[QUOTE="Queue, post: 115933, member: 3496"] I don't mean to alarm anyone, but as some of you may already know, lots of new PS4 owners are running into hardware issues, some not even being able to boot the system (blue light of death). Well, it turns out that this may be the result of deliberate sabotage by some assembly interns at Foxconn, a Taiwanese contract manufacturer, in protest of poor working conditions. This hasn't been confirmed, but multiple people are reporting extreme manufacturing issues with their PS4s, such as unscrewed hard drives and faulty HDMI outputs. The source seems suspicious, but considering the abnormally high amount of reports about out-of-the-box issues that seem to be plaguing the PS4, this may indeed be true. I haven't received my PS4 pre-order yet, but I'm now considering whether or not to return it upon delivery.
