Does the PS3 have the same problem as ****

The video on my Xbox 360 recently crapped out on me. I guess I can't be surprised as in just about every 360 discussion I have been a part of, people mention how they are on their second or third Xbox.

What I want to know is if the same thing happens with the PS3. Are all of you on your second or third PS3? I don't think its fair to spend hundreds of dollars on something you already purchased, and if the PS3 has such a problem I don't think I will risk buying it.

This is in no way meant to lead to a discussion about Xbox 360. Such a thing is against forum rules and I don't think it should be mentioned in any replies. I only mentioned it to explain the problem with the console so that I can get some info on if the same problem exists with the PS3.

Alot of the 60gig consoles seem to be dying as of late... haven't heard much about the new ones though in terms of failing... Its a pretty safe bet though.. i don't think the Death rate of the PS3 is above 1% yet...americahellyeah

alot of the 40gbs that are around a year old, have had bluray drive failures (like mine) but luckily i got a replacement 3days later.

im not sure how bad the general failure rate is but i think its higher than alot of people think.
