There is a problem with the game and first gen PS3 where the screen will go black randomly during normal play. The screen goes black, but the gameplay continues. Player names, mob namess, maps, chat, all remains. But you cant see anything else.

This problem is well documented on the forum, and elsewhere on the internet. Post after post, but nothing on how to address the problem:
