Sony's marketing should take advantage of defective 360s.

I learned tolerance of defective consoles during the PS1 + PS2 eras.

Actually, my 360 has been no more problematic than my PS2, and less so than my PS1. And, hell, at least Microsoft admitted they had a problem and took care of it for me.

ps1 and ps2 failure eras...gimme a break! Infact if we had to talk about an era, it would definitely be the xbox1 and 360 era for which the former failed miserably to gain console market share whereas the latter broke record in H/W failure rate. I don't understand why certain people just cherry pick such examples in a vague attempt without observing true facts. It could be personal problems like few ps2s or ps1 h/w failures..But we should take generally the whole scenario of console failure.

I had two PS2s that got the DREs. Every person I know with a PS2 has had DREs from time to time and most ended up replacing them.

Sony even settled the lawsuit: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6139482.html

And folks are cherry picking? You're funny. Tell that to the folks who had to take Sony to court to get their PS2 replaced.
