That's because in this case, the user is the one who caused it by using vicks vaporub on air humidifier. There's even picture of the humidifier suffering from the same white stuff.

Can't let facts get in the way of a persecution complex now, geeze.

I'm not sure what the Xboxone story is, but the PS4 is not leaking anything.

I'm surprised so many people don't know about putting vicks or menthol in a humidifier...
Lol ok, and we know for a fact that the users of the xboxs weren't doing something similar? Maybe they spilled something? I'm just saying the first two pages are a stark contrast. Don't get me wrong I just find the biased on forums funny these days. I'm biased myself I can't help, but have some loyalty towards sony, but lets wait and see on some of this stuff.
There's a difference between what if and a guy confirming something. What if those xboxes got visited by aliens and they left their goo.

I'm not here for any bias. I think fanboyism is silly as fuck. I rather see gamers act like consumers.Lol ok, and we know for a fact that the users of the xboxs weren't doing something similar?

edit- btw around 06-07 it was the complete opposite when anything negative came out about Sony it was devastating, and anything negative on 360 it was spun.

You seem needlessly defensive imo.
Ok I get that, but there was nothing concrete in any thread. Immediately on the first xbone page people were claiming a disaster of massive proportions.
The difference is the vicks vapor rub, you can't really blame Sony for the vicks vapor rub, unless all PS4s come with vicks vapor rub.

Next next gen killer app?
So your problem should be with individual users, not making judgement calls on the whole forum.

I was soooo tempted. I almost gave in, but I resisted the urge to buy a launch console. I see I made the right choice.
Launch buyers = unpaid beta testers
Even worse, you pay them.

Edit: Oh, it's vapor rub. lol!
Still I'm weary. The PS3 I bought 5 months after launch didn't YLOD until just after the warantee was up.
And with out people prepared to buy at launch, none of these products would ever get off the ground ...... they would fail right out the gate if everyone was as gutless as you.
From those who ever bought any console at launch, your welcome.
in the XB1 thread we had reason to believe it was failed capacitors/heatpipes - oozy/oily residue etc.
in this thread we know he was using a humidifier, he rubbed it off easily which means it's a small deposit and the location as well as nature of the deposits means it's very unlikely to be an issue with the hardware
use your head
Or, they could simply release products that worked properly at launch so it wouldn't be an actor of valor to buy in? Sort of how Nintendo and Apple still manage to do.
Is it really next gen if our consoles can't even handle a little vapor rub?
Needs to be requoted.Have a little bit of it on my PS4 as well:
most likely residue from washing during assembly.
lmao @ people saying it's from vick's vaperub in humidifiers (or even that using it in humidifiers is a bad thing)...cmon guys.
So nothing made by Apple or Nintendo ever fails? .......... lol.
Mass produced anything has an inherent failure rate, get with the real world bub.
All I know is that I've never had a Nintendo or Apple product fail on me. I've had two Sony 3D displays go bad and we all know about the 360 and PS3 debacles.
