<![CDATA[xbox issues]]>I bought the MW2 bundle here a couple days ago and there are few things that are bothering me. The machine itself is pretty loud compared to a Wii which makes no noise at all. I was wondering if xbox's are like this? or do i need to return mine?

But yes: the 360 is a loud machine compared to the Wii, no matter what version you get. The Wii is strictly speaking, not a current-generation device, capabilty wise. This allowed nintendo to make it small, quiet, and inexpensive.

Best fix is to just bust it open and remove the fans, then its pretty quiet.

Yeah, it'll be even quiter after like 10 minutes of heat building up. LoL.

Of course it's going to be louder than the Wii, it actually generates heat and has fans to move the heat out of the case.
