Sony´s console weren´t great either. My PS1 must be turned upside down for playing. If I don´t do this, nothing.

For PS2, I´m currently on third. DRE in both cases.

So yelling on MS only is a little unfair.


Xbox 360 failure rate>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> PS1 & PS2 failure rate combined

You are quite full of it. When it came out PS2 had atleast 15% failure rate within the first year. Much more after the second and third year. Also, first 3 gen models of PS2 were affected with DRE issue. You could fix it (just like you can fix RROD) if you knew what you were doing.

PS1 as well had a high failure rate for first gen models...

So this whole ">>>>>>>>>" is completely wrong.  PS1 + PS2 failure rate should be about equal to xbox 360 failure rate.

Whats worse is that sony only gave you 90 day warranty for both PS1 and PS2. Where Microsoft gives you 3 years...


No it seems you quite full of it.  Please give me a link showing the PS2 had a 15% failure rate.
