My brother had no intentions of buying the 360 on first release, for this very reason(I am a PS2 person, he has xbox.) We simply assumed there would be issues with it and would just wait until they were taken care of.
PS2 had optical drive issues, but if I recall most of those where in the Japanese release, I could be wrong however. I got mine fairly early in the release and it still works perfectly, and I have not treated it nicely at all.
As someone mentioned before, this is definitely giving Sony and Nintendo plenty of laughs, but I hope it is getting them to make sure their products are tip top.
