It\'d be interesting to know how long it took the original PS to get to 40 million, for comparisons sake.

I believe the PS2 got to 30 million something like 5 months sooner than the original PS did.

It\'s easy job for SONY...since half of them will be repeat sales for broken consoles. LOL.

Most "broken consoles" are caused by poor care for the system...

I had the original PS since it came out, it works fine even now.

Had my PS2 since launch, not a single problem.

I really wonder what the people who say their PS2 broke a few months after they bought it actually do to their system.

That\'s probably true, but Sony launch units tend not to last in the long run. The original Playstations launch units tended to be defective as well.

mine has locked up on me once during J & D,  and started skipping on my flawless FFX DVD...

I\'ve only had it for a little over 6 months.

Original PSX from 1995 - works fine even now. I abused that console. Trips in a suitcase, car, borrowed by friends....

Original PS2. Still kicking. Nearly 2 years old now.

That boggles the mind. What really puzzles me is how can any NGC or X-Box game even crack the top twenty in sales with that many PS2s out there? Unless a lot of people bought them only to play DVDs and are not buying a lot of games. Unreal. Nothing can compete with those kinds of numbers.

I don\'t take care of my PS2 at ALL.  Never once cleaned the lense, the whole thing has dust all through it.

Never once a problem.

Hell, my PSX had a lump of sugar with ANTS all through it and it never had a problem.

The beast will never be stopped since it practically owns ALL the japanese support. Both Konami and Capcom have stated many times that the PS2 is their system of choice to develop on. I see the XBOX fans over the TXB forums dissing all the Capcom and Konami major titles (DMC2, ZOE2, Onimusha2) just because they WONT ever come on their system. Suddenly, japanese support has become nothing important to them...lol. Pathetic. Trying to make them selves feel better when the truth deep inside hurts like a bit(h.

As long as Sony holds the major key japanese developers in its grasp, it has nothing to fear.
