Sony Computer Entertainment Europe can categorically deny that there
is a 40% failure rate on the newly release 40GB PLAYSTATION3 as has
been reported on a Dutch website. Having launched in October, the
40GB PLAYSTATION3 has encountered the same industry leading, very
low failure rates, comparable to the low level failure rates of the
60GB PLAYSTATION3.
“We are very proud of the quality and reliability of PLAYSTATION3
and are disappointed that such extremely sloppy journalism has
resulted in this totally inaccurate story,” said David Reeves,
President, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. “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.” |
