[quote name='Puffa469']So far 193 people answered the poll, and were at a 66% failure rate.[/QUOTE]
Actually, let me come back to this. The question on this poll displays the % of *people* whose console has broken on them. This is a very interesting number no matter what it is, but it's actually smaller than the more interesting figure: what % of 360 consoles break?
Since one category asks how many people have had at least 2 360s die on them, there's a hidden % of the actual 360 failure rate in there. You'd have to count those consoles twice, or at least once for each console people have gone through.
Lemme demonstrate quickly:
At this moment, 64 people have answered that they have had a 360 break on them twice *or more*. So, at the very least, they account for 128 broken consoles (compared with the currently 76 who have had one die). That's, bare minimum, 204 broken consoles.
So, the conservative estimate for the failure rate of the 360 based on this poll (which, since it's voluntary and limited, isn't particularly reliable - but still interesting) would be 204/271 (the current 207 total voters plus the extra broken console for the 64 who chose option 2), or 75.28%. At the minimum, then, 3 out of every 4 Xbox 360s has broken for people who have answered this thread.
