I own both a PS3 (40 GB) and a Xbox Elite (Resident Evil 120 GB version). I've see around this site on a few threads how some critisize the Xbox to be too loud and the Ps3 much quieter. In my case, my xbox is always quiet even while a disc is playing, but my PS3 sounds tooo loud while playing a game, watching a dvd/blu ray, and even when its sitting on the dashboard a few minutes after i turn it on. this had me thinking. Is my ps3 messed up internally and are people exaggerrating about the xbox's noise? anyone here have the same issue cause i might have a defected ps3 and/or my xbox is perfectly normal

The PS3 needs plenty of ventilation, don't keep it in an enclosed space. When a game is really pushing the hardware, like Uncharted 2, the fans will increase in volume during the more hardware-heavy parts.
