How to Fix a PS3 That’s Not Reading Games – Make Your PlayStation 3 Problems Disappear!

by on Jan.08, 2011, under PS3

Rick Tana asked:

When you have a Ps3 that’s not reading games, then it’s obvious that there’s something wrong, but what? How can you know what’s wrong with your PlayStation 3? It’s quite easy to determine what’s wrong, especially with a PS3 that’s not reading games. It has to do with your ps3 Blu-ray lens. It’s high likely that it’s dusty and it needs to be fixed if you want to play a game or watch a movie again.

Few tips for fixing your PS3 not reading games

1) Restart your PlayStation 3.

2) Check for any loose cables. If so, put them back in and start your ps3 again.

3) Put out your hard drive and put it back in again.

4) Delete all your saved games and install files. Delete everything that has to do with your games.

Nothing worked? Oh.. what a shame isn’t it? It always has to be on the hard way to fix your PS3 not reading games problem.. Let’s check out the last 2 options you have.

You could send your console back to Sony. This might sound like a good idea to let them fix your PS3 problem, but take a look at this. They first have to send you a shipping box – takes 1 week. Then you have to send it back, that’s 1 week also, then there’s the repair phase, takes 2 weeks. And after that they will send it back to you again, that’s 5 weeks you have to wait!! Also, if you don’t have your warranty anymore, you will have to pay $150 for the repair. Quite expensive for a small fix like this.

Fix the PS3 not reading games problem by yourself!

I’d recommend you to do this, because it’s not that hard as it looks like. It could be done in one day and it doesn’t cost a lot ($25). As long as you use a guide to help you out, it should be no problem for you to fix your PS3 not reading games problem!

Why would you wait 5 weeks and pay $150 to let Sony repair it for you when you can fix it by yourself right now? As I’ve said before, if you use a repair guide, it should be no problem to fix the problem by yourself.

How to Get Free Nintendo Wii Points and Codes

by on Jan.04, 2011, under Wii

Erika Ayala asked:

How many times have you drooled over those free giveaways for Nintendo Wii because you don’t have enough free Wii points for them? How many games have you neglected because saving up your allowance just �isn’t enough to pay for these expensive new video games? I’ll let you in on a little secret because I am a big fan of Nintendo Wii games and of course, everybody knows that getting free games is much better than paying for them. �

There was a time when I used to have to save up and even work extra hours just to support my video game habit. I had to keep up with the latest game releases from Nintendo and I always shelled out money to get them. But all that changed when my friend asked me if I was aware of the free Wii points for Nintendo. Naturally, I was surprised to hear that there was such a thing and that I had been living my life spending money that I could have been saving instead. �

When I found out how to get the free Wii points code, it was actually a bit of a no-brainer decision. I really have nothing to lose, and if ever it doesn’t work I can always go back to paying for the points. Fortunately, it did work and the best thing about it was that it only took me a few hours before I earned about 2000 free Wii points code. All you have to do is simply complete offers that these websites give you and you can begin earning points. �

After about a week or two, I found out that I can actually refer friends and get even more points for it. So I started telling all my friends to go online and sign up to get these�free Wii points codes.�

by on Dec.30, 2010, under Xbox 360

Rick Tana asked:

Looking for a way to get rid of your Xbox 360 e74 system error so you can play your favorite games again? You’ve got 2 options to do this. You either send your console over to Microsoft and let them fix the troubleshooting problem, or you actually going to repair the error yourself with the use of a repair guide.

Send my Xbox 360 over to Microsoft. Good, or bad idea?

When you do this, you will have to keep in mind 2 things; The costs, and the time it will take. This is an option that does work, but it’s also costing you lots of money. When you do this, you’ll have to pay $150 to Microsoft. This is only if your warranty has been expired. Also, the waiting times are quite long too. You’ll have to wait 2-4 weeks, and in worse cases, it will even be longer than1 month!

Fix my Xbox 360 e74 system error…. Myself with a repair guide?

This is the best option that you’ve got. Want to know why? Because it’s the total opposite of option 1. When you do this, you don’t have to pay $150. Just a small fee for the repair guide. Also, there’s absolutely no need to wait for weeks to get your Xbox 360 back and fixed. When you do it yourself, you’ll decide how long it takes.

It’s highly recommended to use a repair guide on this because it will take all the guess work out. I’ve heard many stories from people who have fixed their console within a day, and some even did it within 1 hour. That’s pretty good… Right? Want a fast and a cheap fix?

Is Gamefly Worth It? My Experience

by on Dec.22, 2010, under Gamefly

Josh Pierce asked:

Is Gamefly worth it?

The idea behind this website is actually quite ingenious, they essentially stole Netflix’s business model.  You sign up on their website and pay a flat monthly fee of $22.95 to receive up to two video games in the mail.  There are no late fees, meaning you have all the time you need to beat any given game.  The shipping is included in your membership price and you also have the ability to purchase a rented game if you choose and they simply replenish that purchase with a new rental.  Sounds great right?

Well I decided to try them out.  I signed up for the Free 10 Day Trial, just to see how much of a hassle it would be to get my money back.  Registration was very easy and I placed an order for two games I had been dying to play (Modern Warfare 2 and Fifa ’10).  I signed up on Tuesday and had my games by Thursday, I was impressed so far.  I played the games for a full week and loved every second of it, I’m such a nerd when it comes to PS3.  On the ninth day I put the games back in the mail and logged on to cancel my free membership.  To my surprise the cancellation process was virtually hassle free….I really couldn’t believe that.

I would have to say that I was fully satisfied with my experience at Gamefly.  I actually went back on and signed up for a full membership after my investigation.  Its been about three months now and I would have to say that Gamefly worth it.  They have the largest inventory of in-stock video games anywhere.  Including the latest from PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii.

So in conclusion is Gamefly worth it?  Definitely yes.  Everything that is provided with your membership makes Gamefly the new leader in video game rentals.  The program is reliable and virtually hassle free.  To top it off there is no cancellation fee.  GameFly™ delivers the best video games to your door!  Start for only $8.95 or Try for Free

Wii Red Console Special Super Mario Bundle

by on Dec.18, 2010, under Wii

Derek Armson said:

There are two really huge indicators that the “holidays are coming”! First is the Coke advert that sports that slogan, the second is the number of new game releases on the horizon – holidays 2010 is no different.

Yes, this is the time of year that the game market goes ballistic and the bun fights happen at the game shops on Christmas Eve as we all fight (physically sometimes) to make sure our darling offspring (or our spouses in the case of the Wii) get the games they want in their Christmas stocking.

And why not? After all that food a bout of something like Wii Zumba Fitness or Wii Party is good for us! Amongst all the “noise” there is one Wii release that really stands out.

What is it? It’s a Red Wii! Red Wii Consoles? Whatever next? To be fair, I think this is superb marketing by Nintendo. You see, it’s a special occasion. It’s Super Mario’s 25th birthday! No, I couldn’t believe it either.

Yes it’s 25 years since Nintendo launched Mario and his friends on us way back in 1985. Incredible to think that’s when a very pixelated Super Mario first bounded onto our computer screens. Nothing like we have today, in terms of graphics, it was all very pixelated “squared off” line drawings, it didn’t get any better in 1985. But gaming, and Mario, have come a long way!

Anyway, to the story behind this Red Wii Hardware and Game bundle. As it’s about Mario’s 25th birthday, the “Mario Red” Wii and Controller package is Nintendo’s way of celebrating this milestone. The package includes a “Mario Red” console, that comes with a “Mario Red” Controller and Red Nunchuk as well. It’s the first time Nintendo have moved away from the standard white or black consoles, but…for Mario (which has probably been one of their biggest profit spinners), anything is possible including a Red Wii Console!

If you’re a Super Mario Bros fan, this is a must I guess! And as it’s a special edition it is a limited release, very

limited. Nintendo haven’t said how many but I do suggest you get in quick if you want one. Official release date is 7th November (2010) in the U.S with a late October release in Europe. This special package is only due to run for the holiday season as I understand so expect withdrawl in early 2011.

So, as well as the wonderful Red Wii Console and Controllers, what else is included? Well, you also get three front line games pre-loaded.

First up is Donkey Kong as Mario battles to save Pauline after she is kidnapped by Donkey Kong. Wii Sports also comes pre loaded. So you can go bowling, play golf, tennis, baseball or box the wife (only one winner there then).

But the starring role is of course New Super Mario Bros, and because it’s a special edition there is the ability for four player game play.

The New Super Mario Bros game itself is a mix of cooperation and competition. Only you can decide which is best for you at any given time or situation! You can help your fellow players by picking them up and removing them from danger, but…you can also dump them right in the firing line! It can get nasty!

The playable character are Mario and Luigi (of course) as well as two Toads although many others from the Mushroom Kingdom appear here and there during the game.

You’re even able to ride the Yoshi characters and you can use them to gulp up your enemies….or other players.

The key skills to master in New Super Mario Bros is the motion abilities of the controller. This skill will stand you in good stead at key times in the game, for when you each the seesaw. By the way…make sure you’re first there, that’s all I’ll say!

The propeller suit is great fun, just give your controller a quick shake and you’re able to fire other players sky-high! You can also use Mario’s new ability to morph into “Penguin Mario”, but be careful with this the first few times you use this new skill.

If you’re playing multiplayer, you’ll all be ranked at the end of each section according to the number of coins collected and how many enemies you have defeated.

If you’re a true Mario fan (as I am) this has to be the holiday gift for you. I’ve already put my order in!

Remember thought, this is a limited edition so if you have designs on this package, it might be wise to pre-order now.
