what to watch out for

If your gonna play for hours upon hours, dont place it in a enclosed space as it will start to over heat and make the internal fan work over time and eventually break, that is what happened with my old 80 gig ps3 and I didn't realize that the fan stopped working till it the day before it just froze on the start up screen.

Always try to not have your hard disk full. With me I noticed that if I am near my capacity limit that stuff starts to lag and I had the PS3 just crash mid game a couple of times, and had to restart the system, I dont know since I have something different then the slim but just try not to have your hard disk blow up from being full

Dont leave the disk inside the PS3. Me and several friends had our ps3 not be able to read disk afterwards, but then again I had Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 just sitting in my PS3 for 3 months lol

If your gonna use a WiFi connection for the PS3 dont ever try to download an update directly from the PS3, it could take up to 3 hours because some are like gig or two in size, just go use your PC and download it from the Sony Site

Games need installation. I dont know why but you have to install something on the PS3 (which could range from 200MB to 5GIG)for the game to work. And it could take a good 20 minutes up to an hour and a half to install. lol I remember buying Metal Gear Solid, and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm and just sitting there like "WTF I WANNA PLAY ALL READY"

You can buy and download games off of PSN store but they dont download while your on the internet or playing a game, so the best thing to do is pick the shutdown option and it will give you a option if you want the system to shutdown after downloads are complete, pick it and let it download. BUT NEVER turn it off while downloading anything because it will mess up the data, so just dont turn it off while downloading something big as it will be a pain in the ass to do it all over again.

im pretty sure you know a lot of this already but im just trying to be helpfull
what do i fight for? i have nothing to fight for but i fight i LIVE because it is my only defiance to what ever gods may be for making my life a living hell
