Fat PS3 one of the most reliable consoles ever?

[QUOTE="clyde46"][QUOTE="jun_aka_pekto"]

I have a fat PS3 I bought at about the time the Slim became available. It seems okay. No problems so far aside from the slow WiFi G. Speaking of PS2..... Mine still works too:

One of the sexiest consoles ever.tagyhag

Yup and mine still works perfectly since day 1 release, a lot of my friends ones have stopped working though, so I guess I'm just lucky, lets hope it stays that way:(

Not for me. Mine went YLOD.

I have a 80gb since 09 and I had to get my disk drive changed. But I played DVDs and blurays on it so I guess it's my fault.:?

my 60GB died after 4 years and I don't know a single person in real life with a phat model that is still functional. People are now selling the thing for like $3,000 new on Amazon and Ebay. XD

I spilled about half a bottle of coke on my original Xbox and it still worked perfectly.

No, about 3-4 years of getting a PS3 Fat ours started to die.

I got it repaired and it only lasted through the Summer.

PS3 Fat is not that reliable.

I'm positive that's Windows 7charizard1605

It is Windows 7. I have Firefox with GS plus Task Manager and ContaCam free surveillance software. As I recall, I was trying to catch which animal kept taking a poop on my lawn. He He.

Edit:

On second thought.... That's not Task manager at the bottom right. It's just Explorer with a list of photos taken by ContaCam (opened by VLC).

I've heard some fat PS3's (particularly those with full PS2 BC) are ticking time bombs so I doubt it.

The newer models are supposed to be very reliable though.

my 80gig system is working fine now but i had to get it repaired twicereaver-x

After installing Linux I'd have to agree.

My friends Christmas 2006 60GB PS3 has had some issues. One time he had to pull the HDD out and put it back in and he had to send it in to Sony once. My Christmas 2006 Wii is still going strong though.

My 80 gig from 2008 is still going strong.

Bought a PS3 @ launch @ Sony Metreon. I even shook Jack Tretton's hand. Barely used it until last year. My 60gb ended up dying in October. Exact date is in my sig. Depressed I can't play Gundam Extreme VS anymore, especially with the new dlc characters they released recently.

Two of my friends who bought it at launch with me theirs died back in 08. They used it since day one unlike me. Don't know how reliable the later 60gb models are, but the launch models sucked donkey.

Don't think that they are any less reliable than other hardware. But like any hardware there is a failure rate,

But I still have my old 60GB(changed the HDD) with memory card slots :)

Nintendo consoles I've picked up have had plenty of problems in the past. They are easy to fix typically, but let us not live in the illusion that nintendo makes some kind of unbreakable console.Sali217

Mine is still going with no problems. :3

Got it on the week of launch in 2006.

You're kidding right? Have you never heard of the YLOD before? It happens very often on FAT PS3 models.

Proof Nintendo makes the best hardware:

How many PS3 and 360s have survived a bomb?

I had one and died, so no.

And I love Playstation, but ironically, the only consoles that died on me were a PS1, PS2 and PS3.
