Will Sony Win the Console Wars Again?  by Craig D at 12:51

XBoxPlaystationNintendo
Well, GameDaily seem to think so, their reasons being; The Playstation brand, Microsoft has squandered its lead, Japan is ripe for the taking, blu-ray and free on-line.

Worth a read but they didn't mention what annoys me most about the Xbox 360, it's noisy and it crashes a lot. If the Playstation 3 is more stable and less of a whiny biatch then it's undoubted quality games line-up will see it do very well indeed, despite Sony's best attempt to completely ruin their own reputation over the last six months. I do so love console wars speculation!

Hmm, try contacting MS about it Craig. The 360 I have now is REALLY quiet. This is my 3rd 360 as well

Sounds like you hate the 360, but like a noob you probably keep it upright when its suppose to be on its side like a normal console, then you have no problem... but then again it should of been made more clear by microsoft so I paritally agree.. on the other hand it is hardly loud to my ears when your tv is running (which it normally is when you have the 360 running)

no I don't have it upright and it's way too noisy and whiny + unstable. A great combination

ig88, it's actually made to be kept upright. Putting it flat makes it over heat faster as it blocks most of the air flow.

TBH, I have no doubt in my mind that PS3 will be the better hardware. I just wish it wasn't so overly pricey.

I have it upright and it is fairly quite. Apart from the DVD drive (Hitachi) No overheating issues either, my first and only box.

Sony are failing! They even had to shut down Lik-Sang they B@5t@rd5
