12. My Broken System

It's probably been almost a month since I was last on my Ps3. I had it for about 6 or 7 years , just right after the 60gb came out. Yesterday I just decided that I would try and fix it myself. I started early morning all the way through the afternoon. I went on youtube to search the problem I had and there were multiple videos. I decided to choose the one with the Indian and it was also the longest so it would be step by step procedures. He had all the crazy tools but all I had was a screw driver and the thing that tightens your glasses. When I was doing this I actually felt like a real technician. The hardware for the ps3 isn't as crazy as I thought it was.












After I finished taking everything off and found out what I needed to clean , I was a little tight. All it was is a tiny lens that very delicate and just needed to wipe. As I put everything back together and finished I was really hyped. Plugged it in , called my boy told him I'm back on , and just laid back on my couch. After my ps3 started making some crazy noises and then the game just went black. My decision was then final. i had to call sony and tell them i needed the repairs done. Got charged $110 but I guess it's worth it.

  5. I once had to send in my Xbox 360 for repair, and it took a month before I could play again. That was torture at its finest.
