Yeah 16% OUT OF 1040. Not 16% out of 29 million.Until i see OFFICIAL articles that RROD is dead i refuse to believe.

As i said i believe failure rate dropped but its not under 20% for sure.

I think 1040 is a pretty good sample of consoles tested. 16% of 1040 is seems fairly representative to me.

 

 

Its still A LOT. And 20-32% of 29 million is NOT good sample of consoles tested

The 360 is competing with the PC and losing
The Ps3 is competing with HD adoption rates and the recession, and is losing
The Wii is competing with nobody, it wins.

OK, but that is not a mission statement is it? Saying that nether was MS's. That is one mans enthusiasm, and considering this was a quote from 1994, before the playstation was released and 7 years before the xbox I hardly think this counts as I think you are taking the quote out of context. He meant the biggest rival will be PC gaming. With over 100 million units sold of the original playstation and the size of the console market now, i think he may well have been right

Though I will concede that most of those quotes sound dam arrogant.

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

It is still a lot, that's kinda my point though. And let me put it this way, if a drug company can get away with sampling a new drug on only 1040 human beings (actually anywhere between 300-3000) out of 6 billion during phase 3 clinical trials, I don't see how 1040 out of 29millions consoles can be scoffed at. So the best number we have at present is 16%, which is about 13% too high.

It's not really feasible to test more then that really and MS aren't going to give any real figures until they're within industry standards which may not even happen.
