hey ppl i have the new xbox “S” and i think its pretty bad ass to tell the truth i havent had a problem from it yet not even any heating issues but i will tell you the fan does pull out alot of heat its not really whisper quiet but it is all but silent you barely hear it running unless your tv is down very low but really if you dont have it soon as your current one dies, by the new one.

This Is a great idea in my opinion. Although I thought the PS3 already has this?

i love giving microsoft most of my money no problem. they’re the best tech company. if they want me to sell my kidney to buy their products– it’s done; no problem. i’d do it again… of course i could only technically do it twice since i onl y have 2 kidneys. i’ll give them my money everytime coz it’s definitely worth it.

As I recall, the PS2 slim overheated all the time… it’s too bad people can’t enjoy things, and only parade flaws instead.

I personally think it is a great idea, I just bricked my third xbox 360 through RROD and I’m getting quite annoyed with it to be honest, if Microsoft cannot find a real solution then a premature shut down will be good.

I have never seen this screen on any of my three previous 360’s but I will accept that it can come up on them, my problems must have been slightly different.

Another solution is to not use the console too much and not keep it in a cabinet or something, I know far too many people who spend far too long in their hot stuffy rooms with their 360’s in a confined space.

Finally all you haters of Microsoft, why don’t you try designing a console and see how reliable that is, do you really think Microsoft with their vast wealth and resources would not be able to do better than some normal person from the street? And considering the amount of Warranty Claims they have had to fund since 2005 I think they would have solved the problem if they could.

i went through 2 xboxs before i got an intercooler for 15$ which stopped the problem. are they going to make an intercooler for the new xbox or are they just calling this their permanent fix.

Would you rather turn off your xbox and fight the boss later or have you xbox die and only fight the boss in a month or more

this is the exact same message you get when you over heat the original 360’s. I got it once or twice on my very first 360 because I let the 360 get clogged with dust.

Pretty cool. It would be nice if they put some kind of sleep mode in, I always fall asleep when I’m watching DVDs on it at night.
