I also have had to replace my original PS2 slim, although I was not the original owner so I really don't know if I can fault the hardware. Microsoft definitely deserved some criticism for a high failure rate for the 360's, but the reality is it is extremely overblown by PS3 fanboys.[/citation]
I don't think its EXTREMELY overblown but maybe a bit. I am personally on my 4th 360 (about to buy the Reach one though) due to hardware failures. My best friend just lost another, this one to disc read errors on every disc, to make it his 4th one down. I'll be giving him my old one though when I buy the Halo one.
