When you turn on a 360 and its rear fans start to spin, it sounds like a Cessna revving up for takeoff. Then the DVD drive kicks in and the Cessna transforms into a full blown 747.
Jason Cross attempted to silence, or at least quiet down, an Xbox 360 some time ago. Since then, ready-made mods have appeared to help with noise. We're talking about the Talismoon Whisper Fan for the 360, made to spec to replace the 360's stock, noisy dual-fan unit.
Getting into an Xbox 360 isn't easy unless you have the proper tools. Thankfully, a company created unlock kits (for this article, we used the kit known as V2) that perfectly fit the various tabs and screws you have to manipulate to get the 360's case open."
Over the last 25 years, there has been a fair few South Park games, and here GameSpew has ranked them all from best to worst.
We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago. It's their IP they can sell out, of course; it just means the quality of their show has tanked and other products as well. Nevertheless, they put on excellent musicals, but those haven't been sold to a mega corporation.
Game Rant chats with the creator of No More Heroes about who he would like to see play the role of Travis Touchdown in a live-action adaptation.
Actually Ryan Gosling makes a ton of sense.
Edit: If this can be done in a Scott Pilgrim movie kind of way that would be dope.
MY.GAMES new Warface: Clutch 'Secret Lab' season has arrived, takes the action to North Africa whilst adding a new map, weapons and more.
now that is truly sad and embarrassing that any company as HUGE and profitable as Microsoft would charge you $200 or $300 plus for a product that you have to fix yourself
@ Marceles .........LOL LOL "the buggy on Highway 17 and the 360 were having a loudness contest"
I would love to have a mod to quiet down the 360. It's not particularly the fan that bothers me, but the DVD spinning in the tray is loud as hell. I was playing the Orange Box last night and it seemed like the buggy on Highway 17 and the 360 were having a loudness contest. If the 360 was as silent as playing an XBLA game, then I'd definitely have no complaints
get the shotgun, and take it for a walk in the woods....
turn up the music and try to drown the noises out, or headphones work too
Just buy a PS3 you will Love it trust Me
