never had problems with either one of my DC

Xbox had a bad AV set

Playstation 2 I had since the beginning. Initial load of game would take a little longer than normal and MGS3 skipped a little. So I sent it back to Sony to get a free repair since it was a first run system.

PS2 > Xbox

Ps2's dont overheat if you keep them in a properly ventilated area, and short of having the lens replaced on my by Sony, for free, there have never been any other problems. Razz

Edit: ACK!!! after reading over this post I realized I put "Insulated" where I ment "Ventilated". Sorry, my Dyslexia got the better of me.

I never owned a DC, but everyone I ever talked to said their big problems were the controller ports going out.

Speaking of overheat when the X-box was first released the internal fans would actually short out causing the processor to heat to the point of melting the MB.
