Xbox also sounds like a jet engine sucking up a bag of wheel bolts.

No idea whats inside it tbh, but it's a hell of a lot quieter. and built in wireless, AT LAST! It's also tiny in comparison.

i see well if the 360 packs in again i shall think about getting one.
also when my 360 packed in i had had it about 18months. my mum phoned up to get it sorted while i was at work and they asked her if i had it longer than 12months (obviously to see if i could get it sorted in warrenty) and she said no cause she didnt realise i had it for so long and they fixed it for free.

I like my ps3 it plays films and tv great and the controller to operate video playback is far easier than xbox as I found out last night.

yeah cant ever say a ps1 or 2 knackered either.
its had some flux and some paste and a hoover out. it was dusty as fuck probably what killed it. my mate who fixed it said it was one of the early 60 gig ones as it has the bigger fan in it or something. crazy stuff.
time to go and watch a film on it though.

Mate I fixed mine lots of times and it just died over and over... give up, I'm afraid you're gonna have to buy another one, or you'll drive yourself mad.
