i hear they shipped more like 200,000 ps3s too. . .this makes the 360 launch look successful
Poor...Poor...Sony...never had a chance...well they NEVER had a chance =P
i can see a mass recall in all of this... thats how many?
like 4 mass recalls in the past two years?
well sony better start digging landfills.
a good thing about the external "power brick" is the MS are revise the design of it later (small etc) with out having to redesigning the main console. that will keep production running smoother. Also a new revision of the brick should work on first gen xbox360's, while the old ps3 will be stuck being big
Does anyone have any idea what kind of demands are placed on those game store demo units? Some of those demo cases are just cabinets with plexiglass fronts and a switch, with hardly any ventilation.
Also, take into consideration that those units are on, for a good 12-16 hours a day, if not more (you know the night crew comin in want to play games too...), with game store employees playing them constantly during slowdowns (during school hours how many people come into a game store? probably 1 per hour....)
So quick to judge without doing any thinking is just stupid.
No, but having been to them on many occasions, its quite easy to see what these systems must endure. The fact that this person walked into a WAL-MART (which, is a place of business that doesn't care for the humans who work there, so I imagine they don't care much a demo unit of any product...) and saw this doesn't surprise me at all.
Now when we start hearing about claims of fried PS3s from actual casual, home users (not some asshole without a job and lives with mommy and can play 24/7, thats not indicative enough of the gaming populous as a whole) then Sony will have something to even be concerned with.
just because two overused ps3s are fried doesnt mean its the end of the line and sony will have a mass recall!!! still not buying one tho lol!
