until you get the red ring! I swear, I've been so against getting one of these things its not even funny but with everyone saying how great they are I decided to break down and buy one. The first one would lock up, overheat and red ring so the guy traded me out for another. This one just did the E74 crap a while ago! I'm sick of this, why can I own a launch day PS3 and have ZERO problems but have 2 dying Xbox 360's in a month? Ok, I'm ranting, it just sucks having 40 games I can't play because Microsoft did a suck ass job building a game system..... shit..... ![[Mad]](mad.gif)

Yeah, no warranty, its modded..... the only reason I would buy one in the first place, for free games. I keep it under my TV on a glass shelf, very open around it and plenty of airflow so its not an environment issue at all.

They remove the DVD drive and reflash it to read burned discs, that's it. I guess this problem is mainly an issue on the units with HDMI output. I did the "fix" I found on line.... I'm now the owner of an Xbox with a stack of pennies taped to the top of the graphics chip. Oh well, at least it works for now. Seriously, if this thing wasn't modded I wouldn't have it but its hard to pass up free games.

I got this from another guy that mods and sells em. He gave me one under warranty already but damn, I'm sick of dealing with problems on this thing! Oh well, I'll spend the money I save on games buying new systems I guess.

I'm trying to find another case and I'm going to install a fan right above the CPU cooler to pull extra air in. I just don't want to hack up the only case I have. No matter what, there are fixes for it, I just hate going through all this crap every single time I want to play a game.

I find it funny how all kinds of people say the 360 is better yet they have to ghetto rig fans and all kinds of crap to them to keep them working... I have my ps3 on a hardwood floor, with dogs that shed all year round( I haven't unpluged my ps3 and cleaned it in 2.5 years )
From a durability stand point ps3 ftw
Online play 360 ftw ( but you do pay for it ![[Wink]](wink.gif) )
Muti use ( DVD / blue ray / HD/ internet ) Tie IMO
Game quality (graphics , lode time , game titles ) 360 ftw
