I am kinda of guessing but i think its fan is way bigger fan than the 360 also I am pretty sure that made that to help prevent overheating.williamjuly2004

[QUOTE="SPD_WeBmAsTaH"]ya the power supply is the main reason, but there's the graphics card and the blu ray drive cause it slides the discs in itself so it needs durable big hardware, but anyway, the one bad thing about the PS3 is the overheating, i'm afraid to even play for 3 hours in one play session cause the PS3 gets so hot that its frightening that something bad could happen, that's what it used to be at least, i bought the 2 snap-on cooling fans, one snaps on at the back and uses a usb port and the other snaps on to the front also using a usb port, the good thing is that it covers the area where the hot air comes out and man that gets massively hot when you have the PS3 on for about an hour or so, so ya the best thing to do is get both fans and you can play thePS3 for 12 hours or more, i know this cause i did it a couple of times and the PS3 stayed cool for that long and more while i was playing ut3 lol, anyway if you want to protect your expensive PS3, then the snap-on fans are the way to go cause they just suck the hot air out and keep the air flow cool insideAnFangs_Endes

There's only one console that has to worry about over-heating; and the PS3 is sure as **** not it.

Those fans are only placebo's. I can keep mine running for days without having to worry about it.

You ever hear about that test a PS3 was put through, where it was left on in both a freezer, and a sauna; and came out alive from both?

METAL GEAR ROX!!!

MGSwas the reason I became a gamer in the first place!

Halo 3, Mass effect, Biosho.... ups

:p but for real I would say Warhawk, Uncharted, UT3 andABSOLUTELY HEAVENLY SWORD... you know why people say that you can finish that game in a couple of sits? is because is that good that you cant put your controller down, once you have started the game, you cant stop playing it

Japanese like the PS3 because more of them than us have had LCD TV's much longer than us.
