PS3 Overheating Problems

It looks like video game blog sites aren't the only ones to notice the Playstation 3's overheating during the Tokyo Game Show. Macquarie Equities analyst David Gibson also saw some PS3s locking up and having to be reset at the big show. And he didn't like what he saw:

"While the reason for this is unknown, we suspect it may be due to overheating as a result of enclosing the units and the high temperatures at the venue," Gibson wrote. "We are concerned that such a problem has occurred so close to full production and is clearly negative news for the company."

News of the glitches caused a 2.75 percent drop in Sony shares, says Business Week.

As reported TGS was, by all accounts, a sweltering A/C-free pit.

We will see...
