    PS3: Like Company, Like Owners

    Taken from another forum i frequent...

    Yes, my friends ps3 broke.

    He came round mine explaining that his PS3 just died for no reason.
    I asked him if he used any buggerd games, dvds, or blu-ray. He said no. I asked him if he dropped it etc. No, no no.

    So I went round his to have a look. He had put black duct tape over the air vents. All of them.

    I said 'why have you put duct tape over the vents?'

    He replys with this:

    'I am really cautious about my ps3. I really look after it. I don't want dust getting inside it so I covered up the holes to stop dust from getting in.

      Errr, I'm pretty sure that's about what he had BEFORE he put the duct tape on

        Reminds me of when a friend of mine got an xbox for the first time. He didnt want dust to get into it so he left it inside the bag. When I went over to play some halo I laughed my but off so bad at him but anways i guess people really dont think.

          Is he sure the PS3 is fried? He should remove all tape and get a warantee replacement claiming it just broke.

          My xbox has a variable speed fan with better heat sinks and thermal compound in it amongst other mods. I have forgotten to turn on the cooling a few times and it never broke it. The xbox would just get real slow and the picture would pixelate until the game froze up. When it was running good though it was never over 95*F.

                    mehh I'll still buy one. Just for the hell of it plus MGS4 (Sorry I love the series except 2 it was okay). But also they got some cool games coming out for PS3 CoD 4, Yes I'm a Killzone fan so Rock #2, I know there is no talk about it yet but the next Ace Combat they better do a freaking amazing job on that one.

                    Xbox 360 yeah they got some solid games. Personally I hate Gears of War. But the Halo series Kicks major . Nothing better then doing shots for kills. Graphic wise to me seems like they took the PS2 chip and upped it a bit. Nothing to me seems graphically (if that is a word) better.

                    Wii I freaking love this system. I've had a lot of drunken fun with this. Just the Wii sports Bowling is great. I love the fact you have to get off the couch to play this.

                      Well I guess you cant call yourself a gamer if you only play one system. To me I love them all but I guess what gets me the most is price. PS3 a bit expensive and yes MG4 is coming out for it but I hear its coming for 360 as well. I love the ACE Combat Series but my cousin told me that he was playing the demo on his 360, so yet again another strike for me not to buy it. As far as graphic wise GOW looks pretty sweet as so does Fight Night. The halo 3 Beta was alright, nothing super great but really fun glameplay as always and as far as the Wii im really looking forward on picking it up sinces you can download old nintendo games on it and it already has some cool games for it like Metal Slug and some other I cant think of but I know there there.

                        ALL 360 MGS4 RUMORS WERE DEBUNKED BY KONAMI DUDE. NO 360 MGS4! OKAY!?!?

                        (sorry I'm just annoyed at all the speculation, nearly every interview I've seen has said "ps3 exclusive", why don't people get the point?)

                        But I agree that you need to at least play all 3 consoles a few times in order to really be able to say anything as a gamer.

                          i hope to be able to get a ps3 in a year or so...no super rush. don't have a lot of gaming time right now anyways.

                          but sales sure did shoot up when the dropped the price.

                          funny song though

                            Its coming to 360, they said that they wanted to sell the game well...can't really do that with the PS3
