The truth is 360 had huge failure rate, IMO 15% or more of that 40m is dead. |
No one is denying that, but that article has no validity.
The 15% is possible. Normal failures aside, shit happens. The PS3 could also be that high. God knows how many consoles have broken from normal hardware failure. Lets not forget a lot of consoles got bricked from updates and even FFXIII. Sony doesn't cover those repairs.
