Guys really its just an internet poll, No need for fighting and bickering if its right or not, if you don't believe it than that's fine hes just posting the results of a survey, no need for the defensive attitudes here from any side... this site is getting bad...

On topic, well i had three of my friends 360's RROD on them, one of them it RROD'd three times. The third time he just went out and bought a PS3, I personally had my PS3 break on my twice, the second time an hour after receiving it fixed from Sony (Which they did have a year Warranty, cause it was the laser diode) and my best friend just had his break while playing COD and he went out and got a new slim, my Wii however is a horse, That thing just keeps on going :P

With a PS3 sig of course you do.


Just like YOU don't WANT to belive any of this is cuz you have an XBOX360 tag under your name, right!?

Just like YOU do WANT to believe most of this (apart from the only factual part of the article) because you have a PS3 tag under your name, right?

Oh this is fun and easy. I see why the PS3 lot troll the MS threads all the time. Ok next one...

Just like YOU WANTED to post this so badly even though you don't own a 360 right?

Just like YOU and HIM are so desperate to ignore the only real evidence in the article YOU posted right?

Just like YOU are so desperate to to believe it you take anecdotal evidence without question then question those that question the poll, right?

So if there's a broken poll about the PS3's reliability rate you would take it as fact and challenge those that question it?
Of course you would. Why would you question a poll that says it has an acceptable reliability rate.

Try harder next time

 

Oh and I hope you was being rhetorical and not finding disbelief in my response. Might make you a bit of a hypocrite.



Extremely misleading and unreliable survey. There is absolutley no way more than half of 360's sold break. MS is taking a beating with the figure as it is, so I doubt it's that high.

Plus, didn't we get more reliable numbers earlier this year that said 360 had close to a 25% failure rate? While PS3 was like 15% and Nintendo close to 7%.

Anyway anything that fanboys can have a hand in, whether its by voting or writing the article itself, I will not believe. I've got many friends with 360's, and while many of us (including myself) have had the RROD, I'd say more than half of us haven't. I know that means nothing, but 60% would mean practically everyone of us should have RROD'd.

Reply to my post......



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

maybe at launch, I doubt now they still stand correct.



With my experience with MS sounds about right. So far my original PS3 is still going, Keep my fingers crossed. I don't have a Wii , but the people i know that have one, only a few have had issues. The wii is the most simple of the 3 , so it does not surprise me it has the least amount of issues, kinda like the PS2, not to many issues, pretty simple system compared to PS3 and 360.
