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.
