i've had no issues, I never play for hours on end and I've never opened it up. Worse yet, this is a SLIM model, so it should be less prone to issues like this. (or so I thought)
Any suggestions before I try a different game/open it up?
--EDIT--
More testing done- and this is going downhill fast.
Tried with a new game. Now, the system doesn't appear to output video. My TV detects a signal over HDMI, and I can even have the system respond! I've tried pressing and hold PS button, press x twice (turns off the system) and even hold PS, down, x, x, (controller off).
--Another edit--
opened, cleaned and thermal paste applied. No dice.
What does this sound like, if anyone knows? I may open it up and re-
