360: Jungle Breeze
Unavoidable.. I got the 3 red rings.. I was using the hot towell trick for about a month, and was still playable, but now it just freezes after 3 minutes every time.
I'm going to sell this one (fix it first) and buy a new one..
Some people are saying that the latest update messes up the xbox alot, and causes all that freezing, so I don't know if I should risk it now.. I'm stacked on single player games anyway..
How many consoles have you guys gone through so far? Any advice?
Anyone here who hasn't had any problems.. yet?

Everybody has their opinions of what their pleasant gaming experience is. Every individual experience will vary, some people enjoy multiplayer games, others will enjoy playing the game on their own terms and enjoying the achievements.
Parker you are one example of the Xbox demographics, where fragging people online and having bragging rights with proof to show is fun. Puss3, well I have no idea what part of the PS3 fanboy universe you come from, from the looks of it you don't seem to own one, since all you do is come into each discussion thread and spam your useless thoughts on one line.
Really guys, if you haven't gotten the point by now, well kudos to your lack of common sense

i know there a good points and bad points about both systems, for me the 360 is better which is why i swiftly sold my ps3... sure, its better as a media hub in my opinion, but then i want to play online with friends i can invite at the touch of a button and actually communicate with. for instance, i played cod4 on my mates ps3 last week for a good couple of hours and had a pleasent enough experience with the game... but the fact that he had to leave mid game to invite a few friends to set up a match was a joke, and the whole time we played, we encountered about 8 people with mic's... no joke
if sony sorted out their online then i 'mite' (not might) think about getting one again... but anyone that buys a ps3 because they think that one day its going to get updates and match microsofts service, in my opinion is a fool! il stick with the 360 thanks... rrod and all  "
u can not be serious saying this!!!! it cant match the live service!!! u act like the service live is unreachable to any other company. it is not that serious!!! the psn is only alittle over a year and live is over 6 years old. it should be better!!! i think u forgot that the psn is FREE!!!! let me say that again... it is FREE!!!for u to have to leave mid game to invite a few friends to set up a match is not that serious, plus if you are inviting friends to play your going to start the game over anyway, that is not that big a deal for a FREE service. if u were paying for psn and live, than u would have a great point and should scream at sony. if the psn was better or match live what would u be paying for??? one is free and the other u pay for, which one should be better???? xblive should be better ...u are paying for it!!! it should have a better service... that is what u are paying for. u xboxlive fans should be hoping sony's psn catchs up so ms will make live FREE, ...thats what u should be saying!! when ps3 owners get HOME we will see who is the fool!!! for paying for live. i dont care how good or better live is..i am not paying to play a game online, so i like the fact sony is at lease trying to make the service FREE, so i dont care how bad it is or isnt. as long as i can play online for FREE, i dont care about anything missing from the psn service.
and to talk about a ''potentialy'' great console, the ps3 is a great console. i guess u forgot it has only been out for a little over a year, were the 360 is going on its 3rd. it is just ahead, not better. things are already looking better this year for sony. look at what happen to hd dvd. plus we are getting RFOM:2 this year too, look at the online features for that game and tell me the psn isnt going to catch up!
what happen parker... u use to be cool man...u use to be cool

360: PARK3RFR3SH
lol... jesus christ, i didnt mean to hit a nerve. look at some of my points this way... say you are playing a game with 2 friends and another friend comes online mid game and you want to play... this is how i play 99% of the time online, it is quick and easy and i dont even think about it... 'invite to game' 10 seconds later 'hi mate'.
that is not possible with the ps3 AT THIS TIME... and to be honest, its a joke! the ps2 dabbled in online play and it didnt really take off... thats fair enough, but sony have had that mistake to learn from, plus all the good of the original xbox service and the success of the 360's live so far(A TOTAL OF FIVE YEARS). you would have thought that sony might have thought 'hey, that xbox live service is great, lets tap into that' and they kind of did, but left out all the bits that make it great... its that simple!
and the moaning about xbox costing £40 a year... im glad it is, the thought of it being completely free scares me... i mean, it would be nice if i didnt have to pay, but if it was free there would be even more annoying people to spoil for the people that wanna play in peace, and what would be microsofts incentive to keep up the good work you like your ps3 online experience because its free, im willing to pay for my xbox 360 online experience because its better than the ps3 service.
people seem to think that im just some kind of fanboy when that really isnt the case, i had both consoles at 1 time... liked the ps3 and wanted one for a while, but got it and was disapointed. it is great for media and that kind of thing, and there is no doubt in my mind that it is a better made console than the 360... but it just sat under the TV collecting dust because im not going to play that thing online while ive got a 360 to play... and i dont really get enough time to play that anymore 
i think the 1st year of games were also more memorable on the 360, and like i said, lets not dwell on what the ps3 is GOING TO DO IN THE FUTURE... im saying it doesnt do anything for me now
i dont write on here to offend people or try and get people to agree with me, this bunch of nonsence is just my opinion. sorry if it seems like im going on, i just wanted you to know why i wrote what i wrote... maybe i came accross as a little aggro before, but im still cool... arent i ?

parker.... we have said on this site many times before...if u have a 360 dont get a ps3 yet!!!! your not going to like it. maybe the first year games were more memorable on the 360 because there wasnt another next gen comsole out. the second year games over shadow the ps3's year games thats all. but back to the online, live is better and i understand you not liking psn if your use to the little bits live has over psn, but like i said before its not that serious....if it is that serious.. pay for it. i care less about a player being able to join in mid game, it would be nice if the ps3 could do that but it is not that serious 4 me to pay for it, knowning that the ps3 will beable to do it in the future for FREE!!!

360: I digigram I
I am back, hi.
Not sure if i posted this or not, but i had to get a new 360, last one i'm allowed apparently through gamestop's replacement plan.
Good thing is I got the new core, which is now called 360 arcade. And guess what happened? I got a free upgrade to HDMI. hehe. Too bad I haven't noticed any difference yet.
