If the Ps3 breaks due to faulty stuff you *Gasp* send it to Sony for a new one
If the stuff inside the Ps3 is faluty then Sony will replace it. and if you don't want to buy the first ver. then wait.
(Lots of figureing out we had to do their.....)

They're dropping the price, but they're taking out all weak points on any crab-based enemies to compensate.
Also games will cost your right kidney.
I heard they're taking some of the "R"s out of RRRRRRRRRIDGE RRRRACERRRRRRRRR....

2) SNES and N64 carts had you blow into them once in awhile, but they worked after one of two tries. If not, then you need to take care of your games a bit better. That's like complaing that a game disc got scratched because you stored it without a case.
3) Blowing into carts is MUCH LESS OF A PROBLEM than a system overheating, a disc read error, dozens of dead pixels, or anything that cuases you to send your system in for repairs when it is brand new.
I don't think it was meant to be an arguement.
My problem with PS2's are that they have to be cleaned frequently and they are the most sensitive for example on an episode of X-play Morgan Web does a test to see which game console in current generation is the best built and guess who was the first to break/ pS2, with Xbox in 2nd and Gamecube in 1st. Gamecube got hit by a sledgehammer, hit by a weight and was dropped and it still worked. Sony is getting over us, but at least they have the best games.
Whoops, I see now. Well, I am still going to leave it up there because I have seen people use that argument towards Nintendo's so-called "faulty" hardware.Quote:

And with Nintendos I always dropped those when I was little and they still work today only not as well, probably due to age, but I still can play them for hours at a time without them freezing or something else.Quote:

Gamecube is still a very robust console. This is due to the components being lighter and better contained.
I bought a PS2 about a year after it came out, and had no problems. However, I do think that as a whole Gamecubes are sturdier and last longer.
We have 55 used Game Cubes at my work. :D
