I don't see how it "works both ways" when the PS3, and even the Wii damnit, have ALWAYS had <1% failure rate. PS3s breaking is a rare occurence. 360s breaking is a common occurence. You can't compare the two. And how do you know the fail rate of Jaspers? No percentages have been calculated yet...only for Falcons, and those were reported at 16%..not 3% (which is really funny because when RRoD first started being recognized, M$ said the 360 fail rate was 3%)

And stop yapping, like is still a big problem? It IS still a big problem. Why is it STILL happening everywhere? Why is it STILL making headlines? Why do 360s continually fail at EVERY gaming expo (E3, TGS, CES, etc) year in and year out...when M$ is trying to separate themselves from that image? I don't care if they fix it for free. It shouldn't be a problem that you always have to be on your toes for. It should be an issue of IF it's going to happen, not WHEN

 

I say you've been eating BS again.

HDDs have a failure rate above 1% per year, and every PS3 has a HDD. Does this simple fact compute?

 

 

That HDD failure rate includes 10 year old hard drives in PCs. The hard drives in new PS3s can not be older than 2 years or so.
