Metal Gear Online receives new game mode
EA releases Dead Space boxart -- best yet?
Regular shipments of DualShock 3 incoming, says Sony UKSony Computer Entertainment Europe has denied allegations claiming that the new 40GB PlayStation 3 model carries a 40% failure rate, as recently reported on a Dutch website.
Speaking in an official statement today, SCEE President David Reeves commented, “We are very proud of the quality and reliability of PLAYSTATION 3 and are disappointed that such extremely sloppy journalism has resulted in this totally inaccurate story.”
“Since launching the 40GB PS3, we have experienced a fantastic jump in sales and the failure rates have remained at the very low level that we not only strive for, but have been achieving since the launch of PS3.”
The 40GB PS3 launched across Europe on October 10, with the model later arriving in North America on November 2.

Of course its horse$hit.. the PS3 is brilliant and ive never experienced ANY problems with my launch console. I wish the same could be said about the 360 .. 2 years later and models are still breaking down in extremely high numbers.
Hope not - that would be a disaster at this stage.
I would be totaly surprised if this was true. I've never seen a Sony console having problems of any kind. As for the XBox, we all are familiar with the "Red Ring of Death". There's one reason why the hardware is expensive...
I no nobody that owns a 40 gig, So I cannot ask freinds or strangers.
any link to that dutch report? First time I've heard about it. I wonder if it's tweakers.net, they are very anti-sony.
ok found the link at Kotaku and it seems that dutch site has removed the lying article. Anyway, it was normally at http://gamed.nl/view/33819
Trust me if it were real...there are bigger Sony hater than the "Dutch" what would have been all over this....
does anyone believe the dutch?we all know the ps3 is the best next gen console and owns the x*ox 360 and the w*i (there swear words to me :P)im glad i bought the ps3 and psp they beat every console owt there...PS3 and PSP are the best consoles!
psn id: gingo... obviously just some more fanboy ramblings that have plagued the ps3 since launch
ms was 30 and they moved it exactly10% thats weird isnt it
Well,there was one post on the forums where the guy said the new 40gbs were being returned 5/10.But that was probably just a bad batch.Kinda $uck$ cuz that guy really got flamed.
Most likely an 360 fan trying to spread rumers to prevent the rise of the ps3.
I think it has something to do with the updates. A friend of mine got a 40gb the other day. When installing the updates, it got stuck at 52%. Then it said to call a customer serivce rep. The only answer I found was to keep at it. Finally it worked. That was scary.
everyones always trying to hinder the good guys - sony. i paid $999 for a very high quality peice of equipment, had it since may and not a single problem. the 40gb console really isnt very different - the mechanics are all the same, why would there be a high failure rate? its just the usual idiots throwing around the "sony fanboy" comments. get bent
