| Planargod said: TOTAL BS ands lies... The 360 had by far the worst failure rate of any electronic device, it was faulty right at launch. It launched in 2005..MS denied there was an issue for 2 years before finally giving in after documents leaked of MS engineers warning of issues before launch and threat of lawsuit. By that time 60 + % of 360's had died many times in some cases. MS ducked it for 2 years by then damage was done.
I went through 2 360's and MS told me too bad...On top of that the disc read errors were nearly as bad as RROD, and it plagued many early xboxes as well as other iussues.
MS rushed it out of fear of the PS brand at the consumers expense, knowing there were issues.
Ps2 was sold for 10 years and sold 150 million, of course there would be some issues they were not even close to the faulty 360 design...PS2's were well within normal operating rates of electronics.
Defending RRROD and comparing it to ps2 issues are moronic and dilusional. |
MS denied there was an issue and Sony totally ignored the YOLD issue. I will definitely say that the RROD was definitely a big issue but that still does not excused the YOLD issue suffered by many PS3 fat owners like myself and I am not even going to talk about the CD issue with the PS2 which I went through 3 of those issues. Either way, just because one company had a bad failure rate does not excuse the other one because it was less. Not sure how bad the YOLD issue was for the PS3 but there was EU article that said it was just as high as the RROD.
What I find moronic is dissing another hardware company issues just because someone else had it worst. If you are the owner of a defective Unit like I was, you do not care how much the competition is having problems you want your console fixed without having to pay 150 bones. Sony has had problems with their hardware for 3 solid generations so the pattern is more in their court than MS or Nintendo.
