Studies show the 360 without taking into account RROD (the majority of 360 failures), the 360 still fails more than PS3s (all failures combined). Note that Microsoft extended warranty does not cover the other hardware failures. So just like Sony 1 year warranty.

It's ironic considering the PS3 is a far more complex than the 360.

BBC Watchdog has been heavily criticized for their reporting by the gaming media and the Microsoft connection. Times have changed!

The BBC Defend Shoddy Playstation 3 Watchdog Report

"The Watchdog report was quite pathetic, full of half-truths, outright lies and unfair accusations. Quite why the BBC is doing this is unclear. I'm all for giving Sony a hard time when it's deserved, but this appears to be, quite simply, a baseless and sustained attack on an issue that has not affected as many people as the BBC is claiming. I simply don't understand what the makers of Watchdog, or the corporation backing them up, is trying to achieve with this ham-fisted little campaign. "

This reportage was done by Iain Lee, a freelance journalist who has been employed by Microsoft. In this article for MSN’s tech-site, Iain discusses the console wars. Make of it what you will.

Some of his past comments:

“You have to feel sorry for everyone that plumped for the PS3 over the 360.”

“the 360 came out and is as close to perfect as you can get.”

“But even the biggest Playstation fan has to admit that the 360 is just great.”

“one console offers a sublime, beautiful, wondrous, joyful online experience, while the other is guff. I’ll leave it to you to try and work out which is which.”

“Look, I’m not saying I’m never going to play PS3 again, all I’m saying is it’s going to take something pretty special to get me to try and find the controllers and start up the thing.”

IMO pure comedy! LOL
