That's disappointing news, and will just prolong the ps3 battle, which I see as players in the bigger hi-def DVD issue (for me, anyway). Sure, I'd like to get my 1080 Tiger Woods on, but not yet.
You have to hand it to them for extending the warranty so much. Granted, not for a good reason, but they still did it.

I have to say, this really impressed me. Its not often a company takes responsibility for its products like this. Especially MS. It would seem our girl Jam has begun to turn the company around single-handedly. And what do the threatened powers-that-be do in response? Ship her off to Texas.

One of the things that I constantly chuckle about is the fact that my console came directly out a customers house (he had complained to no end that it was failing constantly). I drove to Yakima to replace it and have been using it for over a year now without a single issue.
