Lol, what. Here everyone and their grandma had a PS2, not one failed in all its lifetime. No repairs, no nothing. The idea of a dead console was an alien concept. On the other hand the only person I knew with a 360 went through 4 of them (and 2 PS3s). Ps2 was an unbreakable diamond compared to PS3 and (specially) 360, not even close. Last gen was the worse for reliability.

On topic, I thought this was going to be a Polygon article..but I guess they already do that anyway. MS is cut too much slack due to American favoritism, things would be a lot worse with less bias. They have it so easy.


Really? What's wrong with the way they are now, when it comes to the X-Box One? The reveal was a mess, but under Phil Spencer, they've turned things around and are now delivering. So how is "too much bias" affecting them positively? Are you sure it isn't your bias trying to downplay them unfairly?

As for the PS2, while it is completely false to say it had a worse failure rate than the 360 (not even close), it certainly wasn't of the same class as Nintendo's standard of durability either. Still, DJEVOLVE complains about people for being unfair to MS while he does the same against Sony in the same comment... Go figure.
