However, the IGN forums are littered with posts about dead pixels...

Though it seems like some people are being overly picky, crying about a single dead pixel and how it means the unit is 'defective' and so they will return it again and again until they have a completely dead pixel-free unit...

And then a bunch of other people replying saying "I HAVE LIKE 5 DEAD PIXELS AND IT STILL DOESN'T BOTHER ME DURING THE GAMEPLAY CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY!!1"

It's rather amusing... I realize this whole topic is about the dead pixel issue, I'm just pointing out that a majority of the stuff people are talking about on IGN is dead pixels... It's quite a widespread problem it seems!

Well, 1 dead pixel is VERY annoying. 5 makes it even worse and soem people can stand it and others cant. I just couldnt sit there with a little flashing or black/red pixel being there all t he time while I'm playing a game

I have one dead pixel, it doesnt bother me because it mostly disappears during gameplay, I only see it when there a black screen...

Same with my DS. I have a red pixel but once the game starts, it's gone. Gotta take the good with the bad, right?

Dead pixels are almost frequent with LCD screens, be it the DS or the PSP.... so why the thread title "PSP: Dead pixels?"

One can only imagine.

Pwned!

Seriously though, if my screen had only one or two dead pixels, I don't think it would bother me. As long as the dead pixel wasn't like the plague, slowly killing other pixels around it, then I'd be happy.

Oh hey, sorry. The article(s) I was looking at mentioned PSP and you know, hence the title.

I guess I shouldnt post anything good or bad about Sony

Good or bad, You and Sony in the same post usually sparks some kind of speculation... LOL... but you're a cool guy.

I'm even designing a new avatar with Stacy Keibler again...
