Any console ever had an higher fail rate than 360?

The first year or so of the PS2 was pretty bad, they might have well been disposable.  People like to forget about it, but they were every bit just as bad as the 360's then (of course it did get fixed).  I remember using the DVD player on the PS2 use to mean certain death for it.

 

That's how I actually discovered the world of XBOX.  My PS2 DVD-drive crapped out on me, and Sony wouldn't help me, so I bought an XBOX and have been playing ever since.

I did eventually buy another PS2, but not before the world of XBOX took hold of me.
