I would go play, but I've started suffering from symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, and gaming aggravates it.
Mine doesn't seem to be suffering the issues at all. I have a fat PS3 purchased a little more than a year ago at a Circuit City liquidation. No glitches, the time and date are fine, I went to the store, downloaded a random demo to test it, then went online and played a few BioShock 2 MP matches. No issues for me.
But, due to my wrist, I can't play, so I'm making some dumplings.
