PS3 Woes

So it finally happened to me. I've always heard stories from friends or read about it on the internet, but I never once believed it would happen to me.

Sure, I've thought about it, but never thought it would happen because I've had it for about five or six years (I think).

What am I talking about? Well, the blu-ray drive on my PS3 stopped reading any disc that I put in there. So, in essence I can't play games for the time being. What's even funnier was the fact that it decided to quite on me while I was playing Gran Turismo 5. I had just won a race too.

I was pissed that it happened, but wasn't surprised that it happened. I've owned my PS3 for about five or six years, and during that time I've played blu ray games and movies. In other words, I really put the lens through its paces. So, the lens finally gave out on me, and I had to take it to a local repair shop.

I should be getting it back in a day or two. Let me tell you, I felt sad and naked after I dropped off my PS3 at the repair shop. Ha ha. I know this must show weird, but I've had it for so long and it never gave me any headaches.

Yeah, I'm a little teary eyed. BUT, my hope is that my system will be back in top shape.

Luckily, I bought a stand alone blu ray player, and I was able to play enough of Gran Turismo 5. So, expect my review of Gran Turismo 5 very soon.

Rest assured I tell you guys when I get back on track.

Until then!
