Iphone turns off by itself

Hi! Please help me!!

This iphone was just given to me so i dont know its specs but i believe its iphone 3gs. 32gb.

So this is what happened.

I was playing a game on my iphone until its battery dies. So i charged it. I decided to turn it on during the charge. I pressed the sleep button and nothing shows up so i decided to do the "restart" thingy. I frst pressed the sleepbutton then the home button till the apple logo appears. So yes! it appeared, it took so long though but it appeared. After that, the logo just dissappears, the screen goes black and go to the charging mode again and then goes back to the apple logo and charging mode again, AUTOMATICALLY. Sometimes, it reaches to the lock mode but then again the screen goes black and then goes back to charing mode again. WHAT SHOUD I DO??? I need your help guys!!

I even tried to plug it in the computer but its the same thing. Itunes wont even recognize the phone.

I'd say reset the device once more while its plugged in and leave it be for roughly 15mins.

For the iTunes part

Make sure your up to date with iTunes
Make sure your cord is plugged into the computer directly (tower or side(if laptop))
Try resetting the AMDS (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567)

If issue persist for both parts then you might need to place device in recovery mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097) and restore device as new. Hope it doesnt reach that point.

hope this helps a bit.
