About ChronoDensetsu
Expertise
I´ve played a lot of games through the years from a lot of different genres and on a majority of the available gaming platforms, my main expertise being RPG´s on Gameboy (color/DS/Advance), SNES, PSX, PS2, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii and PC. I´m also quite up to date about new developments in the gaming world, hardware fixes and can also give good advice about gaming in general, for instance, whether a game is worth buying or not, when a game will be released, if there are any good upcoming strategygames for PC, etc. Feel free to ask me questions outside of my expertise, I'll try to help the best I can.

Experience
I've been an avid gamer since the age of 4, I'm 20 now, so I played countless games in those 16 years. RPG's and strategygames had the most of my interest, though there are few games that I really don't like. Series like Final Fantasy, Zelda, Secret of Mana and the Soulblazer saga are my favorite, I've finished every one of those games countless of times. Also strategygames like Command and Conquer, Age of Empires, Warcraft and Total Annihilation are games I played a lot and can tell you a lot about. I work at a webstore for computerhardware. Therefore, I can also tell you a lot of things about the latest developements in this area, and the things I don't know I know where to find, so don't hesitate to ask me any questions you might have on this subject.

Console Games (Nintendo, Sony etc.) and Arcade Games - Playstation 3 hard disk will not restore


Expert: ChronoDensetsu - 4/23/2008

Question
I have had a PS3 for just over a year now. It is the 60GB model. Everything was working fine one night when I shut the system down. The next day I started it up and after the sony computer entertainment screen comes up it changes to the hard disk is corrupt and will be restored screen. I hit ok , it goes to the restore and restarts and goes to the corrupt screen again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer
Hey Steven,


This sounds to me like a malfunction, the best course of action would probably be to contact your local Sony-officials and explain the problem to them. The warranty is only a year if I'm right, but with a bit of luck they'll fix it for free. If not, they'll probably be able to fix it for a small fee. However, DON'T go fiddling with your console yourself, otherwise they'll blame the problem on your tinkering with the internals, even though this problem isn't easily caused by something like that.

Just keep your fingers crossed and hope they're in a good mood when you contact Sony. Best of luck, mate.


Sincerely,

Chrono
