So a few months ago I got Beyond Two Souls and started it is when the problem seemed to happen.

The game completely crashed and ever since then hasn't been able to read discs (No problem buying games digitally and playing them, noticed the problem that Beyond wouldn't work in Ps3's was a fairly common one

Anything I can do? Or do I need to replace the laser or whatever it is that reads discs?

Is it all games or just two souls?
Most likely the ps3 lens needs to be cleaned

It sounds like the optical drive is failing but it would hard to pinpoint the problem specifically.

I know right. Sony is so good. What other consoles with optical drives fail at 10 years. My GameCube failed within a couple years. Sony has some really good quality.
