Xbox 360 Failure Rate? Do the Math
>> From gamepolitics.com:
[QUOTE]
Now that Microsoft has done the right thing about the Xbox 360's rampant hardware problems, one key question remains:
What is the failure rate for the system? MS won't say.
Now, math is not especially GP's strong suit, but if each repair costs MS $100, that translates to a staggering failure rate of 86%.
At $200, the failure rate is 43%. At $300 it's 29%. At $400, it's 22%
There is a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff we can't know here. But, based on the numbers, a failure rate between 29% and 43% would not be unreasonable. So maybe those 33% reports aren't so far off the mark, after all.
