Did MGS4 kill my 60gb or can it be saved?

I have two friends whos 60gb ps3's have failed. one was within warranty so he had a replacement with a couple weeks. the other one's ps3 was out of warranty and I convinced him to pay the $200 something to get a replacement, this took a little longer though (he was planning on pay $550 for a new one). they both got 60gb units as replacements.

Just how high is the failure rate on the PS3's?

The real failure rate, not the .5-2% bandied about.

 

 

 

I don't know. The one that failed within warranty had the slot loading mechanism break and it wouldn't eject discs. His was replaced quickly but this also happened at the tail end of being able to get a 60gb in store. My other friend's 60gb that broke was getting all sorts of crazy graphics glitches and games freezing up on him. His took a while longer, but there was some complications and sony was slow.
