A video showing how you can clean your PS3 by using it's own fans.
Note: This only works on the 40gb model, if you do this on any other model it will just make a beeping sound.
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.
I just did this on my own Ps3 and the fan sounded like a fricken vacuum.
So basically, there's now 3 level of fan noise for the PS3.
1- Can't hear it.
2- You're playing too hard, you can hear it now.
3- Jet engine plane ready to take off.
Seriously, this is another proof that Sony is not cutting corners when they design something... They put in a mega fan, and use it only at 30% of it's top speed. Very, very cool, no punt intended!
Cool .. sad it won't work on my 60gb :/
How come Sony doesn't tell us about this stuff? The PS3 was soooo loud.
I believe this is the first thing Sony Service do if they got a "broken" PS3, i've done it, and i saw dust flying out! not too much but it was dust. This is only for the good, why could it get hurt?
"This is a fan test which also helps with cleaning dust inside ur ps3, dont be paranoid if its loud its ment to do that ,
Turn off ur ps3
Turn off the power in the back via the power button
Hold the eject button keep holding it
While holding the eject button, turn on the power switch in the back of ur ps3
Done!!!!
Works only on 40 gig sorry i figured it would work on all lmao <--- idiot sometimes"
