the launch ps2's most defenitly had a failure rate greater than the 360. The 50% for the xbox was gotten from a survey filled out by magazine suscribers who may or may not have even owned 360s when they filled it out. When an actual warranty company was asked they said the failure rate was 23.7% though that was not from launch 360s.
The 360 controller is basically a slimmed down xbox controller. The xbox came out at the same time as the gamecube. So no copying there.
You are right about the disc scratching. You move the 360 even a little and it will probably destroy the disk.
