This isn't news, this is a random fact, with one source cited-- in other words a claim. You pretty much shortened the linked article down by a tiny bit, and posted this...
When we talk about things like TV's, and phone's... We notice if it "works" or "doesn't work"... With games, even non-digital the line gets blurred... Things begin to either "Be really fun" or "suck". Not to mention the fact that many games (I'll cite the classic Pokemon red&blue's MissingNo. glitch, yeah you know what I'm talking about... this is/.) are sought after for these defects, defects can, and have become "bells and whistles"... So it further becomes blurred what is a feature, and what is a careless mistake... Modern Video games aren't your everyday dishwasher- they don't leak(Not positive if you guys have your rigs watercooled though), and unlike pokemon episodes, they (normally) warn you before the seizure starts... So to/. and to all, what is a "broken game" (Definitions, and then examples, rather than the reverse preferably.) Also, what of the twelve year olds on xbox live that can't seem to kill you, because you're a "hacker" and they're going to tell their mommy about how you ruined Halo3 for them, wont issues like this come up?
