Any console ever had an higher fail rate than 360?

360 is already 3 years on the market and RROD is out there. I had a PS2 too and it failed too, but saying it was bigger than 360 is just insane I think.

 

While know one truely knows what was fixed when - I think it's generally accepted that RROD was fixed (not impossible, but down to to normal failure rates) with Falcon - about 18 months after the initial release.

It is not generally accepted that RRoD is fixed.  It is generally accepted that it has gotten better.  35% to 15% is an improvement , but no where near the PS2 failure rate or the PS3 or Wii.  Again this is the 3rd year and it still has a failure rate around 15%.  My launch PS2 lasted 7 years.  It did die, but I doubt any launch 360 will still be running after 7 years of use.
