post-warranty RROD?

or did you treat yourself to one of the newer ones so you could actually hear your games over the sounds of the fans?

my oldie sounds like an aircraft taking off. good thing i play with headphones on although that was already a requirement so the kids don't wake up to the sounds of GTA V lol.

First one got the rrod sent it way got it replaced and sent back then it got it again. And the wife made me but a second so that she didn't have to hear me whine about it. So then we had two one for her one for me so that we could use gta 4 as marriage counselling. She liked trying to kill me. Then last year I had enough points on our credit card to get a gift certificate and I got a 3rd so we had one for each tv instead of buying dvdplayers for each. And this way my niece could also play along with us if she chose. We had the family plan for live which I miss terribly. But the day care kids use my original and I use the large hd new system for most my gaming. Love gta v but not fond of the online system at the moment well some of it. You should add me my gamer tag is also lockrookie

i haven't bothered playing it online yet. Not sure if I will to be honest. After my buddies and I all got too busy for Halo online I've sorta lost the interest. I've also never played a game with such an enthralling story. It's funny I've played most of the Halo series online yet I've never played any single player.

Ps my fans are not loud at all the older ones seem to run better than my newer one tho

I have also been thinking of buying one or the other and I am thinking of going with the xbox because of all the other stuff it offers beside just a game.

i picked up an Xbox one in november.
Been having fun with it , voice control works fairly well , system has some neat features . Very quiet. love the new controller
At the end of the day I use it to play games , Seems to do exactly that. lol .

Would like to also get a PS4 at some point.

Each system tends to get a few exclusives every year that are definitely worth playing.

I have always had both systems, I choose to buy the xbox one first this time around , because there was just something about it that peaked my interest more then the PS4..

again , once you are playing a game (and that game is fun) none of the other details seem to matter

just IMO

I play with a good group of guys gta v online is way different than any online play. Even if rockstar fubared it in the start we just hang out and do stupid stuff.

I'm torn as to which system to buy. I do know that I will be waiting at least until the spring before I purchase either. I had bought my Xbox 360 at launch, and I got the red ring of death. Five times!! I kid you not! It got to a point where I knew Xbox customer service number by heart and I was telling the rep what steps I needed to do in order to send my unit out for "repairs". I was thrilled the first couple if times when they gave me "new" units but even that hot tedious after the third time having the same RROD issue. When my fifth unit failed, they said that I would have to pay for the repairs. That's when I bought my PS3. I def like the Xbox controller more and xbox's online system makes ps network look like an afterthought. PSN just isn't very gamer friendly IMO and I'm no hardcore gamer by any means. I know you pay to play online with Xbox but I'm ok with that. Heck, even the first gen PS3 had their share of hardware problems right?
So I'm very much on the fence as to which system to buy. But I got until spring to figure it out
