yup. anybody's bricked 'cause of 2.40?
yea i was lucky enough for 2.4 to not brick myne but still ps3 fixed thr issues and it seems like microsoft is sayin its not thr fault
I thought mine was bricked and the wonderfully helpful Sony representative, who btw sounded like she should have been captain of the cheerleading squad, had no clue at all what was wrong with my system and instead just asked me to send it back for $150....then it worked. guess you just need to scare these things a little.
I'm lucky on boths ends. I haven't been rrod in awhile and I've never had a problem with my PS3 ever.
All my friends seem to be loving NXE and my ps3 is fine but i do feel sorry for your friend

2 of my PS3's have broke due to updates....
I download it 2.40 when it was leaked & I didnt get any problems.
And I have the 80gb Limited Edition with everything in it.
I read alot on that problem and it looked like "some" people that had the 40gb & 60gb ps3 were effected by it the most.
SONY said it was like 0.1 % of people that had problems only. (and that was just a minor update) Sony took care of everyone.
But with M$ their is just no excuse with 360's over heating & getting red rings, problems with LIVE not working (every second online counts you paid it!! )
and now this.....M$ been f**king up
These recent XBL problems went on for about what 4 or 5 days and thats only $0.66 for the time we havent been able to connect well. Big fing deal. Im getting sick at the ammount of fanboys on these forums im giving up on this (what could have been) an awesome site just too many fanboys and not enough gamers![]()

Also its not because SOME (not all of you) like the PS3 its because of the consistant attacks on the 360. Both a great get the *expletive deleted* over it and enjoy the games

No matter where you go there will be console wars. I get insanely tired of it as well. What can you do? Nothing obviously.
I like both consoles but I admit that my xbox personally has had alot of hardware issues in the past ( on my second xbox atm ) and general problems. I haven't had a problem with my PS3 yet outside a couple of freezes on games. NXE does make my xbox run a heck of alot faster , or is it all in my mind?
There are many people who are having problems with the NXE update. Hopefully, I don't run into this problem anytime soon in the foreseeable future.
yea not sayin i dont like the 360 but my buddy called and thr like do u have a warrenty? no oh that sux guess ull have to pay to fix it

you have to pay to fix a PS3 when it breaks to but I will admit Hardware failure is more common on the 360 but its not like it happens to every last person that owns a 360

Sony does the same thing or there would be no need for warrenties...
sucks that PS3 repairs cost $50 more than the 360 repair![]()
