Well, my second PS3 dies. I know it's a piece of hardware, but still, a 90 day warranty?! Are you ******* kidding me?! I bought the PS3 because it's obviously the superior console, but I've had 2 break within 17 months. Now I have to pay 161 bucks for a refurbished console that will most likely break within half a year again, and I'll be in the same situation.

The PS3 has all the big exclusives I want, but I might just go back to the 360. I know the PS3 is superior, but at least when my 360 pooped out, they gave me another console with a fresh 3 year warranty, and I didn't have to pay a damn thing.

I had to list 7 games up on amazon just to cover the cost of the repair, and I'm still waiting for the rap to sell so I can actually have the money for Sony to royally **** me. The consumer comes first, my ass!!

So, I can either:

1. get another system that will probably fail, even with pristine care.

2. Sell the refurb and more games to buy a new PS3 with a 2 year warranty and essentially getting rid of all my games

3. Go back to the 360, which WILL break, is inferior IMHO, but they'll give me a good warranty.

So, I'm ****** either way. I'm really enjoying the next gen of tech failure and consumer cannabilism.
