The 80GB does not have PS2 hardware built-in, so if you plan on playing your PS2 games with it, many will not work. See here for more details:

Sony will go in the same way Microsoft did with the 360 and use a backward compatibility emulation....

so instead of ps2 games running on actual ps2 hardware on the ps3, it will emulate it instead.. theres hardly any difference.. in terms of visual and performance, although games will be glitchy and will just be improve and fix through firmware....

I have also never heard of this problem but it seems to me your bluray player is fried.

I will honestly say I have no idea what the problem is but have you tried using one of those "lens cleaner" discs? The same ones you'd use for a CD player.

Also, after you load the disc does it make the normal whurring noises?

I'd contact Sony if I were you. Hopefully they'll send you a trouble shoot that you can also post up for us.

Oh, one last thing you can try, official Sony PS3 forum. Some of those guys helped me out a lot when my PS3 disliked the new firmware update.

Metacritic doesn't do their own personal ratings, it gathers all the popular review websites *IGN, gamespy, ect* and averages it all out. Every big company uses metacritic to get an average of their own production and their competitions.

I've been noticing a lot of lazy posts by you lately. Please do some research next time and stop posting stupid comments.

picked up EA's 08 NBA

its not bad....but during gameplay the graphics looks kind of....not that great?? during replays and other scene the character looks amazing, just kind of wish they smooth out the gameplay a bit more since each player moves kind of like a robot..


Gonna pick up 2k8 nba tonight and see how it goes

Ratchet looks to be the first good exclusive PS3 game... Until Uncharted comes out (we hope)

But if you were never a fan of the series, this won't make you one.
