Why the 360 will ultimately succumb to the ps3...

well if you do want to bring up awful hardware quality, thats the ps2, i had 4 of them, 3 covered by warranty, the first one was not.

the original xbox, 2, my brother knocked over a burning wax candle onto the first one.

nes 1, at the end of the nes’s life i had to cram shit in it to keep the cartridge down

snes 2 , first one just stopped working, second one takes a few on offs to get working

ps1 2 , driver burned out while playing FF VII

n64 1, no problems ever

360 1, though i may take the first one in and change it out for the new model with the no questions asked warranty i have


so id say yea, sony has had crappy hardware, i played far more on my xbox than ps2, but the ps2s died every year hence me only owning 6 games for it ever, vs 29 for the xbox, original ps i had round 24

 

 That may be your experience, but I never had a problem with my launch PS2.  Didn't have any issues with any of the consoles I've owned.  Like the Atari 2600 & 5200, NES, SNES, PS1, xbox.  The only one I've had an issue with is when last month my 360 RRoD on me.   You may have had bad luck, or you were a bit hard on them.   Anyways, I can't say a bad thing about the Sony systems in my experience as they have worked well from day 1.
