  • the reson why in the ps3 when you instal a game from the disc to the harddrive the system will still need the disc to play the game is to avoid pirated the games i think the same gose with the 360.

  • I bought this expecting it to make less noise then my previous xbox wrong it makes noise like there's a chopper landing in my garden this is the reason why I hate xbox I already bought 3 360s and they all had problems and with my ps3 I never have a problem

  • The funny thing is when you play on the PS3, the PS3 automatically installs the game. And for the Xbox 360 you just put it in and there you go. No need for installing.

  • I am so sorry! I CAN'T HEAR THE STORY OVER THIS TORNADO IN MY BACKYARD!

    *installs game*

    I managed to reduce the noise to a small butterfly...

  • my xbox had only 60 gb and i used it all I cant install game should i buy another xbox because im scared it's doing so much noise (more than before...)

  • @McChang117 I already had a ps3 and im not a greedy fuck so i wasnt asking for one... but i got one as a suprise so i guess im only going to use it for exclusives

  • You know my mum got me an xbox for christmas with the kinect but the xbox itself only had 4gb..... ONLY 4! THIS IS SEVERELY IMPACTING MY EXPERIENCE FUCK MICROSOFT FOR NOT MAKING SLIM HARDDRIVES CHEAP

  • Yo momma so poor when u asked for and xbox 360 she took a box drew an x on it and spun it in a circle

  • Ive had my 360 for 1 and a half years, with the falcon chip and heard whisper quiet sounds. Either way I dont give a fuck about the fan noise, I have surround sound :D

  • @supax2 Haha, I have surround sound sound also. People who don't have SS have no idea the kind of audio master pieces that these game provide.

  • i've been watching all these videos about NXE and i still dont understand whats the whole point of it... if its suppose to make fan sound quiet then this might be the main reason of RROD... cuz if the fan is loud that means its working no software up dates are gonna fix a hardware overheating problem.... PS3 FTW!!!!! lol

  • we 'bout too get twisted

  • PS3 have it since long time ....

  • Whoa whoa whoa talk slower next time k

  • the ps3 you have no choice to install the xbox u have the choice i went to play rainbow six vegas on ps3 took em 5 mins to instal xbox i can jsut play it and install later

  • @ThatguywhoDropshotZz Uhmm they stopped that like two years ago just saying.

  • Lulz when they tried second time the video bugged totally

  • if you install it, do you have to still have the game disk to play it? if not, how do you play it? do you still get all the achievements even though it is installed?

  • @Palindrome137

    yea you still need the disc and you can still get achievements

  • i have a falcon 360, its NO WHERE that loud from playing on a disc lol

  • You need a reference sound, like a person talking in the same room as the source of the sound. Just like you can't tell how big or small something is without seeing something else in the same picture, you can't tell how loud or soft something is by only hearing that sound (unless you hear the speaker screw up because it couldn't handle the volume; that would be a sound reference).

  • ps3 runs whisper quiet from the begining!!i remember when the crapbox fans would make fun of the install on the ps3,now look microsoft jumped on sony's band wagon and has copied the ps3!!!!.

  • @crazyspyder213 who gives a fuck xbox came out first

  • @ollimadgwick it came out first with all kinds of problems because micosoft knew retards like yourself would buy a crapbox regardless.they said"any problems we can fix later we just have to beat sony,cause they some bad ass dudes when it comes to makeing game consoles".

  • @crazyspyder213 what im concerned about is that if you hate xbox so much why the fuck are you watching this? tell me that. do you think youre some sort of fucking voice of reason? go fuck your piece of shit ps3 and get a social life

  • @ollimadgwick that's why crapbox copies everything about the playstation huh?vertical/horizontal stance of the system,touch sensitive buttons,intergrated wifi,bumpers on the controller and install of the game on the hard drive.damn they might as well just pay sony to make there next console.

  • @crazyspyder213 But the Xbox live marketplace has way more downloads then the PSN network and it worked on its first day, unlike the PSN network when attempting to play online. Just saying that's all. It's your opinion really....... i feel stupid now.

  • @ollimadgwick its jealousy. they wish ps3 had the games and the online gaming experience like xbox. thats why they run it down.

  • fake?

  • its not loud.stfu

  • why did he turn the game sound off?

  • @theunthinkable1 why do you think? To hear the xbox noise being emitted.

  • so could you just rent games install them and give the disc back while keeping the game on your hard drive?

  • They just want u to spend money.

  • @360CodMaster

    It Is IGN Not Microsoft

  • that sounds noy=thib=ng like the noise of a 360

  • im gonna call up and bitch to microsoft becuase I just got red ring. I have no warenty

  • @amast3rMind69

    If You Dont Know How To Spell "WARENTY" They Probably Wont Fix Your Xbox

  • @GenuineMW2 fuck you

  • @GenuineMW2 i did spell it right dipshit

  • @GenuineMW2 Yet you fail at using caps like a normal person AND u write Warranty wrong.

  • @amast3rMind69 pLEASE POST A VIDEO!

  • @0oTheGhilliedGhosto0 of what?

  • Idk why people complain about noise who sits 2ft away from there xbox

  • @MrMustang210 actually i sit around 6 or 7 feet away because my tv is a 19inch and its gay, the xbox noise pisses and annoys me the fucking hell out of me, even if i sit 20000000 feet away it woulnt make a difference

  • @MASTERmw100 lmfao

  • hshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh didididdididiidididididididi

  • my xbox was loud tell i got the rrod after it was fixed it is always silent

  • so does that mean people should 1 game in a group of friends and everyone gets games for practicaly nothing?is this not gona ruin xbox game sales?

  • i cant install it sais this game isnt supported on i try almost every game HELP!!!!

  • Not true, I've done this and the disk is used continuously but the Xbox is never that loud in the first place. I don't like how they changed youtube, it's absolutely horrible.

  • even when I play the game with the installed data on the hard drive it still is noisy..

  • I installed games and well it says that it needs the disk in the systm? so what does it do?

  • do what it says... put the disc in... If you could just play it off the hard drive people would bootleg the shit out of rented game.. thats why you need the disc in

  • @MOTHMANESYKK ya the first time i saw that feature i was like HOLY SHIT FREE GAMES!!!!!! :) then i try play game and it say put disc in and i was like FUCK MICROSOFT

  • my xbox is never hot andit is silent

  • I'm not sure why but my xbox ALWAYS has the fan running at full speed. When I'm at the dashboard, when I install, when I play the disc from the hardrive... Also, it doesnt read now and then. Mys ps3 has never gave me trouble, shame that I dont like its games...

  • there is a few bad things bout xbox

    why batteries ?

    why hdd not so big?

    why pay for live?

    and the last and the most serious argue : why no hddvd? really , why ?i mean if ffxiii will come out i think it will not have beatifull animation videos

  • those aren't problems... they're more like... excuses for something.

  • yeah , anyway i wanna pick up 1 , for xbox 1 games

  • why not get a brand new xbox 1 for $60 if you're not gettign 360 games?

  • i'm really thinking bout this ,really

  • but some good excuses to actually buy a ps3

  • It doesn't take batteries?

  • i just got a xbox 360, the noise loud i though something wrong with the DVD drive.

  • this doesnt destroy my game on my disc right?

  • nope. With my 60GB I installed all of my games I own... SO quiet when you get the game going, and my disks are fine.

  • one day im gonna smash my 360 on the floor.. too much fucking noise..

  • @Tiorpk  its so true

  • Improved; still noisy though.

    That's the thing about shrinking the footprint compared to Xbox 1. Two smaller CPU fans instead of one large one = more RPMs = higher psychoacoustics. And the Xbox 1 wasn't exactly quiet either.

    I think the next generation of consoles should work on that. Our old, simple processors in the Mega Drive, SNES, PS1 and Gamecube etc were nearly silent as they had no fans.

    We need to get noise levels down again; bigger processors running underclocked and such.

  • My Question is will this help with an unreadable problem?

  • yes because the xbox isnt reading the disk anymore it is just identifying that you have the game

  • i cant figure the different out. What is the different in decibel? before and after?

  • You cant do that on a 20gb hdd because you wont have no space left

  • does a premium with 20gb make that loud noise?

    and does it only noise that loud if u play a installed game on your hard drive?

  • well duuuhh its gnna be quieter its not running a disk

  • do you need the cd when you have it installed?.... then you can just borrow friends game and install it? :S.... or what?... lol no more buying more than 1 copy to all friends? xD....

    true or false?

  • ya u need the cd to play no matter wat. installing it just makes the cd not spin, load faster, and fan is quiter, but it takes up about 5-7 gb per game

  • needs disc to play

  • Yea, that's what I thought, too. Unfortunately, you still need the actual disk in the xbox....

  • i saw online that if u installed halo 3, the load times increase greatly, is this true?

  • my tv is like then one ))))

  • my ps3 slim is alot quieter

  • wow xbox360 is better they add new stuff thats cool

  • you can download games omg idk

  • No it works perfectly but after 15-30 minutes it sound a bit louder like the 360. I have a 360 for 4 months, i have watched plenty of movies and i have played lot's of games and the noise still doesn't bother me.

  • My friend's ps3 is noisy as hell!The fans are going crazy!!! So that's why i like my 360.

  • well your friends ps3 is fucked up cuz mines whisper quiet

  • @cmania360 oh my god my ps3 sounds like a fucking generator compared to my xbox

  • That epic 6/5 im gonna install all of my games onto the hard drive so now i got to go buy like 4 120 GB

  • wow xbox is WEAK! it wasn't even reading the disk and it still went crazy sometimes.

  • the update rox!

  • Why not buy a PS3? You dont have to waste 6 GB per game, and even if you wont install the game, it will still be quiet, so you get like shit many GB free

  • bludy fan boys i got both my xbox is flashed, i get free games for 360 and your paying £40 for games on a £300 system that sounds fun even if i get rrod ill still be payin less than your sorry ass get a life comment on ps3 hacks and tricks cos theres millions... or is there?

  • lol i flashed mine too, and when i get rrod i just send it in and they give me a new one, they can never tell if its hacked :D

  • Well that also depends on how much games you have or want, or wich console version you have of a 360.

    Arcade = 512 MB Card

    Premium = 20 GB Hard Drive

    Pro = 60 GB

    Elite = 120 GB

    You are'nt wasting space on your harddrive if you have an elite, and you usually dont get bothered if you dont think about the noise anyway. Gotta have some respect for a 4 year old console dammit

  • who cares how loud it is you can't hear it anyway over the tele.

  • everybody cause it help ur system not get hot..... it doesnt mess up the disk either.

    it helps a ton!

  • yeah, thats what i always think!

  • its good if the disk is damaged because all i does to the disk is recognise that you have the game,

  • what tv is that

  • cool

  • DOES THE LAZER HAV 2 WORK ATALL?????

  • yes it does it wout even play without a disk for that game in the xbox

  • It just reads the disc when you put it in to varify that you actually own the game. It doesn't use the lazer afterwards.

  • nope

  • just to recognise that you have the game.

  • I love this feature, i installed a bf:bc into my HDD and then i scratched the disc by accident and i can still play from the HDD

  • So you are saying you can play the games whithout the disc on it ?

  • no it only reads the start, so i can play

  • you still need the disc inside the xbox in order to play the game...it just doesnt spin..the game is played off the hard drive after you install it on to it...the disc is basically just a key after its been installed

  • wtf are you runing behind this XBOX360?

    is it 1GIGA WATT SUPLY?

  • You still need the disc to play? WTF? Well, here I thought I wouldn't have to worry about scratched discs, but I guess that isn't the case. :(

  • you still need the disc simply because if you didn't, you could just rent a game and then have it. That wouldn't be a great business practice now would it?  You simply need the disc in the tray so you can pretty much back up the fact that you own the game. :| it's not really that big of a deal. The disc won't get scratched so that's not an issue.

  • solide state drives will fix the load times :D but those are expansive

  • Check Out my channel for a close look at the xbox elite its pretty funny

  • will it still work if you have a scratched game in it

  • yeah one of my my games got scratched so I went to the video shop and rented it and installed it, aslong as it can read the name of the game it will play

  • Im gonna get a bigger HD and rent games I want..

  • need cd to actually play the downloaded games

  • u still need the disk to play it.....

  • its only for noise it doesnt exactly give you an advantage apart from a possible decrease in loading times. It should be installed so you dont need the disc. that way it would be easier for me and my friends to trade games for a while

  • black edition guys...120 gib space

  • i dont think i wana download a game to my 20g hard drive :P

  • actually the 20gb hard drive only comes with 12gb

  • i know what's up with that?

  • what tha fuck does tha 360 do with 8GB??

  • Backward compatibility software....I wish they gave us the option to delete it.

  • mine comes with 20 man :S

  • you still have to insert the disc though...

  • 1. copy and paste

    2. send this to 2 other videos.

    4. press refresh twice

    5. LOOK AT YOUR BACKGROUND IT WILL BE FREAKY

  • 1% Percent of teenagers would cry and scream if they saw the Jonas Brothers at the edge of a tower about to jump.

    Copy & Paste if you're in the 99% that would yell "Jump Losers Jump

  • you got that backwards

  • bahahaha lol I reckon ayyyye

  • 1% Percent of teenagers would cry and scream if they saw the Jonas Brothers at the edge of a tower about to jump.

    Copy & Paste if you're in the 99% that would yell "Jump Losers Jump

  • Well that solves it I've got a 120gb hard drive with 110gb of space, guess what i'll fill that with

  • Dude i got a by a new hardrive (because mine is the 1 that came with pro and i have about 8 gb...sucks) and install all my games and sell them to gamestop and keep doing that over and over again.

  • u need the disc still

  • DAMNIT!

  • pwned

  • wow!!!! thats fricken amazing! u have to wait 10 mins+ to make ur system quieter omg...this is epic, wat a break into the gaming industry

  • It's alright, but 120gb is not enough...that's why I prefer PC gaming, or on the PS3 you at least can change to whatever hard drive size you want whenever you want without voiding the warranty since you just use 2.5'' laptop hard drives which you can get up to 500gb right now if I'm not mistaken for less than the price of the 360 120gb drive (unless you have the elite, but it's because of that the elite is so overpriced).

  • Installing can also cut load times on some games. Installing GTA4 reduces the initial load time by 30%. But they also said load times for Halo3 are just as long if not worse, so it's not a cure-all.

  • man... who plays games muted?

    ya so that little spinning noise coming from the console wont even be heard.

  • pointless

  • i dream of having a 120gb memory for installing games but i only have 20gb  o.O

  • i have dream of connecting my xbox to my pc some how and have 1tb space

  • hahah stupid

  • lol installing games with limited memory.

    phails

  • I have one thing to say.. The XBOX 360 dosent make noise!!! For me it is complety sound less!!!!!!

  • True, but not the game themselves, I prefer PC gaming but there are a lot of games that don't make it to the PC ever so I prefer having both (which I do).

  • PC fl

  • Please sub to me

  • do u know how to get old xbox games on a xbox360?

  • i dunno about u guys but i dont hear it when i play u cant hear it unless u want to hah

  • That is true though, back when I had a 360 I didn't hear it at all (even though I had one of the older models without HDMI) because the games were usually louder unless I played the games at very low volumes (which I don't have to do since I live alone).

  • i cant install games on my HDD. It says i need the disk

  • u are stupid, when you install it you still need the disc to play the game it just doesnt read the disc

  • LOL! They miced up an Xbox! That really is nerdy... And in my opinion, that made fuck all difference whether it was installed it or not.

  • i HATE the "new xbox experience" they copied the wii too much

  • can you play online if you install games?

  • yea

  • omfg console users are so dumb, if your that dumb you dont deserve to game

  • im installing every game i play on my xbox. so if i get bored of a game uninstall install sumit else.

  • but when it is installed, the xbox doesnt have to keep spinning the fans to get the information from the disc, it can just use the information stored on the HD to run the game, and thus making the Xbox run alot quieter than normal.

  • if you install your games it destroies the hard drive space

  • just want to ask if there is still a problem issue by updating this nxe dashboard coz i google about nxe earlier and there are some people having some problem with the audio?

  • lol fake i think i got and xbox 360 pro when my old one broke.....and when i play a game without installing it to the harddrive i dont hear a thing

  • it depends on the game, and how often it needs to load different levels and such. when you load a game you should hear the cd drive spooling plus the cooling fan may kick on from time to time. when a game is installed on your hard drive, you will notice less noise while loading because the hard drive spools much quieter then the cd drive. if you can't hear anything its probly because your system is too far from you being able to hear it or in a tight space.
