Yeah, you're fine. I've accidentally left my PS3 running overnight a couple of times and it's never had any problems. *hugs ps3 carefully*

Yikes! Fell asleep at the wheel, huh? It happens to the best of us.

Keep her in a well ventilated space and you won't have to worry about it. When GTA came out, I played for longer than 9 hours in one sitting.

Good lord, that sounds bad when I say it out loud.

Cheers,

Your PS3 will be just fine bro! I left mine on just the other night cause I started a bunch of PSN downloads before I went to bed. No harm done. The PS3 is a tank! I think there are a few people on here that leave their systems on 24/7 even.

It should be fine, I remember reading about an experiment where they kept the PS3 inside of a really hot car for like 24 hours and it still worked.

You own a PS3. Not a 360... Remember?

Once, I turned on my PS3 through remote play (I think it was remote play... No other logical reasoning) from school by accident, and I didn't know. I came back like 10 hours later after baseball, and it was still there running silently, folding at home...

No worries. I've started demo downloads before I went to sleep and left them to download overnight. I've not had any problems out of it.

I left mine on stand-by for a week after i went up north to see some family...i didn't know till i came back! It was compleatly fine, and it was a Launch 60GB model!!

If your PS3 did magicaly break down, just call Sony's PS3 helpline...

It's a bit pricey but they really are the best

My PS3 stoped palying games, so they gave me a new one....the new one made a bit more noice than the last one...so they gave me a brand new one!!

You got NOTHING to worry about! Be thankfull it's not a 360! Lol!!

I don't think that the PS3 will be overheating over that short of a period. I've left mine on for 3 days straight and played it until the 4th night and nothing happened. Thank God that it wasn't a 360 though. I probably would've gotten mini red rings that represented the red ring of death.

No disrespect or anything but how do u think the people who use folding @ home feel the have to leave their PS3 on for many more hours than that.
