Title: Playstation 3
Post by: Commandox862017 on July 23, 2017, 09:52:21 pm

I have a Sony Playstation 3. However, recently it has been very odd. The game play is very laggy and slow. Used to be smooth as butter but something has changed. We've now got a new television, maybe that might help I have to give it a try now.

When I mean laggy and slow, I mean almost like gaming on a 28k dialup modem, laggy. If you ever tried it from that era.

Perhaps the hard-drive is dying and requires a replacement due to bad blocks or something?

I haven't a clue right now. Discs have 0 scratches on them, so I don't understand what's causing my issues.

Advice welcome.

Cheers, Bye  ::)

I got some compressed air in a tin with a nozzle stick thing. I played my PS3 last night and it was a lot better on the new t.v. per haps my old television was dying and is shit anyway, thats what you get for freeloading. I guess.
