OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Do you PS3 guys have trouble with your controller unpairing from the console every couple of weeks or so?  And, when it does, why did they make it such a ridiculous process to get it to sync back up?  I need a fricking pin to get my controller to sync?  Seriously?  Eat shit, Sony.  I know the 360 took a lot of grief for the red ring of death issues, but it is a MUCH better console than the PS3.

I've had my PS3 for almost a year and that's never happened, even when when I moved.  Maybe it's because I only have one controller.  Do you have any other Bluetooth devices near by, or is the controller possibly being left unplugged for too long to the point that the battery completely dies?

Hmm.  This could be it.  Though it's still a stupid engineering design to make the resync button only pressable with a pin or Weebs' dong.  What's wrong with a small button?

It's all part of my plan to get my dong into as many people's homes as possible.  So far, no luck.

So, I know a guy that has a busted PS3.  He said he just give it to me (with the hard drive) and MLB The Show 09 (which is in the tray).  I asked around a bit, and it looks like a company called PSR1 will repair it for $109 (compared to Sony charging $150).  TDubbs' meatheaded response aside, do you guys think I should take this on?

PS, the graphics card in my 360 is dying a slow death.  My screen started going into this funky weird green/red grainy hue over the weekend.  By most accounts of things I've read (and what Yeti and CD told me), it's the graphics card inside the thing.

Should you just take a busted PS3 for free?  Yes, retard.

And you're afraid the free one is going to get jealous, or something?

You'll have to forgive Kermit. He has a penis in his ass, apparently, and it's a little uncomfortable.

Because I'm wondering why IAN needs to ask whether or not to accept free stuff?

Send the free one to me, IAN.  But spend the money to get it repaired first.  Thanks.
Can you help me live a little more?  I expect good news.

Not dangerous, it won't burn your house down.

It's a might work, might destroy your console all the way type repair.

Have you confirmed exactly what's wrong with the system?  It would suck to try that fix and find out there was something else entirely wrong with it.
