it actually looks like the insides could be intact......also nick...make sure you don't just need to clean the lens rather than replace it....i thought i needed to replace mine cause of everything i have read online..but turns out it just needed a cleaning
How did yo go about cleaning it? cause im not really looking forward to popping open the PS3, and opening the disc drive and everything...
Plus when my brother had it, him and his wife were watching a movie and it randomly stopped working in the middle of the movie...so i dont think it needs to be cleaned..but ill try it
i completely took it apart....problem was when i took the disk drive apart all the gears in the top 1/2 fell apart and i could not get them back together....but i fixed it so the bottom 1/2 acts like there is a game in it...all i have to do is take the top off my playstation to change the disk...works like a champ....but i believe you can buy a disk at best buy specifically made for cleaning the lens....does it still play dvd's?
if it wont read dvd's or blu rays it is more than likely the drive and not the lens.....there is two lens's....one for blu rays and one for dvd's....it be cheaper to just buy the whole drive....and that is very simple to replace once you get it
So I actually just got done playing Mass Effect 1. I downloaded it from games on demand like 3 months ago never really gave that game an honest try either haha.
But I just got done playing it for about 2 hours and I gotta say the game seems pretty badass.

Id rather pay 115 to get it fixed than 300 to buy one at Gamestop or anywhere else...
and i will get it fixed locally for that and have it back in a couple of hours, rather than paying 15o for sony, and getting it back in 6-8 weeks
what Multiplayer demos are free on PSN? lolol
ill just pay a guy to fix it. no biggie.
Theres a shop locally that will repair the problem, and anyother problem for 115.99
which includes parts, labor and a 90 warranty...and ill have it back within 2 hours
id rather do that then fuck with it. lol
I bought Fallout 3 when it first came out played it for maybe 2 hours didn't like it and traded it in. Didn't really give it an honest try.
Comments? Suggestions?
