Myth:  Microsoft made it okay to launch a console with faulty hardware

"Also suffered" is grossly missleading. Neither the PS1's nor PS2's fail rates were ever comparable.


I can only speak from personal experience but PS2s fail rates were some of the worst ever. Probably worse than 360s. To make it even worse a broke 360 is broke, no question about it. But a PS2 had multiple ways to break, I don't technically have a broken PS2 at the moment but I also don't have one capable of playing blue disc games so...

Edit: As for PS1, didn't know there were ever problems with them. My original PS1 still works

I broke 3 PS1s (and many of my friends at the time had problems too). Only had one PS2 though.

Again, the consoles certainly had problems but the OP is baseless. Nothing comes close to the fail rates of the 360 consoles (until the 2008 motherboard revision).
