Worst ever?
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I bought this 2 days ago, and it arrived really fast today at around 11am. I get everything out looks almost brand new, plug everything in and turn it on and it works fine. Setup all the settings and turn it off. I have HDMI plug into Vizio 26" TV with 1080p. I turn it on about an hour later, loads then screen gets all messed up and freezes. I literally spent about 3 1/2 hours trying to fix it and couldn't. Pretty good product, can't even play one game without it dying.

Sony PS3 Refurb.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say about the PS3 that hasn't already been said? I can say that the graphical quality of the PS3 is superb as expected with today's gaming consoles. Backwards compatability is a must and sensible if one has a large catalog of older Playstation games. This was the primary reason for my purchase of an older/refurbed PS3. This is a good machine and has preformed admirably so far.

easy to order
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.it was real easy to order and i checked all around the net for my son to get another ps3. i bought him one when they first came out about 5 years ago and i left it on all the time and it burned up. make sure you always turn off your PS3 because they all have a problem of overheating. anyways this was the best price for the ps3 i could find. used are totally different then refurb. always get a refurb. over used. refurb are factory rejects that are fixed and then resold. they are the exact same as new just fixed by sony before being sold. better pricing then new with the exact same performace and reliability.

It will fail
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought one new... $499...got two years out of it before the YLOD. I sent it in to Sony and they charged me $150 to fix. Took only 6mo for the YLOD to return (naturally the $150 warranty you get is only 90 days). There is a flaw in the motherboard design...it will overheat. So for two and a half years worth of use...cost me $650. A good portion of that time I wasn't even able to use it. When it works...it works great. But for the $250 they are asking...just pay the additional $50 and get a slim. Unless you love to sauter on motherboards.

Great for blowing people up!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a lot of fun with this thing. I play mainly shooters, and role play games on it and the graphics are wonderful, even on a non hd tv. I love that I can play games, watch movies, surf the web, watch netflix on it and so on. There are too many things great things to say about the ps3. I have no problems with it, and i recommend it to people who love to play games and watch movies but do not want to buy three separate electronics just to have em.

Refurbished is the way to go!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price you can't be beat, I can't believe these are even listed, it's soooo hard to find at stores. With the refurbished model you'll get a geek squad warranty as well, Premier Silver ring a bell!?!? I've received a refurbished iPhone from the geek squad and it had a file compressor installed; wonder if geek's did it for the PS3's as well. MUST BUY SUPERIOR TO XBOX IN EVERY WAY!!!

Q: QuestionDo refurbished products come with a warranty?Many of the reviews that I read give the warning that the refurbished PlayStation 3 that they bought malfunctioned the first day they used it. In some cases the malfunction happened within hours of the first use. I was wondering if Best Buy or Sony offers any type of warranty with the refurbished products.
Asked by David.
- A:Answer In most cases, refurbished items will include a 90-day factory warranty. Warranty periods vary from product to product though, so make sure to click on the "Product Specifications" tab for full details.
