    Keyword "less likely," not impossible lol. My ? had two red lights when I turned it on and I hadn't even been playing it. It was a false alarm though.

    the original 60 gb PS3's had a little YLOD problem it was prolly only around 4% of them after a few years


    The original 40 gb had BD drive problems, the drive would die after like 1.5 years it wasnt that widespread though. It happened to my 40 gb

    Can't complain, I had it for 3 years and used it daily (games and movies). Sucks though because my fat PS2 that I bought on launch is still hooked up and working ten years later.

    Better than my 360's - lost two within 3 months.

    I don't see why you all don't just get them fixed for free.

    Because of my location. We don't have an authorised MS or Sony dealer here so the cost of shipping them back to the US (where they were bought) and back here is on us and that can run over the cost of buying a new one. Prefer to just get a brand new one from a local shop. Besides shipping, we also have to pay customs duties, so everything is like double the cost you guys pay.
