They should add the following category...

Number of failures after 1st year of ownership that people had to pay for:

360: 0% (prolly around 15-20% actually for people who had the DVD drive die and they didn't want to lie and say its RROD)
PS3: 100%
Wii: 100%

Number of failures after 2st year of ownership that people had to pay for:

360: 0%
PS3: 100%
Wii: 100%

what ?

I only know 1 system that has 3 year of warranty for 2 issues which cause 70% of its failures.

I had to pay to repair my 360 after a year and a half (no RROD, the console would just freeze after being on for 1-5 minutes.

I did NOT have to pay to repair my PS3 when it failed after a year and 2 months (they quietly extended the warrenty on launch PS3s for a few extra months when a lot of them started getting YLOD).

So I guess, well, you're wrong.
