Guess firing up the old fanboy arguments is a good way to hide how much better the Master Chief model looks in the Unreal 3 engine.

Screw this, I bought a PS3 for GTA IV, I'll use my 360 for Gears and Halo. Well, when it's not being repaired.

Indeed, but I assume I'll be playing it for hours on end, and I don't want to get RROD half way through the game. Also, the 360 is so fucking loud that it might be annoying at 2am to have what sounds like a concorde in my bedroom.

I'm gonna be putting a lot of hours in on GTA IV, I need a console without utterly disgraceful reliability to play it on. You really think there is a single 360 on this earth that could handle a 7 hour playing session without burning the house down?

Yes, it can and does all the time for thousands and thousands of people.

People are just retards.

It doesn't sound like a jet either, it's comparably loud to a mid range Dell PC in sound.

Okay, but I'm serious. If I buy a gaming system, it has to be able to take a beating. My wife and me would both use it EXTENSIVELY.

Well ... as long as you leave it on it'll be fine ...

The main cause of RROD is the solder cracking due to thermal stress, thermal stress that is brought on by sudden heat changes, ie turning your 360 on from a cold start.

It will hold up, I played oblivion for atleast 12 hours for each day for 3 days and it didn't break down on me at all.

People over exaggerate how easy it is to get the RROD.

If you have a shred of common sense, as to taking care of a machine, you will not get the RROD. I got mine after leaving it on for 30 something hours (set it to download a demo, forgot about it, went out with a buddy, and didn't get back 'til the next day . . . dumbass thing to do).

No, thats fucking retarded comment, my first rrod one day. Before that, it was standing up on its bottom.. so u had to put discs in from side, and it was 2 feet away from anyway wall/ obstruction. I sent it back, and it rrod within a day.


I would get PS3, free online, though i love xboxlive, all the little kids on mics, in nearly all games(not just halo3).


And yes it is insanely loud, a mid range dell, with atleast 2 fans. Wereas the ps3 u cant hear it what so ever.

Yes, mine can; I've left it going for 72 hours once afk on FFXI. Mine is the god of 360s though.

My computer stays on for weeks at a time. I know next to nothing about next-gen consoles, why can't they stay on for just as long? Is it a heat thing?

rand0m

Did you guys actually read what I told you about RROD?

The General Hardware Failure error could be caused by cold soldering. The added mass of the CSP chips (including the GPU and CPU) resists heat flow that allows proper soldering of the lead-free solders underneath the motherboard. This causes cracking and voids in the solders themselves from prolonged constant temperature changes inside the Xbox 360. Lead-free solders, however, might be the cause of this because, when properly soldered, they take on a dull appearance that professionals take as a cold solder in older methods, thus, leading to confusion. Lead-free solders also require a greater amount of heat to solder properly when compared to older lead/tin solders.

If you leave your 360 on for 'weeks' then the motherboard will stay at a constant temperature, be it hot but still constant.

Repeated turning your 360 on, playing for half an hour then turning it off and allowing it too cool will push your 360 closer to RROD.

So you got a RROD while it was doing absolutely nothing after it finished downloading the demo? That's pretty lame.

Nah thats complete bollocks. I used to think that it only happens to people that dont give their xbox ventulation or whatever but my xbox red ringed and i did NOTHING wrong. I had had it for 15 months and then it just decided to 'die' on me. I'm pretty sure its just luck/will happen to everyone

The fact that I got a new console from microsoft, plugged it in and instantly got RROD seems pretty easy to me. I didn't even have the chance to be a 'retard' about it.

360 has the 3 year warranty now. On top of that an extended warranty isn't a bad idea for a heavy user.

Call of Duty 4 - Better than Halo.

Dark Sector - Just as good as Gears of War.

Tis all good on the PS3. Got a XBox 360 recently Bioshock and Gears of War are the tits, but what the hell is up with Halo 3?! Its actually one of the worst most retarded shooters ever. Master Chief is an utter japs eye. Thank fuck he's dead.

PS3 has 50 gb blu-ray and Xbox has 9 gb DVD.

That the only reason I chose PS3, because I can see that it (might have) more potential as blu-ray has won the high def format and Microsoft has stated it is not currently interested in blu-ray.
