Xbox vs Playstation. Which is sturdier?
Ok, I've seen an original Xbox take a 12 gauge shotgun and surviving on Youtube (not against an AK though). And an Xbox 360, in a car accident, got thrown out of the car seat then got ran over by a vehicle. So this got me curious. Can are Playstations handle that much abuse?
"Can are"... sorry, I'm not much for revise and editing.
Actually, I've never gotten a RRoD. I've had it for a over a year now, and not once have I had a problem with it.
I wasn't looking for a console, I was wondering which was built tougher >_<...

An xbox may be able to withstand a 12 gauge shotgun, but apparently can't withstand normal use. (Red Rings, E74 Error, Open Disk Tray Error, etc.)

I am having trouble believing that an xbox could survive anything like this. If you are looking for consoles, I will point out the best, and worst points of both consoles. Neither console however, is that strong.
Good Things:
Xbox 360. $200 cheaper than PS3. Has most of the good games (Microsoft buys out the producer, playstation has only a few really good games)
PS3: Online gaming is free, and the store has better connection and quicker downloads. Blu ray player inbuilt so it can play blu ray discs(Xbox does not have this). Controllers recharge from the PS3 and do not require batteries.
Bad things:
Xbox 360: Controllers break easily and always drop out ( lose connection). Does no have blu ray. Live costs heaps and everything on the market is a rip off. Controllers run on batteries which cost money.
PS3: Controllers recharging from ps3 means you must be real close to ps3 to play while they charge, or stop playing, $200 more expensive. Not many great games.
I hope these help :P

Dude i'm sorry to say that the vidoes you have seen are most likely faked. If an xbox was thrown out the window of a car the force would have destroyed the hard drive and left the system useless. And if someone shot an xbox with a real 12 gauge shotgun it would have been reduced to tiny scrap pieces
