Some PS3 users reported sudden inability to use BR disc optical media, among recent rumors and Sony's non-manifest and open to speculation plans to fight back piracy, this small phenomena appears on one of the so called "most piracy-permissive countries in the world"
Is something's rotten in denmark?, is it just a coincidence or part of the consumer electronics normal lifecycle?
Approximate Translation: Oficial PS forums are on fire, as we read, more than 250 users are affected, and that's only in Spanish forums.
They have suffered Error: 80010514 which renders the BR drive totally useless, making impossible ANY disk read.
First victims were registered in december, since then the number has surpassed 250 already, which points to a localized and growing meltdown, and not an isolated case as first thought.
Cause for this error remains unknown, some users blame Black Ops or GT5, some say it was naturally expected because of the debatable build quality of the lens.
Official advice from Sony includes changing/repairing the optical drive, but some users reported that this didn't solve their issue at all.
Be aware, no PS3 model is safe, including the latest of the slims.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
farking hell man!
no english?
"The official PlayStation forums are that whistle. As we read more than 250 affected"
