Hope this isnt old news but couldn't see anything about it on the first 3 pages. . .

Going by this article it seems Microsoft and the Xbox360 are not the only ones suffering from faulty consoles. I wanted to post this as there has been lots of talk recently on these forums of the Xbox360 RROD and i wanted bring it to everyones attention that yes the Xbox360 has got a high failure rate but it isn't and won't be the only one for long.

After reading the article what do you guys/girls think on the issue with this generation of apparantly faulty hardware?

Sony fails at life. Hopefully their slims won't have such failures.

Why do both companies not try to fix the issue? The RROD should have been fixed a long time ago.

I'd agree that the 60gb and the other backward compatible PS3s may have higher failure rates but any of the other models tend to be fine.
