We all know smoking is bad for our health and if you smoke yourself you should quit cause it will kill you. But what’s more important is if you smoke around your PS3 it will kill that too (OH NO!)

Ive had my PS3 for about 4 years now and while I’m currently using my PS3 Slim (purchased last year) my original PS3 is still work and this is while certain friends i know have gone through 2 or 3 PS3′s and one of them has even gone through 6 of them. So why does this happen to some people more than others? Well, Don’t you think it’s a coincidence that the only people I know who have had either the Yellow Light Of Death or just straight up had their PS3′s conk out on them ALL! smoke while playing PS3.

I have to admit my original PS3 did start to over heat a little due to dust getting sucked in through the cooling fan and all it required was me to vacuum all the PS3 vents about once a month and that kept it from getting too hot where the loud fan would kick in. So we know the PS3 gets pretty hot and a high powered fan is needed to stop it from over heating, but think of what damage your doing to it if your cigarette or weed smoke (weed smoke is the worst as it clogs things up a lot more) all that nicotine and smoke gets sucked into your PS3 and clings on to it’s insides causing it to heat up and eventually it will heat up to much and cause serious damage.

I guess if your PS3′s warranty has run out and if you’re up to it, you might be able to open it up, clean it and replace the broken parts but at the end of the day you just shouldn’t smoke around your PS3.

Want to quit smoking? Here’s my advice.

I used to smoke and I managed to give up a few years ago. One of the things that helped me get though it was nicotine chewing gum. It gave me a nicotine supply without smoking and also made me realise how NASTY! nicotine is. If you chew the gum too much it makes you throw up but you need nicotine if your used to smoking cause you’re addicted to it. Try it.

Also while I was in the process of quitting, about 3 or 4 months in. someone gave me some helpfull advice. When you feel your self reaching for that cigarette, just think to your self “is it really worth giving up all those months of quitting for a few minutes of enjoyment” I think you will find the answer is no.

Quit smoking smokers it’s bad for your health and more importantly your PlayStation 3.
