No they don't. There is no evidence of it, just as there is no evidence of an increase in PS3's breaking.
I said this a few times in the past... 60GB are breaking down this year at a alarming rate
my launch PS3 console is still runing fine.
VITA 32 GIG CARD.250 GIG SLIM & 160 GIG PHAT PS3

proof please
Well mine just started failing yesterday... so I SURE HELL HOPE NOT!
just when I happened to get a home theater to complete the set...
Looks like a BD drive problem, plays DVD's and all. BDs games play for like 5 min then they die... IF they start at all...
Mine's an 80GB 'Motorstorm' by the way

hahaha like 1 or 2% maybe. Link or it isn't a serious problem. |
Do you have any official numbers to back up that claim? Search for "replacement PS3 drives" and "YOLD fix" on any search engine and you will get all the links you want.

I'll tell you the same thing, do a google search and you will find all the evidence you need. From multiple YLOD fix tutorials, to replacement DVD drives, and even people that offer repair services. Try ebay, and look at the ammount of broken PS3s and replacement parts for sale. If that isn't enough evidence I don't know what is.
It's pretty simple, Sony isn't out there selling time-bombs to screw people over. These are complicated, high-tech pieces of equipment and shit happens. My PS3 gave me the YLOD after about a year and it was out of warranty so I had to fix it myself. It was pretty simple (very similar to the RROD fix), I just replaced the cheap ass thermal compound that Sony uses with my own Silver compound and reflowed the chipset with a heat gun. It works pretty well now but it will crash every once in a while. The problem is that the chips put out way too much heat, even thoguh Sony has a pretty decent cooling system. It will get better over time, Sony usually improves their hardware quality with revisions.

Why don't you do a google search for us since you seem to want to prove that PS3's fail a lot.
A little sensitive no? Do yourself a favor and take a look.

While I totally believe you that all that stuff is there, it doesn't equal proof that there is an increase in PS3's breaking. It just shows that PS3's can break, and people want to fix them.
