PS3 has just died. The disc reader has failed. Sony want £99 to fix it (without even seeing it) plus any other costs for related issues. Everything else works fine. Have to wait till I get paid to fix it. Seriously annoyed now.
In case any of you want a bigger hard drive,

Any laptop sata drive should work, but check before buying. Not sure what the maximum it will take. Put a 500Gb drive one in a few months ago. Very easy to do. Must back up your existing drive first as removing it wipes it. You also need to download the sony operating system to a disc or flash drive and install this on the new drive before you can put your saved stuff on. The whole process took me 3 hours. http://uk.gamespot.com/features/6176090/index.html - how to guide.
I did this after the warranty had ended. Not sure it it voids an existing warranty. Check first. I don't want to be responsible for killing your machine.Anyone want to give some help in doing Halo3 ODST co-op on legendary at the weekend?

Think about that question.
Not everyone has both consoles or knows which games are exclusives and some people are new to gaming. Not everyone is as old as me.

Well, it says "Only for Xbox 360" on the case, so i kinda thought that was a bit silly.
Like you said, not everyone is native to gaming. -

Like you said, not everyone is native to gaming.I like 'native to gaming'. It's like we have our own country.

Have to be Friday night. You'll see me online. Out on Saturday. Good luck with the baby stuff. It's going to seriously eat into your gaming time and cash.

I hate to be the dickhead that says this, but you* should have bought an Xbox 360.*

I hate you for forcing me into being the dickhead that says this, but I have all the consoles and handhelds. Nintendo's for the wife and the man machines for me.

That doesn't make you a dickhead, that just makes me jealous.

I hate having to admit I have them all. Makes me sound sad and lonely. I'm not. Honest. I just have no kids and a understanding / obedient wife.

You must be a very happy man. I've had a quite a few consoles in my time, but not all of them. Simultaneously.

If only you could transfer a console game you were playing to a hand held for bathroom breaks. I'm allowed to smoke in the loo. Killing and smoking whilst shitting. Then I would be truely happy.
For anyone wanting a new console, tv etc. and your phone contract has ended

Got a free Wii and PS3 last year signing up for 2 (wife and me) 2 year contracts with the phones and tarrifs we would have chosen anyway. Fuck the networks and shops offering a free headset. Get free stuff. Takes about a month to process your free gift, but it is free. No, I don't work there. -

No, I don't work there.24 Month Contract on a £35+ doesn't mean free gift, it means you have paid for you console within the price.
If you shop around, you can get better deals on contracts using quidco, cash back offers etc.

Not if that was the tarrif i wanted anyway. It takes too long to wait for cash back cheques every few months. I want it now! Well, soonish.
