Proof? Just because Mr Stickball says so doesn't mean it's fact. Sure, 360s have become more reliable but they are still very poorly engineered and designed so the console will always have quite a high failure rate. I rekon the launch PS3s and the Jaspers would have about the same rate.

Yeah probably a launch PS3, but why would you speculate that it has a lower rate than a slim? It's only been out for a week lol.

launch ps3 have gone over 2 years. average.
no i doubt it. and we don't know that yet, jasper appear then E74 errors starting popping up

Sorry? Everything breaks. You take a gamble with everything you buy. At least with the PS3 the odds are in the consumer's favor.

@Indodude

I dont even think the PS3 slim is out yet,I thought it came out the first?

and Its smaller therefore more heat gets trapped inside.

Oh think if Sony spent 400$ make the PS3 slim,sold it for 300$ Lost profit right? Wrong!

They intentionally break down so you pay Sony 200$ That means Sony is making a 100$ profit.

They are brilliant.

Slims are out in the US, have been for 4-5 days. I'm petting it right now, actually.

*pets* good boy...

I'm sorry that has to happen to some people.


I lurv my launch 60GB.

@ Garnett

In the Slim less heat is produced, it's design has ensured that heatflow is smooth ans there are basically no air gaps for hot air to go into and cause damage (unlike the 360). It also has a monster 12v fan to keep things cool.

:P

hmm no, slim have a BEST IN CLASS 17 fins fan. its going to stay cool i assure you.

sony it's not even making profits on the ps3, all cospiracy theory crumbles.
