No it was likely accurate, and there is evidence to be had.

I'm not saying Sony would do any better though. It would be best if neither got their hands on it.

Fair point, but using ex employees version of events does not provide unbiased points of view.

 
The XBox2 will have the same bug if Microsoft doesn't stop using the crappy file system that was out-of date years before the X-box released.

I thought I read somewhere that PC players were starting to run into the same MD5 bug. Is that not the case? Is it really only a XB1 issue?

It was a PC issue on older OS'es in a previous version. It was basically fixed and eradicated, but has recently popped up in the latest experimental. It is extremely rare though, and still only seems to affect older file systems. I don't know why people still insist on running XP and fat32. That likely won't be supported in the near future anyway.

Ah... So it is an operating system issue. Didn't realize XB1 was FAT32 based? Isn't it NTFS?

It's a barstardized version of NTFS that was obsolete almost before it even got released. (Literally, this file system was only briefly used in between Windows 98 and Windows 2000.) Originally the Xbox 360 used in-house variant of FATX, then they switched to the pseudo NTFS file system for the XB1. It's been a while since I looked at the specific data on it, but it seems like it was similar to something like a FAT34 system.

Remember when we used to defragment a fat32 based hard drive in the Windows 98 era? Good times... lol
