Are Consoles built to break

i was playing Uncharted 2 and my ps3 went to hell, maybe the game was too much awesome for the system to take. I lost my 360 three time and now my ps3. I'm soo pissed...my pc is on day and night and it outlasted both combined. I'm out...not going to even bother with both systems...i'm gonna buy both systems for cheap at the end of this gen and play any epic games i missed, that is the only option left for me...unless some build a capable emulator for both systems. Hope sony and ms burn in hell.

Yes, like every other piece of tech on the market.

No but they are build to be cheap, constantly trying to save pennies here and there.

I wouldn't be surprised if they had an acceptable failure rate.

It was most likely your PS3 died because it became sad and depressed on the fact you kept buying new Xbox 360's after they died. It wants to be replaced.

Oh, I thought they were built to play games on it.... :(

Everything can break.OreoMilkshake

Escalators can't break. They turn into stairs. Then the stairs can break. You are wrong. :P

No, they are not built to break. They are built to play games.

Everything can break. Take care of your stuff.OreoMilkshake

it's not a matter of 'taking care of your stuff'
i've had every system since the nes generation,
and i've only replaced my ps2 (twice),
my x-box(once)
my x-box 360(once)
and surprisngly my brick NDS(once, but not really, i just bought a lite after it broke)

systems just break,
it's technology's downfall,
sometimes there is no avoidable reason.

It's called planned obsolescence. Ipod is a prime example.

So in short yes.

it depends. my ps3 is definitely collecting dust inside since it's in a very open space. and since i cant open it to clean it i ncase of a YLOD, i dunno. but if you're patient enough you can put the ps3 back to its box after playing so that dust wont accumulate, and always take care of it.

i did that with my very first console which is a Sega Mega Drive and it still works today. my original controllers do not work now due to years of gameplay (had it in 1992 when i was 3, and played with it for 6 years then i had a ps1). so yea. to tihnk of it, it's the only gaming system i really took care of. i always put it in its box after i palyed with it, always vacuumed the inside, and used compressed air, used a solvent to clean the exterior so that the logos and colours will not fade, etc. when i was playing earlier Sonic games since they didnt have save data before i had to use a fan to cool the Mega Drive down. so on and so forth.

now it's just the sentimental value of it.

This gen my 360 got RROD twice, my Wii broke yesterday and for some reason, my PS3 hasn't broke yet...

For the most part, yes.

yeah because you want them all for less than 300 dollars. Xbox360 hasnt even a fan on the CPU and GPU just a heatsink. At least i have the choice to build something that will work.

Try storing it in a cool place after you're done with it and unplug the cables to the system if you didn't do this.

Everything is made to break someday. Do you think a company would sell you a product that would never fail? How could it sell you a newer version of the product?wizardwd

Exactly. Everything dies and/or breaks eventually.
