I'm not really partial, and I will admit, the only reason I even got a new computer was to play Halo when it came out for PC, and I got a Xbox when Halo 2 came out, and I got a Xbox 360 for Halo 3, but thats just cause Halos a damn good game, and I wanted one anyway, but I personally like the 360 more. It offers better games, and pretty damn good graphics. I don't like the fact that Microsoft tries to rip you off one everything, like the network adapter, but its a pretty solid console. Even the new Premiums are nice. There coming with the HDMI port and bigger heatsink, which was exclusive to only the Halo 3 360s and Elites.

Oh, and that intercooler actually works fairly well. The only issue was with the older ones that had the hardware issue, which would cause it to run extremely hot and caused the intercooler to melt to the back. Some people complained that when they pulled it off it pulled out the socket as well, but thats because they probably didn't use the release button. Its not an issue with the Halo 3, Elites, and new Premiums anyway, since along with the other issues, they added a metal backing plate to the power socket.
