Ok here's what you all should do,sell all your playstations and xbox stuff,and save up to buy a real car,so you dont have to spend money on stuff that you will never even get to drive or get to fight or something..

If all of you like to play video games and such,just play it for like 2 hours and take an hour break,my friend plays his xbox non-stop for a hole day,and the only reason why it didnt break,was because it was in front of the air conditioner(the air was on nearly 65),so I think sooner or later it'll burn up..
As for the playstation 3,Its just like the xbox but a different size,weight,and the system of the game is different,I mean the both have warrenty's and they both can be replaced..

You got it all wrong and backwards buddy, the 360 is the one that has horribly loud fans, and gets hot. The PS3 is nice and smooth, and I know this because I have compared both of them while playing COD4. Not to mention, everyone in my family that has a 360 has had to return it at least once. The 360 sounds like the disc is about to fly out, and all those rattling noises that it makes.

Well said.
Althought the Original Xbox's are solid. I've had mine running for days, in all kinds of positions. Still runs solid.

But, leave some room on the sides and don't get it dusty. It's not that hard. They could have made it bigger like the original and had it run cooler, but then it would have been bigger. And these days, Smaller is Better (See: Gameboy Micro).

The new 360's and the Elite have better cooling though.

Guys, this is not a PS3 vs Xbox 360 thread, keep it out of here.
This is simply a thread that Firdbird999 needed help with his Xbox, he did not ask for your opinions one which game system is better.

To be honest, just talk to an employee of MicroSoft, then ask them if you can mail it in, or email them.

Then mail it to them, they might charge you a little or a lot for a new one.

I did this before, for my PS2, but it costed like 90 bucks to get fixed...best of luck to you.

it should be free, my friend kyle called them and it taken them 3 weeks to send a box, and the employee when crazy one the phone telling kyle to shut up it was funny, but if you call them make sure they sand out that box asap because it takin kyle 1 month to have another xbox.

or you can call bill gates and talk to him.

Sony may have screwed you on the TV or whatever but how many people have had the pleasure of dealing with: 1. the blue screen of death or 2. the red ring of death.

That's a real quality company there.

And that's all I have to say about this because I have no intention of starting or carrying on a console war.

Lol didnt mean to call you out specifically, just happened that way, im just ****ed off about the scenario i was put into with sony otherwise i had nothing against them. I was fine with the PS3, i just preffered xbox, but now im avoiding sony tv's and the PS3 like the plague.

Other than that theres not much else that sony makes that you can avoid, Boomboxs perhaps? LOL

Edit: sorry thread jackage firebird....

Dude, that sucks. They are coming out with a Happy Tree Friends game? For 360 only I'm guessing, if so I gotta get a 360!
