Is your Xbox 360 an E74 victim?

Again, PSX, PS2... I do believe those are the worst designed consoles in history when you want to talk about problems. The fact that Sony lost a class action law suit that forces them to repair/replace any PS2 where the customer claims a Disc Read Error message, for free, should tell you about the build quality.

The RRoD and E74 are pretty widespread, but I would say still not as widespread as DREs for the PS2 or the massive overheating problems and needing to have the console upside down because the optical drive was complete crap in the PSX before they redesigned it to the PSOne smaller version.

I beg to differ. During the PS2 era. I barely heard about the DRE problem. I blame that to the people who don't take care of their games. Often leaving game disc with the readable side on a table or the floor, getting fingerprints on the disc. Then saying the PS2 has a DRE problem. Obviously, look how you treat your games. I still have my PS2 from launch and it works just fine and so do all my friends.

RRoD was a far bigger problem. There's really no comparing. In the modern times of gaming. The RRoD is the worst most controversial problem a console has ever had. There's no one I know who didn't have an RRoD. It was such a widespread problem that it became a Phenomenon, spawning t-shirts, mock videos, even IGN has a blogcast called the RRoD.

I must be in the minority then... I have a near launch PS2 that still works like a charm. And another used ps2 I got several years back for my dad. I also have a PS1... it also works perfectly. Hell, even my Sega genesis, NES, SNES, and Atari work like champs. When/if I play them.

Its all about how you treat your games and console.

your an idiot for two reasons:

1.First and foremost for the way your spell and talk on the internet.
2. A ps3 does'nt freeze if your computer is on if they're both on the internet you tool. (and even if it somehow did, least it doesnt melt when you play games like the 360)

And PS3 has NO problems cobomusicinc. why would you connect any game to a bad internet connection??? sounds like a personal problem.
Get a job and get Verizon FiOS, you wont have a problem.

Im not bias about PS3 or 360 but PS3 appeals to me waaay more in every aspect from graphics to performance and quality. If microsoft would actually invest in their products like sony did, they might have a quality product that doesnt have a new unkown malfunction every 6 months. which shows you that they are continuing to build crappy systems without fixing the problems. That new red limited edition will probably do the same thing also.

I havent touched my 360 in 5 months due to lack of interest in using the system, i even have the some of the same games for each system and i always like PS3s version better. They have a virtual world, connecting to the internet is FREE, wireless internet is standard, blue ray player is standard. if you want to make an xbox 360 comparable to the PS3, then you have to buy atleast an elite version, then add the hd dvd player and wireless internet, youve already gone over the price of a new ps3 wich has all the standard, not to mention blue ray is better, quality, and they discontinued hd dvds so that option is basically obsolete now.

i can go on for days just from my personal experience about how ps3 is better in every aspect out of any entertainment system out today besides the good ol' pc or mac. yet the ps3 is still a faster computer then the majority of computers out there.
