Ohh not this again... like past Playstations never had problems but people seem to give that a free pass... I don't want a repeat of the red ring that's for sure but seeing how they handled the fiasco by giving 3 years warranty that cost them billions I would be very surprised they don't take this seriously this time... now tell me where are the warranties for the ylod and PS2 disc read error... exactly!

They only handed out those free warranties after years of denying there was even a problem. Did those people who paid to get thier console even get refunds?

The PS3/PS2 failure rates were within industry standards. You have the option to buy extended warranties just like with any other electronic device. Sony wasn't in any way expected to hand out free extened warranties or repairs.

About that PS2 disc read error http://www.gamespot.com/news/sony-settles-ps2-class-action-suit-6139482
Sony settled the class action lawsuit in order to avoid the time and money a trial would take. Funnily enough, this was back in 2005. If these PS2 disc errors were really that much of a problem, there would have been lawsuits years ago.

I see you are making things up again!
The warranty was extended 18 months after release. So no, MS did not deny it for years.
