3 Slim since June 10th, after my phat broke and I had to get a new one. It has been working great, but it freezes occasionally. I don't know what causes freezes, but I dont think it overheats. since the fan never suddenly starts making a lot of noise, and it has a lot of space.
I always get paranoid when it freezes, because Im not sure if it was a buggy software/buggy game, or if my PS3 might be dying.
-WipeOut HD has frozen twice after I got it with PS+
-Aliens Vs Predator has frozen once in the alien campaign
-Mafia 2 demo froze on me on its sixth or seventh playthrough
-Red Dead Redemption froze yesterday after walking out of a stage coach in Escalara after probably 80+ hours gameplay.
A total of five freezes over two months
I have also installed and played MGS4, Mirrors Edge, Heavy Rain, Uncharted games, GTA4 etc etc, but they didnt freeze.
So where these freezes most likely software? I read that WipeOut has online issues (like looking behind while online racing), and AvP and Red Dead might have a few bugs, and Mafia 2 is a demo so it might be badly programmed.
Should I worry?
