Ok, So I got MAG when it released and played up until about 4 days ago (on both my home ps3 and work ps3) without issue.  All of a sudden, MAG freezes up my ps3 at home.  Usually after a match and just before the MVP screen.  Everything goes black and I have to totally restart ps3.  All other games work on system.  This doesnt happen on ps3 at work. 
 
Home ps3= 120 gig release edition (with the 4 usb ports and lift up front with 3 different memory card slots)
 
Work ps3= 40 gig refurb from EB games.
 
Any thoughts?????
Tons of memory left on both ps3's
 
 
PS....I'll be at Lvl 60 by the end of today.  Yes I'm at work.

Looks like you may have to do a system restore on the 120g if it keeps freezing.

Congrats on Level 60!!!! Mine only freezes on the Domination screen (VALOR map) right before the game starts. Too much info being loaded I think. But that wouldn't be the case at the end of a game.

Not 100% sure coz I don't play MAG however it could be something to do with your router? If the game is starting I doubt its the ps3.

Have you tried using your ps3 by taking it into work?

I have endless respawn problems with MAG.  It has gotten to the point that I don't even play acquisiton or domination now, since even committing suicide won't work in bunkers or vehicles. 

Basically if I am in a APC and it gets destroyed while I am in respawn counter waiting to spawn in it - I become locked out in endless respawn loop.  If I choose to paradrop or helicopter spawn and they get their AA back up my camera stays on the plane/chopper until it flies off the map, and I can't respawn - just watch the battle from my POV out of the map.  And if someone plants a charge on a bunker that I respawn from - even if we defuse it - I can't spawn.  The little yellow respawn here icon pops up, but the "press O to spawn" prompt is gone and I can't spawn even if I suicide. 

So I just play Sabotage - knowing that I will have to suicide at least 3-4 times to fix my spawn.  Basically I've found out that when waiting to respawn and you click "choose spawn location" if it doesn't let you click and choose - just suicide and you will spawn in 20 more seconds

Yeah Dan is correct, in UT3 my router freezes it everytime, won't let u do nothing. I can go unplug the router and plug it staright into the dsl modem and boom the game unfreezes and no problems. I say its ur router acting with it and not the PS3.
Currently playing MAG nightly with Wopr, we be owning on SVER n the EF CLAN. UT3 got boring, no competition, nothing else to prove, qM got dat **** on lock.

I haven't had any of these problems yet.  Hopefully, they fix these issues soon because they sound kind of game-breaking.  I'd sure be pissed if I suddenly couldn't respawn anymore, because the other team just doing their objectives.

Only guessed that because BFBC used to freeze constantly on my home ps3... :(

MAG sounds pretty amazing, wish it had come out a little earlier :(

It could be when a certain type of information is transferred the router rejects it. Just try your ps3 on someone else's wireless first. Then at least you have the easiest option eliminated.
