If Jesus were alive today I'm sure he'd own a PS2.

I would guess it is Xbox.
My friend took an axe to his without sucess. And if is the video i have heard of the Xbox deflect a bullet. But it stops working because the impact of the shot messes up something inside.

PS2 i knew would break first. They used the broken faceplate as an excuse. I bet the Xbox was still working.

On a side note i can't believe I never saw thatepisode of X-Play

Wow, I can't believe that the Gamecube took that much abuse.

I find it odd she only tries to start the ps2 with the front button. And doesn't even keep it pushed in for long enough. It seemed to have survived the first torture the best.

I wonder if after the first test either the Cube or XBox would play a game. Maybe the laser would be misaligned.

I didn't need to see the PS2 tested. All you have to do it pick one  up to tell it is built like shit. When I worked at GAme Stop I had a cocxtumer come in to by his 5th PS2 because all the other ones had broke. I am on my second PS2 and pretty much every one I know is on at least there second.

All you have to do is tap the front button to turn on the PS2.

I always keep it pushed for a second or so.... That's the same way I turn it off.
Well, I actually just switch it off and on on the back.

My PS2 has been knocked over and dropped and hit and fallen with games in it while playing.(Little bro)
Still works and after picking up the PS2 ind standing it back up i was always able to resume my game with no problems at all.

Dan kept his in the smae place more or less for a year and his just stopped woking for no reason.

I thought the XBox would have won, I guess it had the weight disadvantage in the dropping test cos it's a bloody brick!

So, what console out of all of them do people think could take the most?  My money's on a SNES.  And is anyone willing to buy a range of consoles and make their own video to find out? Tongue

I think the Master System 2 would be able to handle the SNES. It's bouncier Wink

I've seen a video of this before.  The winner was the Game Cube.

Handhelds i go with original grey gameboy.

Older systems i have to say Genesis.

Modern i still think Xbox can put up to the most abuse. It hit the ground just right to knock off the faceplate.
