We sure are hypnotized by Microsoft, it's kind of scary... Any other brand having that kind of flaw in its product gets banned from our house for life, not Microsoft products, we forgive them so many times no matter what happens next...
Windows crashes, ok, restart and continue, BSOD? hope i saved my stuff and i better check how i handle my PC, Registry? just format, IE? i don't mind that browser, Office problems? reinstall, and the list keeps going and going...
Meanwhile, i've seen people that say "My Samsung TV doesn't show picture, i'll never buy a Samsung TV again"... But the 360 gets the RROD, i don't hear them saying "I'll never buy a Microsoft console again"...
I don't know, maybe it's just me... |
BEST POST EVER! You have completely summed up my exact feelings about the 360 and the RROD. Why the hell are people so forgiving of Microsoft for such a faulty product? Anarchyz = my new hero.

If you look at my comment earlier you will see why people are so forgiving of the 360. In the same way people were so forgiving of the PS2 with it's unreliable laser reader with NO free extended warranty the Microsoft is giving out. I remember faulty PS2's flooding eBay and did gamers invest in alternatives? Some did but most went out and bought another PS2.

Personally, I never had any PS2 hardware issues. Regardless, I'm pretty confident the PS2 failure rate was nowhere near that of the 360.

I lost 2 PS2s to DRE and there was a lawsuit filed against Sony. http://www.gamespot.com/news/6139482.html
Unless I missed something, MS is repairing older consoles with RROD with newer motherboards that correct the problem. The Falcons and Jaspers don't suffer the same heating flaws, hince they are more reliable.
