Actually, right before my Gamecube exploded it stareted shaking violently. I would say that's a pretty good indicator.

:lol: Kinda funny. But anyways at least they give you a warranty. What would **** is to buy a 360 and after the "usual" 3 month warranty it breaks.

Actually most video games have some type of indicator if the hardware is broken. The difference is that it doesn't happen virtually ever on the other systems so no one knows what they are.

Disc Read Error??? SAGE_OF_FIRE

PS2 failures are a myth created by MS and Lemmings. They never happenned but if they did they were exaggerated and Sony looked after all their owners like a benevolent grandfather.

What's with the sarcasm...there hasn't been an RROD thread for a whole three or four seconds. That's practically a lifetime!

Hmmm...

I seem to remember my ps2's having "fail-warnings".

Sounded something like this: "Click-click-click-click...whirrrrrrrrrrrrr....click-click-click-click...."

It's awesome fun :).

I had a dream once that my Wii broke, and that it indicated it by having the LED glow red instead of blue!
