  1. Re:Now we just need to know on Xbox 360 Failure Rate Is 54.2% · · Score: 1

    The Game Informer survey included this info. From my copy of the magazine: "Perhaps the Wii has suffered fewer hardware failures among our readers due to the fact that it isn't played as often. The majority of Wii owners (41.4%) said they play their Wii less than an hour a day on average, as compared with the Xbox 360 (three to five hours: 40.3%) and PS3 owners (three to five hours: 37%)." A little bit of suspect reasoning there -- 41.4% isn't a majority (I guess they meant plurality) and their "less play time = less failure" theory doesn't hold much water given the PS3 play time being similar to 360 with a much lower failure rate. Still, those are the numbers they provided.
