MY GAWD THE MOTOR NOISE IS LIKE BLACK MEN STICKING THEIR DICKS IN MY EARS (which ironically, almost occurred after some black gay men hit on me at college but that's another story altogether!).

When I upgraded to the Elite, I noticed that it makes far less noise.  My older 360 sounded like someone was blending up smoothies.

My 360 sounds like it's dying when I play COD4.

Anyways, I'm back home now and I'm playing the game on a 32 inch Samsung lcd and..

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

It's literally right next to me because I have an HD LCD PROJECTOR which makes me even less poor than you

I will say in the 43 hours of DW: Gundam i've clocked the drive seems to halt every once in a while when im at a mission screen for too long with a 'disc dirty' error which makes my eyes roll right out of the room.

does mondain sit on your lap and alternately groan at the 100+ decibal noise level and your hand on his crooked purple tooter

I can hear the drive if I listen for it, but I rarely notice it unless the game hitches, then I pay attention to the noise. I think ALL of us can hear it if we choose to, but taking into account all the moments we are actually playing the game, I dont think its something worth giving a flying shit about.

You talk as if DW: Gundam leaves the 360 often ;)

Honestly, other than COD4, it's quiet. The game is just too awesome.

Same set-up for me. Somedays I can't figure out which is louder or gives off more heat!

Solution for mondain:

1) Turn up the volume on your speakers
2) If you can't do that, play with headphones.
3) Success!

I barely notice the motor because I'm usually throwing my controller or making lots of racial remarks on how fucking shitty and difficult a game is

COD4 :rock

you don't put a period after the parentheses.

LURN AMERICAN.

btw, I would have never noticed cared about 360's DVD drive noise if it wasn't for people spamming forums about it.

Reasons why the 360 is the worst console:

Red ring of doom (fuck you Microsoft)
While playing games, you wonder if you are playing Ace Combat 6 even if you aren't because the DVD drive sounds like an aircraft taking off.
