Default PLAYSTATION 3 F**kED

HI lads,

just wondering have any of you ps3 user's come across this,
since modern warfare 2 came out have you heard of anyone's ps3 freezing and then switching itself off and continuing to do this everytime it's switched on, so ps3 unusable

this has happened to at least 3 of my online friends on mw2, two from scotland and one from england and just yesterday it started happening to my ps3 so my ps3 is now f**ked,

cheers in advance,
gretts.
