Computer Shut down

Hi, My Computer Shuts down in the middle of Games and the only way I can get it back up is to Switch the Power button off in the back and Pull out the Power cable, leave for 5-10 mins and come back. Usually will turn back on after 2 or 3 tries. When It doesnt come back on I hear the Power supply start to kick in then dies again.. It is getting worse and worse, shutdown is getting more Frequent. Could it be the PSU? or something Different? Thanks
