Well this sucks...My PS3 doesn't want to work properly anymore. I can turn it on but nothing happens, no message pops on the screen. At first, I thought it was my AV connection, which did give me a problem, but when I hooked up my PS3 to another TV, it ended up with the same result, a black screen. When it became possible, I went to Best Buy and bought myself 2 HDMI cables, one for my XBox and another for my PS3. My XBox works fine now, however, PS3 still no response on the screen. I'm able to play games on my XBox 360 but not my PS3 and a good portion of my owned games are for PS3. This sucks big dinosaur balls. Especially when I had a strange urge to play a Tomb Raider game (the HD Annivers...

After I had used my new HDMI cable and resulted in no change in response, I called Sony's tech support. He had me hold the power button at various intervals. I was doing that before I called them up. *strikes palm in forehead* Still no change in my PS3's condition. There is now a pretty good chance that I may have to get it serviced via shipment hassling, but fear not, my data is lost. All my game saves and downloaded games are probably lost now. Hurray.
Here I thought my 360 was going to be the first one to bite the dust (due to the many stories of undesirable red rings), not my PS3. Oh cruel irony.
