We get enough of them without doing anything wrong, so a few teething problems with the 360 aren't really that big a deal.

    Besides, if there is a problem, Microsoft replace your system within about a week. A pretty good service if you ask me. If something like this happened to the PS3, nobody would hound Sony the way Microsoft have been. It'd be "It's okay, PS3 is t3h r0x0rz!!!1!!1"
    Rofl! Good points

    And I'd like to see the eveidence aswell, my uncle hasn't had his recalled yet? and like Bear said, theres only going to be a fault ion the console because of the handle cared to it. I very much doubt microsoft would hype up a new revolution console and then go through the hassel of tacking them back in. Also, Ebay would have notified users to sell or not, yet that hasn't happened.

    Swinging it around was (of course) a bit of an exaggeration. You're not supposed to move it at all when it's on, and it must be in one of the two positions that the manual says, if you put it like this, I've no sympathy:



    The thing is, there have been many more problems with the PS2, but nobody makes a big deal about it. Of their 100million PS2's sold, it wouldn't surprise me if a fifth were sold because of the need to replace consoles. Microsoft have been brilliant in replacing faulty consoles, and all this anti-Microsoft rubbish is annoying.
