2 of my friends live in the same apartment and when they left out of town for xmas holiday, I found their apartment flooded. The maintainance staff told me that due to extreme cold weather, the water pipe froze and lead the water to burst out of both of my friend's bathroom. Thankfully, there was no damage at all to their room. The water just flooded the first floor where the kitchen was, which had nothing. The only damage my friends' rooms get was humidity. It had become very humid and cold inside... We turned on the heater and dehumidifier and so on to get the apartment back to normal.

Here goes the drama: when my friend J, tried to turn on his xbox 360, our beloved RROD (red ring of death) made its appearance. Nice. He waited one more day to turn it on again, same RROD. Cute. Now, when the apartment is all good and normal, it is still RROD... good job failbox, for not being able to withstand that kind of disastrous environment...

My friend R, came back home several days after J and turned on his PS3... Well... Like you can guess, it is still working... fine, and nicely, no problem at all... BORINGGGG!!! PS3 doesn't seem to be affected by the apartment's condition. Seems like it can withstand a very humid environment and below zero temperature just fine... Hmm, maybe PS3 will be the official gaming and entertainment system for NASA or MARINE or whatever... I mean, it is tough.

This is a real life situation, about 2 gaming consoles, accidentally put in a harsh environment. Apparently the best survived, the worst, died. Well, that's nothing less than what a gaming console with a very high failure rate can offer. What a beautiful red ring of light... We love you failbox, just to see you try and fail.
