    PS3 froze in middle of OT game

    So my PS3 decided to freeze Thursday night in the middle of the 3rd OT during my Road to Glory. I had just intercepted a pass and paused the game to watch the replay. At this time the game just froze without the pause menu ever coming up. I have tried to push every button possible and nothing happens. The only button that works is the PS button and when I push that the PS menu comes up and gives me the option to Quit the Game.

    Anybody know of any button combos or tricks to fix this so I can finish my game?

    Thanks in advance.

    It is still froze. Not sure about paused, because the pause menu never came up.

    Just restart. Not worth the hassle of your PS3 overheating. Of course I have a 360 so I only know they overheat badly when left on for a long period of time.

    I have had similar problems with my ps3 and haven't found anything to work but turning it off. Good luck.

    What is your gamertag by the way? I use this same thing i use here.

    Re: PS3 froze in middle of OT game

    LOVE MY PS3 and I had this happen 1 time on a Online game I tried EVERYTHING nothing works just hit ps button and turn it off. Ive played thousands of games online and this has only happened once so I dont think its a huge issue.

    It could be worse you could be playing the ancient XBOX 360 LoL


    Our wii even froze one time (not online) so Im sure every machine has its issues

    good luck

    Ya... All systems have their problems. I haven't had any trouble with mine. Then again, I haven't used it in a year.

    Re: PS3 froze in middle of OT game

    Yeah I heard about the red circle deal on XBOX 360s say when you get the red circle that the sytem is useless and cant be fixed and TONS of gamers were mad. I owned the original XBOX but never bought a 360 1 of the few systems i never bought.

    From Atari, Nintendo, Sega Genisis (and 32X), Super Nintendo, Playstation, XBOX, Playstation 2, Playstations 3, PSP, Nintendo Wii (family) and my little girl uses a Nintendo DS.

    SO Ive tried em all almost did not do the 360 or N64 but pretty much had all the others.

    With that said I like PS3 best. Best graphics best controller and I have not had any problems with it.

    RROD can be fixed. I got it a while back and my 360 works fine now.

    Yes, the RROD can be fixed, but shipping it to Microsoft to fix it takes a month or two to get it repaired and back. At least in my experience.
