And for the record, I do, and no, there are none present. Not on my LCD tv, monitor, my Dell Axim 51v, or my PSP.

I'll say it once more, a bit slower for you: In console launches all things remain equal. manufacturing difficulties, hardware defects, and the like. Things are just as likely to be blown out of proportion as they are to get swept under the rug. Accept it. deal with it. Or don't buy that shiny new machine in the first 6 months of its life.
are u? You seem to be carrying the 'protect the home base flag' very well.m0dus said:Well, the dead-pixel justification got someone a raise somewhere :lol
acousticvan said:The psp screen doesn't give me the red ring of dead.
If you keep saying dead pixels are decfects then there is no point in the arguement because you keep bringing in "fiction".
m0dus said::lol whatever bud. We'll conveniently ingore my point regarding the 90-day warranty on every other sony product. OR the other points you've convieniently ignored / omitted! High five!
snatches said:this doesn't stop the fast that you're original statement is non-sensical. Saying that a $60 warranty that you are not forced to buy needs to be factored into a 360 purchase and only a 360 purchase is a ridiculous one. that is how this whole discussion began. if you are going to buy a game machine at launch: buyer beware. the psx, ps2, and 360 have taught us that lesson.
acousticvan said:You have to buy it because of the high failure rate.
m0dus said:Reading FTW?
Your mistake is, you seem to think this is an anti-sony rant. or a pro-microsoft rant. no, this is a "face the facts" rant: You buy a launch system, (and I don't care which one you're getting) you are TAKING a risk. It is not a "hidden" risk or a "hidden" cost. It is also not limited to ONE hardware manufacturer or the other, it is the reality of our little industry. If you want to continue this defense-force bullshit, I'm more than happy to bow out of the conversation.
snatches said:so despite the high failure rate of psx and ps2 you won't be buying the warranty on the ps3? and you are getting it at launch? if not explain your reasoning please.
You notice the edits too huh?acousticvan said:The fact of the matter is PStwo-slims have 1 year warranty.
And the fact of the matter is you keep editing your posts. Can you just make up your mind before posting?

Speevy said:I've heard the failure rate of the PS2 can be as high as 95% in certain instanceslike you when you pitch it from a moving car
Exactly. You want to be first on the block, you take everything that comes with it- be it manufacturing processes, build issues, or dead pixels.m0dus said:As I said before--if you're reading into this as a fanboy argument, you've missed the point: Early adoptors are taking a risk. There's no two which ways about it. If you are trying to turn it into some kind of system-wars bullshit, you're an idiot.

You're right, X360 games have a hard time running at 30fps while PS3 games runs at 60fps and 1080p.

There was only one game I felt had a framerate problem, and it was on PS3.acousticvan said:You're right, X360 games have a hard time running at 30fps while PS3 games runs at 60fps and 1080p.

What is the average difference between the Xbox and PS2 version of any given Activision game?
I figured that was the case, but I wasn't going to actually read all seven pages just to be sure.snatches said:I was joking as per the rather harsh derailing of this thread.
