Then why is it, the demo units at EB/ Gamestop keep freezing?

so you can get a life.

I've had mine lock up 4 times in 4 months. Twice while saving game progress and twice while playing the game. All 4 times it was the same title (Godfather: Don's Edition) so I'm not sure if it's the game or the console.

"so you can get a life."

Practice what you preach, idiot.

They freeze but are not crashed like RRoD 360s Mine has frozen maybe once or twice since November but I have always been able to reboot it just fine. The only reason they stay frozen in the demo stations is because the stores don't care enough to go reboot the system.

Sometimes, my PS2 freezes up, should I call Sony for repair?

These 7th gen systems are very very complicated machines. It's
surprising that they don't fail more often. The real question the
stress test was answering is: "will it survive?" not "will I be able
to play games in my sauna or walk-in freezer with no problems?"

Anyways, you're talking about the demo model... Expecting a demo to work perfectly after sitting in an enclosed space and/or being used non-stop, 7 days a week, is ridiculous. Ever noticed what kind of shape other demo's are in? Furniture with scuffs all over it, broken knobs, and so on.

If you look in the lower right hand corner of the screen theres a faded subliminal message that loads whenever it freezes and it reads "Buy your own dammit!"

Never had an issue with mine. The 360 is another story. For the part, the PS3 is a very solid (and powerful) machine. Great news.
