Exactly. You can't take Microsofts word for this. You'll have to watch out for these reports online or take the risk yourself and be an early adopter.

you also have to take the risk as ps4 or tamagotchi buyer. just because the 360 had such a huge problem doesn't mean that the chance is higher for xbox one as for ps4. you just have to look at the product photos to see that they did everything possible to cool it down. not to forget that it want produce so much heat as 360 did even without cooling.

microsoft increased the warranty to 3 years for the 360 when they had those problems and i have still problems to understand why some people bought like 5 or more consoles. everything produced after mid 2009 or something like that was pretty much perfect in build quality. no clue how people managed to destroy so many consoles before this time without getting a free  replacement/repair.

so yes, 360 had huge problems but that has nothing to do with another product just because it's also from this company. 

The original XBox had problems, too.  Even if the console ends up doing amazing stuff, I wouldn't buy it until it has a nice track record with a low failure rate.

I'm probably gonna wait to make sure there are no issues, what issues did the original xbox have though? I dropped mine down the stairs and the thing still worked!!
