I think people got used to ignore hardware failures during the PS1 and PS2 era.

Not saying the PS1 and PS2 were as bad as the 360 is, but they were still pretty bad in terms of reliability.

That actually is what makes me NOT want a 360. I hated when my PS2 failed on me, so much so I promised myself never to buy a known faulty console. I held off on buying a PS3 because I wanted to be sure it was reliable (that and waiting for 1st price drop). I refuse to spend money on a 360 due to reliability.  Bit of a shame because I'd love to tryout Fable 2 and Gears of War.

Yeah, but unless that faulty ps2...you get it repaired for free...sure you lose time playing...but I've got so many options, if my 360 was OOC, I could simply play PC games, like I'm doing down with Champions Beta, while playing Shadow Complex, and tryign to get geared up to start playing madden.  Now, if M$ was like "Fuck You" customer...then gamers would have a very legitimate gripe...imho.
