PS3 is sooo hot it burned down half a house
This is one of those things we’re pretty sure the PS3 designers wasn’t expecting to find in their complaint box. But you can add this to the list of 10 PS3 gripes. And while you’re at it you may want to put this at the top of that list.
For quite sometime now the PS3 has been bugged by heat issues. But hot enough to burn down a house? According to a guy named noob, his beloved PS3 burned down half his house to a crisp. Unbelievable? We’re printing the full account from his blog site word for word:
Not thinkin the NG, big boy playstation three would have any trouble being on over night………. But I was wrong! Comming home at six in the morning and finding half of my house burnt to a crisp.. The fire department took a few days finding what set the blaze, my playstation three, so they say.. Funny the part of the house that got jacked up just so happen to be right where the ps3 was siting. Now I have up to 12,000 bucks in damage, and no more playstation! I tryed getting in touch with the lovely people at sony, LOL but I havent seen a dime yet..
At least it didn’t fry his sense of humor. But seriously, folks, if the PS3 does have the tendency to burst into a supernova (and we’re not saying it does) well that’s not just serious. It’s damn downright dangerous! Unfortunately, noob didn’t post pics or printed the official findings of the fire department that hosed down his house. That would at least make it official and merit the attention of Sony and all PS3 fanboys who leave the console running 24/7.
But why take the risk? We suggest you keep your PS3 cool (or turn it off altogether when not in use) while this matter remains unresolved.
