Darth Tigris's cousins' PS4 also died

I wouldn't believe a single word coming from Darth Tigris when it comes to Sony related stuff.

Just a quick tought, VGchartz number can help us have an ideaof how widespread the failures are but its still a very small number os its boudn to be skewed in favor of working or dead. I still firmly believe the numebr of reports of dead PS4s has to do exclusevely with the fact that 1 million of them sold in 1 day, and if you have 1% of those dead youll have 10k dead consoles wich would completly clog Sonys support phone lines and would generate tons of reports on the internet about how the launch of the PS4 was a disaster.

Help him fix it

Mines works like a charm and I have a friend who has one as well with no issues.

His was replaced with a working one though, so the faulty will be returned to Sony by GameStop. Can't add it if the broken PS4 isn't actually in a consumers possession.

He will need to post here.

Mine works great :P

UPDATE : Included Darthtigris' cousin's (1) good, (1) DOA PS4. Will remove if he fails to post in this thread.
