I don't even know why you bothered trying to justify why it was on the floor to begin with.

Because ppl are so predictable.

I'm sure I wouldve gotten replies like "omg, no wonder your console dies. its all dusty and you have it on the floor!". Therefore I explained the reason its on the ground.

People wouldn't have even thought of saying that your 360 dies until after you said the comment about it dying, which was where you mentioned it was on the floor. still not sure the point of mentioning in the thread. x.o

I have mentioned it before in other posts where I was complaining about the 360 hardware.

This one will do for that last request...

It is the TRUTH that my 360 overheats when I put it in the cabinet. Therefore I have to put it on the floor.

It is FACT that I bought the wired charger because I got sick of having to swap AA Batteries every few days on the controller.

Your 360 must be faulty then as I have never ever had a 360 overheat for any reason, out of all my friends that own 360's (about 50) only about 3 of those got RROD, and putting it on carpet is FAR more damaging for a console than on a side or in a cabinet...

 

That's weird as I play on my 360 every day without fail and my batteries last on average two weeks, I bought a battery pack for £5, hardly a lot of money is it lol,

 

Your just finding CRAP to make arguements, you just make yourself look very sad....



1. I dont care about your friends 360s. I'm giving my opinion on what Ive experienced with MY 360.

2. Batteries never last 2 weeks if I'm actually playing 360.

Stop making garbage threads in the Microsoft forum



 



How about thinking things through before you post. 

Having a battery pack is actually a very good feature that for some reason many Sony fanboys ignore.  Advantages of battery packs include the ability to simply change to another pack when your batteries get low, you have the choice to use standard AA rechargable batteries (or indeed normal batteries), you can charge batteries while the controller is still being used in games.  All my consoles are over 6' from where I game so using charge leads is both annoying and impratical, for this reason alone the default method of having a controller on the PS3 that cannot be charged unless the console is plugged in and turned on is annoying but you don't see me crying at every opportunity about it.  I actually bought a second controller for my PS3 mainly so I could always keep one charged while I game and then swap when it runs out.  How is this an advantage, seriously?

Second fact is if your 360 overheats in your home entertainment cabinet then I would suggest changing your cabinet.  I know of nobody in my friends list or indeed real life friends who have ever had such an issue.  If it in actual fact overheats your 360 then it's also damaging your PS3 and any other heat sensitive device in there too which is another reason to change it.


For other posters benefit, just a few quotes from this gentlemans posting history which might I point out he invited me to look through:

"To be honest, if you dont ALREADY have a 360... I dont think there's any reason to get one. You missed the GeoW 1 and 2 boat, or purposely missed it because they didnt interest you.

IMO Gears of War is the only must have on 360. "

From xbox disadvantages thread:
"terrible customer service btw from xbox"

"FAULTY HARDWARE ie. RED RING OF DEATH"

"On Ps3 you can use ANY bluetooth headset. So I can use the one I already have for my phone, on Ps3.

On Xbox, you have to use the damn microsoft headset which costs a lot more money."


Other quotes


"360 (much like Ps3) is an expensive investment.

You have to pay $50 to play online, EVERY YEAR. Then another $100 if you want Wireless connection."

 

"Playstation 3. Way more variety and a brighter future.

360 just has shooting games. Blah. Ps3 has shooting games, action, adventure, platformers, racing, etc..."

"Well Halo/FPS fans... now that the best FPS is on the Ps3... How do you feel? Resentful? Jealous? or are you simply in denial?

 

Do you Halo fans have any desire to play KillZone2? I dont know how you can be a fan of video games and not want to play it, though I'm sure most of you will claim you don't want to out of sheer denial."


"Expansion packs are all I have to look forward to on 360? Thank god I bought a Ps3 then.

Expansions for games that I've already played and become bored of. ugh. Aren't there any exclusive original games, or atleast true sequels coming out for 360 this year? "

 

My Favourites:

 

"Yes I own both games and a 360. My copy of Gears 2 is a "back up", which explains why I never play it online."

I'm sure you know how to manually dump you own games of course, better start google up and find out how quickly hadn't you...

"I got a one day ban for saying that the Wii is geared towards a younger audience... how is Jeronimo not banned permanantly when all he does is start flame wars???"

Seems you didn't learn from that ban in the slightest.

"I have had far too many problems with my Xbox 360.

RROD, twice
Games Freezing
"Game is scratched, please wipe disc with cloth and restart" many many times in the middle of a game!!

I probably will not buy another MS console until a few years after release, and only if it has a good reputation for not having faulty hardware "

Amazing how you decided to void the warranty on your special 360 given all the problems you've had with it.  Next time you want to try spreading your lies as fact you may want to look into your own posting history and try to remember the lies you stated before.  The funny thing about a liar is how they get tied up in knots eventually and it all falls to pieces much to their horror.  By the way unless you lied in another post then we know your 360 is only 2 years old so it's still had warranty cover for RROD and E74 until you opened it.

What I would add is by looking through the first 15 or so pages of his history there is very little at all in the way of balanced unbiased viewpoints, the only praise he had ever given up until then was for Gears Of War and Crackdown (which he seems to not like anymore as the 360 only has Gears supposedly). 

I call you the fanboy that you are not because you like the PS3, it's because you cannot have the most basic of civilized discussions on here without being negative regarding other consoles.  Not ONCE have you ever gone into the negatives regarding the PS3.

I made a thread about a week ago saying I might sell my 360 and ppl were jumping all over me. I thought about it and decided to keep the 360.

1. I wont get enough money back if I sell it

2. Since I have a special 360 that has a voided warranty, I will play multiplats on it since I get the games basically for free.

FNR4, Tekken 6, Assassins Creed 2 will be getting play on the 360.

You should be banned for being a blatant fanboy, or for pirating games, or for a healthy combination of both.
