A huge rumor going around is that Foxconn interns sabotaged the production of the PS4.
Foxconn has a history of mistreating its workers and they even used underage workers at one point. A forum over at IGN shows a student that allegedly admitted he was mistreated by Foxconn so they decided to sabotage Fozconn’s products. The PS4 ended up being one of those products.
The student’s post read as:
Since Foxconn are not treating us well, we will not treat the PS4 console well. The PS4 console we assemble can be turned on at best.
Of course it’s hard to verify the validity of all this. If this is true though, it is sad for Sony considering the PS4 is one of the most important products they’ve released in years.
