The system does not seem like it will even try to read the discs. Yet it plays movies. This happened when I switched games, the game loaded and froze. The game was able to be ejected but I had to turn system off using the main rear switch. Turned it back on and everything seemed normal other than it not playing games.

Return under warranty.
the blu ray laser will have been slightly overheated and as a result will need to be replaced.
SOURCE: Disc read error
mine would read disks but like in the middle of the game the stuoid game would freez
SOURCE: PS3 WILL play games but NOT Blu-ray or regular DVDs
hold the power button down when it is red till you hear the quick beeps then select the file restore. this is a diagnostics screen...you may have to hold the power button in for several seconds....does your ps3 work on a non hidef tv?
Testimonial: "Thanks, restoring the original settings worked. A picture will only display up to a resolution of 1080i, not 1080p."

Hi,
This problem is common with the PS3 and typical of a failure of the bluray drive. It can sometimes be resolved by cleaning the laser pickup lens but often the lens itself needs to be replaced.
For a full breakdown on the issues involved please view this FixYa Tip.
Thanks for using FixYa.

The problem is not normally with the discs itself but with the lens coming away from where it needs to be.
You just need to readjust the lens that sounds difficult but really it is not too tough.
