I think the 360 failed for the same reason lots of early/mid 2000s PCs failed. They had issues with chips lifting due to the move away from leaded solder. Over time the formulas improved and we don’t see that as much anymore. At least that’s the way I recall it.
Isn’t the 360’s failure rate due to MS rushing to release it before the PS3?
No, it was entirely Nvidias fault
