Reading this article got me wondering how many working 360 consoles there are. It says the 54% of 360 owners had at least one hardware failure while 41% of those owners had another hardware failure. I know it's old but I wanted to know what everyone thought.

 Also; do you think that there are more woking 360's than ps3's.

Well the overal accepted number of failure rate has been 25%'ish So go 39m x 0.75.

Are you sure you didn't vote under 20?

Go 25% out of X number sold at the time prior to the 3 year warranty, minus 39m then. I dont care.. i just dont think this issue justifies a thread when one can do some math on it by oneself for an estimated number.


A better thread would've been a "ive done some numbers and this is what i come up with, whats your thoughts."-thread.

 

EDIT: And oh.. i dont mean to come off as a douche towards you. You're input is very valid.

Asking that on internet forums won't get you a good answer...

Yeah, absolutely sure.

Trolling is an art and picking one of the first four options is definitely a stupid idea, because the attach rate argument bites back. The best way to make the 360 look bad in this case is the sixth option. Well, actually it doesn't make the 360 look bad, but it prevents the other consoles from looking bad in terms of, you know, attach rate.

I wonder how many trolls grasp this concept. Looking forward to the poll results.

It's not really working, they prefer for the quick "LOLZ Xbox Fails" approach

 

All this proves is that the Xbox's attach rate is through the roof though ...

Most people send their xbox's in to Microsoft and get them fixed so i would bet the 6th option is the only valid one
