The last time I was able to hit the "PS" button and choose "Quit Game", but it ended up beeping a few times and rebooted the system. This game sucks if I have to deal with this.
UPDATE: I found a few forum posts about similar freezes and they all said to rebuild the PS3 database and it will work fine. I did, and it still doesn't work. I'm just about ready to scrap the idea.

UPDATE 2: I decided to give it another try last night. I deleted all the BF3 game data (two different sections in the PS3 XMB) and then started the game. It said it found the latest update (of course) and needed to DL it. So, ~750mb later, I installed the updates. After that, the game started fine and I was able to start a new campaign. I didn't have enough time to try to get into online play, but I'm hopeful it will work. It seems strange to me that deleting all the game data and reinstalling fixed my problems, but rebuilding the PS3 database didn't. Oh well.
