One can encounter various error codes on a PS3. Initially, there was no solution to these problems. With time, the manufacturer has found solutions to most of these errors. Now, you don't have to go to any repair shop to get rid of your errors. There are now precise solutions for specific error codes.
Some solutions to some of the most encountered errors are as follows
PS3 Error code 80010514
This is a problem that PS3 encounters while reading blue ray discs. This problem is usually related to the hard drive. Initially, you should try removing and reinserting the hard drive three or four times. If this error code does not go away, your PS3 might be overheated. Turn off your PS3 for half an hour. Make sure that your audio and visual ports are connected properly before restarting it.
PS3 Error code 80710723
This PS3 error code is due to a possible port error. You might also be facing this error due to a network or router error. A slow internet speed might be causing the problem. It is advisable to contact your internet service provider.
PS3 Error 80710102
80710102 error code occurs when there is a problem with internet settings. This error does not allow you to download files, or even play games on the PS3. It may be a fault of your ISP network. If that is not the case, then you should revisit your internet settings to check whether you made any mistakes in your internet settings.
For the right network settings, you need to:
- Go to network settings under the general option of setting
- Go to internet settings

PS3 Error 80710092
This error code usually occurs while streaming a movie or a video. Like the previous errors, this error occurs due to internet connection problems. This error will prevent you from signing in, accessing account settings or connecting to an account online. To solve this problem, first go to Network. Now select the 'internet browser' and try to access any website and also check whether your internet cable is connected properly. If you are not able to open any website, then there is a problem with your ISP Network.
PS3 Error 80130182
If you get this error code, it means that your PS3 cannot connect to the internet. Make sure that your internet connections are properly coupled. Also, try rebooting your console.
PS3 Error 8001002b
If 8001002b error code occurs, then your console is having problems picking up data from external devices. You might have a problem with your USB or media card. Remove the device and reinsert it in to the port. If this does not work, try a different external storage device. In case the other device fails too, there might be a problem with your console.
PS3 Error 8071
This error code occurs when multiple messages start flashing on your screen. This means that your PS3 is detecting multiple errors. It usually occurs when you are playing a relatively popular game. This problem may have been caused by a faulty HDD. Unplug the entire console for a couple of minutes, allow your PS3 to cool off. Check your internet connection. Use a laptop to see whether your internet is working or not. If it is, then reconnect your PS3. Hopefully, your problem will be solved by then.
These were some common error codes on PS3. If you follow these guidelines, you will easily get rid of these errors and you can enjoy playing games without any unwanted interruption.

The WiiMote can pick up motions along two-axis and when it's aimed. Additionally, it features a D-pad controller, vibrations, sounds and control keys for all those video games that do not take advantage of movement. The Nunchuk provides the joystick to the equation.
Sony Move can be viewed as like the WiiMote in certain respects. It offers a ball on the end which lights up in the course of various stages of the game, and incorporates the four Playstation buttons, a trigger switch, Move button and vibrations. It is much more sensitive compared to WiiMote since it contains 2 three-axis motion sensors, both to determine speed and amount of movement.

Price
The main advantage of the Wii is the fact the Nintendo Wii console includes the movement control, Nunchuk and Wii Sports game. If you wish to acquire the Playstation Move then you are going to have to pay extra for the camera, the controller, as well as the optionally available navigation control. It's all obtainable in one bundle at $100 - not cheap taking into consideration the price of the gaming console in addition.
In the battle of Playstation Move or Nintendo Wii it's important to very carefully think about exactly what you want.

The Playstation 3 yellow light of death, YLOD, is very appropriately named! When you go to turn on your system and watch that little yellow light flip to a blinking red light it is very frustrating. You press the button over and over trying to get the system to boot, but it does no good. While many people assume their console has really died and there is nothing to do but replace it, this is absolutely untrue.
It would certainly be easier and faster to just throw away the system out and purchase a new one, but anyone who does that would be stupid enough because the PS3 Yellow Light Of Death is a fixable problem!

That is why game enthusiasts are now turning to the internet to find fast, convenient, and affordable fixes for the Ps3 yellow light issue. Before you determine which of these fixes is right for you, take a moment to consider what may be causing the problem to begin with.
In most cases, the flashing yellow light of death of PS3 is caused by internal failures due to overheating. Many users notice that their console sounds much louder than usual and/or feels very warm to the touch prior to the Playstation 3 yellow light problem developing. These are actually good signs that the system is overheating and if you can fix the problem right away the flashing lights may actually be avoided!
For future reference, the PS3 console needs adequate ventilation to prevent overheating, or at least make it less likely to happen. Many users place their console down flat on the ground or up against a wall, which blocks off the fan vent which is designed to cool the system down. Other users do not realize that they need to clean off dust so it doesn't collect in the vent and excessive dust can also lead to overheating as it blocks the free flow of air in and out of the unit.
Once you have cleaned dust off of your console and placed it in an area where it is not obstructed, it's time to try a couple quick fixes:
Unplug the console from the wall for half an hour, then plug it back in.

The only reason to ever pay the shipping to Sony is if you have a valid warranty that will pay for the repairs completely. Otherwise, you can do it cheaper and much, much faster by using a good online program with video instruction.
