Gamers mourn: PS3 units die too

Posted Jul 3, 2007 at 4:21PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: PS3 Tags: Microsoft, Sony

If we would name something as the biggest news of the century, it won't be Nintendo buying Sony and Microsoft. Everything pales in comparison to what we just found. A tragedy it may be, but the heart of evil would laugh at such event. What exactly is this tear jerking news? A PS3 unit just died.

You read that right. The Xbox 360 might be suffering a 33% failure rate, but owners of the box are reported to be having the time of their lives. That isn't the case with this young man who desperately tried to save his dying PS3. You must be pretty intrigued now, so we'll get on with it.

There's this poster over the Blu-ray.com forums going by the name BluManta. On the post he made, he told the story of his friend who called him after said friend's PS3 "just died for no reason." Our hero in the making asked if any broken games, DVDs, or Blu-rays were used on the unit. Answers were all "no."

Finally, BluManta decided to venture over to his friend's place. To his shock that could shake the whole world, the mentioned dead PS3 had duct tapes over the vent. Why you ask? His friend answered, "I am really cautious about my ps3. I really look after it. I don't want dust getting inside it so I covered up the holes to stop dust from getting in."

Thus, another console died and it wasn't a 360. Our condolences go to the broken PS3's owner, and salutations to his friend who valiantly attempted to find out what was going on and tell everyone about it.

i said Blumanta should have duct taped "his" (which means the other person) nostrils and said those things i wrote about... i didn't say "his own nostrils"... i should have been clearer...

so i don't want to hurt Blumanta (i'm cool with Blumanta) but his friend deserves it... admit Common Sense if someone this stupid does something this moronic to ur beloved XBox you wouldn't be wishing him the best!!! the hell if this guy is an all-out Sony fan!!! would you like meeting people of these immense stupidity on Live???

he deserves some duct tape!!! what he doesn't deserve is the two minutes... it's too linient.

# WTF — Guest 2007-07-03 18:28

WoW!!! MORON he murdered his poor ps3!!!

What kind of idiot closes air ports! ITs the only thing keeping it from keeping it from asploding under the extreme heat of the cell! I mean at least the red rings of death on the 360 are the result of the 360's terrible (and annoyingly loud) cooling system as opposed to the PS3 that doesn't even make a whisper and even in 90+ heat never has had any failure probs. Whereas my friend's 360 was destroyed by the red rings of death on a 90 degree day. But stories like this are soo ASININE!!!!!!

# hhh — Guest 2007-07-03 18:55

and the fact of the tape he used the tape would leave crap all over it

# wow..useless — Guest 2007-07-03 19:07

whata useless post on qjs part..like what does this give us? to laugh at ms 33% failure rate...then laught at our own selves because our stupid users?? useless junk...

# wtf? — tobyo1 2007-07-03 19:17

WTFing Hell? What an absoloute artard, Sony put those holes there so that the console wouldn't heat up.

Oh well, I was expecting some fault that was gonna cost sony millions when I saw the title, but now I know its just a stupid retard

# I want this dumbass on my show... — Guest 2007-07-03 19:21

# haHa — Guest 2007-07-03 19:30

This just proves that no one with brains buys a PS3.

# If my ps3 gets dust in it — Guest 2007-07-03 19:31

I just use anti-freeze spray and its goes away... but duck tape? (I really think he made up the story though. Are there really people THAT stupid..?

# YAY!!! — Guest 2007-07-03 19:34

I AM SOFA KIND WEE TARD ED!!! I CAN CVER UP HOLES WITH DUK TAPEEEEEEE!!!!! !

GG noob

# lol — Guest 2007-07-03 21:01

retard...lol vents are there for a reason...but w/e

# ghf — Guest 2007-07-03 21:01

This has nothing to do with hair color. though i understand his reasoning it wasn't planned out intelligently. The only way to prevent dust from getting in if you take proper care and clean it out once and awhile.

# RommelTJ — Guest 2007-07-03 21:13

He isnt stealing it you idiot he is using it. Wow maybe you should join him at the awards, but to Carlos Mencia if your going to use the joke at least get it right and Its dee dee dee

to be stealing it he has to say he made the joke first.

# LOL! — Guest 2007-07-03 21:45

Yeh... "died for no reason".... what an absolute idiot.... the PS3 is a BEAST, it gets damn hot and the ventalation works well... unless you put duct tape over it..... sheesh

# False information — Guest 2007-07-03 21:57

The title of this news sucks big time !!! Come on QJ, change this, people will truly believe that the PS3 die as badly as the 360, when it's just a morron killing stupidly his PS3...

Next time, I hope this guy will read the PS3 manual...

# Americans are just stupid — Guest 2007-07-04 00:01

They are the dumbest nationality on earth

# Yup — Guest 2007-07-04 00:41

As an american, I hatefully have to agree with you. We are allowed to do some really stupid things and most of the time we get away with. (See Prez Bush, See Microsoft's XBox 360 failure rates)

# Really? — Guest 2007-07-04 01:42

As a non-American I would completely disagree.

Firstly, I think it's stupid to label a WHOLE nation as being dumb because of the action of the leaders. That's like saying all the people of a certain country are evil if they happen to have an evil ruler. It's stupid, unfair, and ignorant.

Secondly, what has 360 failure rates got to do with the people of America? I can understand president Bush to an extent on the basis that people voted for him, but the failure rates of a product says nothing about the people of America and so it's stupid to link the two.

Sorry, but it's not Americans who are dumb, it's you two. :|

# dumb — Guest 2007-07-04 01:47

how stupid can anyone get..lol taping the vent is the most hilarious ***** i ever heard

# How familiar — Guest 2007-07-04 01:54

This article is reminiscent of a Patrick Klepek style article. It has all the ingredients. It isn't news worthy, the title can cause a flame war, and it's completely ludicrous.

Seriously, this is the type of person(the duct taper) who lowers the collective I.Q. of the world JUST BY EXISTING!!! He's so stupid I can feel it.

Dude, if you want to keep your PS3 free of dust, keep it in a well ventilated area, keep that area CLEAN, cover up your PS3 with the cloth that came with it WHEN YOU AREN'T USING IT, and finally, get a small eletrical fan or a syringe and gently blow air right on the vents to release any dust that may have accumulated on it.

Dust WILL get through, but you CAN limit it.

It's just common sense. Then again, common sense isn't so common.

# Yes, Really — Guest 2007-07-04 02:11

Americans are not dumb??

What about pepople that doesn't know where Europe is?? I saw movie where 30 year old man pointed Australia, saying that Europe country is in there. That just dumb. And what their weight?? Eating only hot dogs, fries and chips?? That's REALLY DUMB!!

# i agree — Guest 2007-07-04 02:49

you know what i was thinking the same thing something seems fishy about the whole thing seems fake to me

# hmmmm — Guest 2007-07-04 02:54

americans arnt dumb i.e. most of everything that makes the wonderful tech world we live in made possible by americans. i.e. 1 of the highest literacy rates in the world

# So what? — Guest 2007-07-04 02:56

"What about pepople that doesn't know where Europe is??"

You can ask questions in ANY country and get dumb responces, but that doesn't make ALL the people dumb. Also, general knowledge is NOT the same as intelligence. Yes there's a high correlation between intelligence and knowledge in general, but some of the most intelligent people out there are very poor at general knowledge, including some geniuses who are so obsessed in one area that they have almost no interest in others.

Dumb people exist EVERYWHERE, and you'll find a higher percentage on forums like this than you'll find in the outside world.

"And what their weight?? Eating only hot dogs, fries and chips?? That's REALLY DUMB!!"

The eating habits of a nation has nothing to do with intelligence, and you only show your lack of intelligence by claiming that being fat for eating the wrong foods means that person is stupid.

Like I said, I'm not an American, but that doesn't mean I have to join the ignorant mob who want to point the finger at ALL Americans and call them stupid, because it's those in 'the mob' who are stupid, not Americans.

# you are! — Guest 2007-07-04 02:57

the joke is SOFA KING WEE TARD ED

you *****in retard

# Yes, they are dumb. — Guest 2007-07-04 03:13

But you know what? A just know that they are DUMB. And that's it. I don't think that they are dumb, I don't assume that they are dumb. A just KNOW IT. And not only me. There are many people, that are sick of them. Becouse they are so dumb.

# YEAH, THATS RIGHT — Guest 2007-07-04 03:20

They dont care about rest of the world, cause they see on their big fat asses. Even can't learn their own language, not to mention any foreign one. ivan's right, they are dumb.

# Thankyou cr@zy ivan... — Guest 2007-07-04 03:30

...for showing how dumb you are.

So, you just KNOW IT do you? You know nothing and it's obvious in your post. Besides, I'm waiting for you to explain why you think being fat for eating poor food means a person is dumb! Do explain to everyone here.

"And not only me. There are many people..."

Like I said, a mob of dumb people. That doesn't make you right, no matter how many people you think agrees with you.

# Thanks Xtreme for your common sense — Guest 2007-07-04 03:39

I agree with everything you said.

The thing is, all the dumb comments are coming from those who are calling Americans dumb. Talk about pot calling the kettle black. lol!

so don't waste your time on these anti-American morons Xtreme, there are far better things to talk about here on QJ and far better people to talk about it too. :)

# ^^^ Yep — Guest 2007-07-04 04:00

You're right 7eleven, and thanks.

See you somewhere else on QJ perhaps.

# Listen up bashers! — Guest 2007-07-04 04:16

The USA has the same type of folks as everywhere else. Some smart, some dumb.

Who helped out the European nations win past wars... the USA. Who gives money to LOTS of impoverished nations, the USA. Who has people trying to stop the current war and get rid of the Evil Bush and his crew, lots of smart Americans. Many of us hate the whole Bush crew, and think he is f'ing up the USA. Bush is the dumb american. He fixed the last election to keep himself in power, he needs to go!

Please do not categorize all Americans in the same lump.

And I too think the duct tape story is fake too.

# wow. — hush404 2007-07-04 04:33

What kind of f'n crap is this? Some idiot prevents the air vents in his PS3 from working, thus frying the system and we get an article claiming "OMG PS3"S SUCK AS BAD AS 360S!".

# Ivan! — Folding Junkie! 2007-07-04 04:37

Thank you for insulting my intelligence.

# ...... — Guest 2007-07-04 04:52

I mean how dumb are you if you actually do this... it seems either fake or this guy is some total dumbo with a lot of cash to waste...

Now about all this American bashing its just stupid becuase the people that are trying to say Americans are dumb don't even live hear or if they do they must not get out much. There are a lot of health nuts here too. Besides please if you are going to insult someone's intelligence uses proper english if you are in an english based forum.... it just shows how ignorant you are if you can not spell correctly or use proper grammer and try to insult someone else. (My paragraph might have errors too but I'm not trying to single out a whole country, just the two idoits on this thread)

# I hate touchpads..... — Folding Junkie! 2007-07-04 05:09

..... all that you have to do is touch it and it sends your post sometimes.

Back to what I was saying..... Thank you for insulting my intelligence. It is always nice to see someone slaughtering my language while calling me stupid.

We have a couple of words in the English language that describe people, like yourself, that group many people together and say that they all act one way or all have the same intelligence level. Those words are racist and bigot! You, my foreign friend, are both.

You also display a lot of ignorance by claiming that you KNOW how stupid us Americans are. My IQ and education/knowledge are at least on par with yours and most likely much higher. My reason for saying this is not arrogance. It is based upon the fact that I am not claiming to know for a fact that all Europeans, Asians, Africans, South Americans, + Australians are stupid. I know far too much to claim that just because someone lives in a certain country or on a certain continent that they must be stupid.

FYI, I speak not one but two other languages. I learned French + Spanish while I was still in High School. I am rusty with both because I rarely use them but I am more than capable of learning foreign languages.

All Americans are fat and overweight, huh? Many of us are overweight and our nation has an extremely high obesity rate but yet again you show your ignorance by claiming that ALL Americans are fat and stupid. I will make this really easy for you I would not want you to have to get online to convert these numbers so I will dig into my stupid American brain and convert them from memory for you. I am 1.8 meters tall and about 68 Kg in weight. I play sports daily and I eat very healthy foods most of the time.

So why don't you and all the rest of your ignorant friends that know almost nothing about Americans or our intelligence levels go find somewhere to hang out together and talk about how stupid we really are. Maybe you could even find a legitimate reason for calling us stupid if you all brainstorm for hours on end about it.

You make me sick with your ignorance and rampant stupidity. Maybe you should look in the mirror sometime Ivan and you might just see someone that really IS STUPID! Have a nice day!

I thought a PS3 might have actually died on its own which i've never seen happen, but alas the PS3 is the most reliable of the 3 consoles as usual and will be the best come fall 2007.

# It's Just proof... — N3570R 2007-07-04 07:34

# 1% chance of ps3 overheating? — Guest 2007-07-04 12:24

For those worried about ps3's dying and those 360 fanboys using this as ammunition against ps3. Here is an article on ps3 fanboy

The inquisitive folks over at Ripten decided to do a little research on the failure rate of current next-gen consoles. Their conclusions should come as no surprise, with the PS3 resulting in a low failure rate. What is surprising however, is the failure rate for one console in particular appears to be higher than previously anticipated. An EB Games associate singled out the Xbox 360 console by advising "failure rates for all other consoles were not high enough for EB to consider revising their policies" further claiming the failure rate of the Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii to be "less than one percent." An EB Games manager reiterated the low failure rates of the Nintendo Wii by exclaiming that "zero [consoles] have come back defective." A Best Buy manager then went on record saying "a quarter to a third" Xbox 360 consoles sold, come back defective, confirming the 33% failure rate percentage. The methods used to determine failure rates for these consoles appear to be too elementary to really prove anything concrete. Nevertheless, this story allows us to breathe a little bit easier, as it continues to prove our console of choice can still fold like a champ and have a longer lifespan than that of its direct competition.

Please read this, you will be excited. When you click this link, http://000url.com/money you will go to a website that will show you how to sign up for another website that pays you 2 - 45$ (PER) to do surveys, sign up for trial offers, and test products.

Companies such as ebay pay CC to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, CC simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate,

I have made 472$ in May, 412$ in June, and 271$ (SO FAR) in July. You get paid in real checks from "***** MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true,

but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day)

You do not have to enter your credit card or social security number. Nothing Harmful can come from CC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE 18 OR OLDER, I AM 15 YEARS OLD AND REFERRING PEOPLE, AND I MAKE THIS MUCH MONEY A MONTH

JUST SPENDING A COUPLE MINUTES A DAY ON THE COMPUTER! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS.

Think it's a scam? Read this(from the website) "We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so.

Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"

There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free offers!

My friend has his fifth Xbreak 360. Each of the consoles had died quickly (between day and a week, or did not work at all), thank god for extended warrenties. I myself am still on my first and only Wii and PS3, no problems.

He was commenting on the fact that carlos mencia steals other comedian's jokes. Not the individual typing the comment.

"SOFA KING WE TODD DID"

# The Sofa King — Guest 2007-07-05 03:21

Actuall the whole point it to string together properly spelled words.

"I am we Todd it. I am sofa king we Todd it"

# Why? — Guest 2007-07-05 04:23

What an idiot...

# this guy — Guest 2007-07-05 04:37

duh his ps3 broke he put duct tape on it wat a *****en retart

The story sounds so fake. Anyone and everyone that owns a PS3 can feel the heat pumping out of the ventilated holes. So no one in their right mind would try to cover it. Then again not everyone has common sense.

# Qj.net need to change the headline — Guest 2007-07-05 04:58

Why is the headline "Gamers mourn: PS3 units die too"?

It's giving gamers a false impression that the PS3's are at fault. Furthermore it's only one PS3, there's really no need for an "s" after unit.

Suggested headline "PS3 BEWARE: Idiot at large"

A couple of these things could heat an entire room in your house! Yet they still don't fail unless some idiot does something like this.

# trillions of dollars — Guest 2007-07-16 04:25

Thought USA spends that much on weapons and the army???

# get over it! — Guest 2007-07-19 04:09

so the guy made a mistake. ok, a HUGE mistake. some people just aren't familiar with electronics, but calling him names and wanting to hurt him because of it is just fkn immature. if you need to resort to that sort of mentality to make your self feel superior then maybe you should get a life, or a psychiatrist. fkn growup people.

The title was just a joke. the kid was a dumb@$$.
