After seeing my Ducks lose, I have been feeling very pessimistic about things.


Your issue was not heading into the game pessimistic about things. What made you think that the Ducks could be The Allmighty Cardinal?


The allmighty Cardinal losing to Utah.

:( bad memories.

It would seem at the very worst case situation that some HDDs are defective and/or have bad sectors, so far all of the problems I have read about except for igns has been directly related to HDD and removing it and replacing it in many instances allowed it to boot again.

 

It would seem turning off your ps4 by disconnecting the power is a terrible idea at all times.



Ive been through RROD a few times, im ready.

I thonk he was trolling, I watched him for like 3 hours.

He had the camera set in an angle were you could only see the HDMI cable pluged into the system. He constantly unplugged and "plugged" in back into the TV but from the angle he could have just been droping the wire to the floor.

He had two guys trying to give him calm instructions on what to do through skype, when ever they said something I thougt would be a good idea, he ignored them and decided to rage and the troll comenters in his feed. The irritating thing is ignoring the trolls was something they kept telling him to do.

The whole time I never got the impressio that he was really trying to accomplish anything at all. I feel stupid for watching for 3 hours and I feel embarassed for all who claimed to watch for 10 or more hours.

I think there's still an issue, but I'm hoping that for both Xbox one and ps4 these issues stay below 5% at least till the end of the year

If we multiply the reported issues by 10 fold and consider that taco bell gave out 4400 PS4's that owuld mean that about 1% of consoles are effected. 

5 instances of reported console failures x 10 (for those not reporting and to be safe) = 50 broken consoles. 50/4400=.011

hack even if there is 20 times more than reported, we still are only talking about slightly more than 2%. I think everyone can relax.
