mw2 glitch – Fearless Gamer https://www.fearlessgamer.com Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:00:45 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.3.8 PS3 firmware 3.10 may be borking Blu-ray drives https://www.fearlessgamer.com/2010/01/17/ps3-firmware-3-10-may-be-borking-blu-ray-drives/ Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:00:45 +0000 https://www.fearlessgamer.com/?p=1033 Burned up PS3.There’s an ever-growing thread on the the Playstation forums that suggests a recent firmware update may be killing the system’s Blu-ray drive. Several forum users have noticed a reproducible bug in which the system freezes at the end of Modern Warfare 2 matches once the update has been applied. The problem then carries over into other games, which has led some users to believe it’s a problem with the drive.

It could be. But this could also be one of those situations where someone comes up with a potential solution or reason for a problem and everyone else jumps on board just to have an answer. It seems strange that a firmware update in conjunction with MW2 would actually ruin a Blu-ray drive. Of course there is the chance, however remote, that all these people having old enough systems that the drives are failing from old age.
