Finally fixed something that should have never happened in the first place.

Win?

Funny.  You didn't take the same attitude in Burgles thread a minute ago when you implied customers should be grateful Sony finally included rumble in the PAL PS3.

Tons different.

If you don't have a DS3, you're still entirely capable of playing a game.

If you have RRoD, are  you still capable of playing a game?

To be fair, both Sony & MS have spent much of the generation fixing their own fuck ups. With MS, it was obviously the RRoD. With Sony, they launched with no rumble, a completely half-assed PSN, and later removed BC. Now it appears that software BC is on the way.

Both companies deserve a lot of flak for the things they have done in the past three years. Picking on MS for the RRoD and ignoring Sony's own transgressions with tossing a $600 unfinished PS3 on the market is rather hypocritical (and not to mention, completely ignores Sony and their horrible reliability with early PS1s and PS2s).

Oh of course.

I'm not picking on one company over the other, just bringing starcraft's comment into context. 

Sony has messed up tons this generation, and previous generations too, and is fixing that, which is fine, but again, nothing to the scale of RRoD.
