You may have noticed a number of gaming websites have been reporting on how some people have been suffering from technicals issues regarding their PS4's.

Looking at the actual numbers from the article link below we can see the failure rate was a measely .4% of consoles.

There are a couple of reasons why I believe this got blown way out of proportion 

The fact that the PS4 is in the spotlight right now and people reporting problems are getting way more attention than normal

The PS4 launch is absolutely massive and therefore .4% is still allot of products to have go wrong unfortunately

Fanboys, nuff said

And lest those is glass houses throw stones let us not forget the Xbox 360 has an average failure rate of about 33% at the time, some figures going as high as 56% in Ausralia where console overheating was more of a problem for us.
