Thanks michael. I've heard a few things about a couple bad PS3s but the amount I've heard on the 360 is just ridiculous.

yannis you are lucky...but hope nothing happens after the warranty is over.

Either way...I'll see some of you guys online when I get my 360 fixed.

I've been lucky with the second one. Plus they were pretty quick about it once you send it in. Enjoy the PS3

My XBOX 360 died yesterday evening. For the last couple of days it had started to freeze and reboot by itself and i knew that something was wrong.

I will send it for repair today.

Must be heat problems. The PS3 doesn't suffer from heat problem, you should see the heatsink in that beast, it's gigantic. Never seen a bigger one. Later this year the 360 will be updated with a new processor which guzzle less electricity.

Yeah you could always buy one of these...

I bought one, pretty cheap solution, and maybe it is what has saved my 360 so far.
