You guys stick to your opinions. I'll stick to the raw sales figures. This is the same company that made the Dell computers burn from defective batteries.

8-) ... hmmm...

:| i wouldn't spend £400 on something that Sony have made, just for extreme profits... didn't the PS2 cost like £20 to make and they charged £140 at launch?

wonder how much the PS3 cost to make?

:| this problem would no doubt have been down to a hardware issue... dogey unit? yeah

:| my wi-fi router was DOA =(... stupid dynamode cheap tat-ish shit... SKY's routers look much prettier and work better too.

When the PS3 was launched in the USA there was something on google news uk that said that a few months later they were all in the 'SALE/BARGING' section at a greatly reduced price... :S

Every video game console sucks, yes, even the muther****ing Wii!

Major nuts, or ass. It doesn't matter. They still suck.

While it's unfortunate what happened to your PS3, it's not a common issue with PS3s by a long shot. They've had way fewer hardware issues than Xbox 360 (which is quite apparent on forums). My friend's Xbox 360 had the "three red lights" and he had to use a heatgun on it and apply some thermal paste to the CPU to alleviate the issue. Thankfully, it worked again.

My Xbox 360 freezes up at as little as 6 hours of gameplay because it overheats. I put a fan on it when I'm playing it for extended periods of time.

My Wii doesn't have any issues -- it seems quite well built, like any Nintendo console. My PS3 also seems very well built. I have been running Folding@Home on it almost nonstop since it launched and the PS3 has neither overheated, failed, or glitched. The PS3 remains cool to the touch, on top of that.

I think yours was just a bad one out of a BUNCH. That happens with ANYTHING. I've seen some posts here of people's broken Wiis -- it certainly doesn't mean "it sucks". It means that yours is defective and outside the norm.

In the quarterly report it was stated that the 60GB PS3 cost $863 to make. Sony is marketing like Microsoft did with the first Xbox; they expect to make money off of games overtime, PlayStation Network purchases (which, by the way, just got Mortal Kombat II that's playable ONLINE!), and BluRay sales for a long, long time (since Sony receives royalties for that technology). Not to mention, all of Sony's HD movies are going to be on BluRay. If people have a BluRay player, they will be more likely to buy the movies.

Trust me, I would if I had the money. >.> Maybe I should sell my PS3 and put the sales proffit towards a hitman...
...But wait... No one would buy it! D: Bummer...
And if you think they're "flying off the shelves" like the Sony reps think they are, then maybe you could explain the 30 PS3's that I saw sitting RIGHT near the entrance at CostCo last Wednesday.
And either way, you can call me a dick for complaining about my PS3, and bashing Sony, but that doesn't exactly change ANYONE'S opinion, if you're just trolling and not stating actual facts. Not to mention the lack of the usage of the letter combination, "yo" in numerous parts of your little bitchfits.

Title of post is a little Miss-leading.. PS3 doesnt suk ... You just bad experience.

this guy is right--you just had a bad experience. Look at some other posts on here, theres one about how the 360 sucks, and same for the Wii, and even criticizing PCs as a whole. Obivously, nothing is perfect and products get jammed up a bit. This is normal, and you can't blame al your problems on the system, gathering everyone up saying how this and that system sucks cuz you were pissed off and couldn't get over it in time.
