Doesn't the fact that he's posting here show he most likely already has a PC?Capitano Segnaposto said:

I've never had a console die on me now that I think about it. Really the thing I would end up mourning most is the loss of data. I would hate to find I had pretty much just entirely wasted so many hours.
May we have a moment of silence.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! A fellow brother in arms is missing in action.
Send a letter to the family.
Anyway, that's sad to hear. I couldn't bear leaving my PS3. We've had some many good times together. He's stuck with me through thick and thin.
Here's a cute kitten to make you feel warm on the inside.
Feel better soon!

Ask Doc Brown, but I would get a carpet and nice pair of socks should do the trick. Seriously tho your data might be ok in the hard drive. Take it to a game repair store, have them rip out ze brain and put it in a used (or new) ps3KwaggaDan said:
i don't care. had you said "my PS2 has died" i would have been upset for you, i remember the ps2 as being a brilliantly versatile little device which brightened my childhood. the PS3 isn't awful, it isn't even bad. it's better than the 360 certainly, its just too new to have any appeal to me.KwaggaDan said:
I'm worried about my PS3, it is one of the old models and the amount of "You have less than 500MB of space" messages I've been getting is becoming more common.
It has gotten to the point that I have nothing left to delete, and I'm still low on space :/

I don't think I ever had something like this. Even my old SNES and first-gen Gameboy are still going strong, although with the occasional glitch and power failure.
Sorry about you losing your PS3 though

Nope, won't work. As with modern TV sets that allow you to record to USB hard drives, all data on the drive gets encrypted and locked to that one system. If you connect your PS3 system hd via USB, you'll get nothing. If you plug it internally into another PS3, old or new, that PS3 will want to format it, very little questions asked.newwiseman said:
That's why backing up data over USB (hd/flash drives/whatever) or onto PlayStation Plus is a generally good idea. Besides, by doing regular back ups you'll also learn which publishers tend to lock down their save game data, preventing you from backing them up... oh and PS1, PS2 PSPand minis save data CANNOT be backed up.
My Xbox died, as well, but that was a bit worse because it was all I had to game on, but it died when the Xbox 360 came out, so it wasn't so bad.
I'm not particularly close, per say, to my game consoles. The first time my Xbox 360 died I thought that the graphics card going crazy and leaving the game looking as if it just took some acid was pretty fun. I just sent it in and got it back a while later. It died three times after that.
