PS3 and COD4 issue?

[LHD_DC2]

Last night while playing COD4 my PS3 shut itself off in the while I was online. I tried to turn it back on and I got a quick yellow light and then blinking red. The system will not turn on. I've got the 80 gig motorstorm bundle.

I've called sony and they told me it's a heat issue, but my ps3 sits in a wide open area and it's pretty cold down where it's placed. Looks like I have to shell out 169 for repairs since it's out of warranty.

Anyhow, tonight.. actually just about 20 mins ago my buddy called me and he had the exact the same thing happen to his console. It's the same model as mine and he was playing the exact same game.

Is there some issue with COD4 online with this particular model? I've read online on many forums and many people are having the same problem while playing this game.

Anyone have any idea?

I also had that issue but it wasn't COD4. Its almost like the "insert the other gaming console's name here" RRoD but on PS3(just not a very common issue unlike the other console). Even if its in an open area it can still collect dust just like any other console. Plus, got to keep the room at a descent temperature and even turn on a fan if you have to. As you can see mine is a 60GB PS3 but a refurbished one).
