Now now. The system turned out more resilient than it's competition to be sure. 360 was hacked and conditioned for pirated software within months. It took the better part of the generation thus far for someone like Hotz to find the weakness in the PS3's code to do something similar.

So really: "piss-poor" compared to what?

Don't get me wrong though. It's a valid point. Variable declarations should be a tad more creative.
