Xbox 360 > PS3 for reliability.

Yes in the past PS3> 360, but now currently thats not the case. Now that the slim has come out, it is more reliable that the slim PS3. I own both so I would know.

PSN ID please?

On-topic: I doubt the new 360 has a .4 failure rate....cause the ps3 slim has a .5 failure rate.

No evidence, no credibility.

lol, seriously? Personally never had a single issue with my PS3, the xbox 360 on the other hand is glitchy as hell. I think it's sad that the majority of issues with the Xbox 360 were due to poor design choices. The 360's componenets are in a metal case wrapped in a thick plastic shell with the only ventilation - two 60mm fans, yeah like that wont overheat.

Nothing new, it's been that way for years now. :P

This. Owning both consoles doesn't make you an expert in their overall failure rates, and saying Microsoft's console is more reliable than any other is laughable.

cant say much for Microsoft and reliability :P Windows Vista now that was one tempremetal OS :P same goes for Win98 in the early days.

Sony's no stranger to reliability issues either :P

Anyhow i can say both probably nowadays are probably just as reliable as the other lol.Had a PS2 that died after 6 years and a PS3 that died after 4months lol its just your luck imo.

there is a site anyone can go to and look up a 360 tag and see exactly what achievements have been awarded but i didn't think there was any kind of site like that for trophys.

that does not seem like a thing that sony would know how to set up or want to pay for to upkeep it.

I get it joke thread of the day...

just another blind opinion, no proof no numbers no psn id. this thread is a failure.HailCaesarHail

Overall using the entire console history the PS3 still owns.... Plus you say you own both, did you get a surge of intense energy running through your brain filling you up with knowledge of every breakdown on both consoles when you took it to the check-out? Owning both doesn't mean you know absolutely everything about them, it just means you own both...

Well, you have no link, but since I fixed YLOD with a hairdryer, the PS3 failure rate doesn't really matter xD

Most of my friends with Ps3s got YLOD and of those who rebought a slim about most of them broke.

I had one friend go through 4 Ps3s yet I am on my 360 from 07. I mean alot of people have working launch 360s while I know a few people with working launch ps3s.

Anecdotal evidence passes as sufficient enough these days?

"I own both so I would know."

Making assumptions based on personal experience... hooray!

All the complaints about the 360 since its release say other wise.

The toaster oven that i put my ps3 and 360 discs into is more reliable than all of your ps3 and xbox360s combined

it's opposite day today! hooray :)

Wouldn't that make today Anti-Christmas Day? :o

Always good to see how much I've changed in one year.

So you assume that your an expert on statistics and failure rates because you own one of both consoles. Sounds logical... /sarcasm

The original model of the ps3 had a 10% failure rate while the original white 360 had over a 50% failure rate. I assume that the slim ps3 is even better and obviously the 360 S is a lot better than the white ones.

Probably about the same now, with maybe a slight edge in favor of the ps3.

my og 60 gig is still going strong but i'm on my second 360 so the ps3 wins this battle.

too be fair there have been about 250 more games played on the 360 but still running is still running.
