REAL poll: What position do you have your console in?
 
Ok, since the last thread visibly failed, here's the real poll. What position do you have your consoles in? Does another position worry you about overheating?

Poll incoming.

My 360 is horizontal for the sole reason that putting it vertical blocks the single largest vent on the console. I also give it penty of room in its own compartment so that no heat from other electronics can exascerbate its heating issues.

Haven't had a problem yet. Not even a single freeze or crash.

Same as Professor S. I keep my Wii vertical on the stand, however.

I keep my 360 horizontal as well so as not to block the vent.


I have yet to have any problems though I have only had the console a few months.

Ok I think I'm gonna put my x360 horizontal now. I have it vertical normally and not sure if related but it caused issues.....twice.

Wii is vertical. Standing tall and proud

The best advice is that you should use one position from day one and keep it that way.

I've had my 360 vertical the whole time and it's never caused problems.

However, I'm sure the PS3 and Wii are fine as interchangeable.

My Wii is horizontal although I've had it vertical before. But as of now, it's stacked horizontally on top of the cable box which is stacked on the DVD player.

What happened to make the other thread such a failure?


My PS3 and 360 are both horizontal but at one point they were both vertical... the PS3 looks like ass when it's vertical and the 360 is in a spot now where it fits/looks best being horizontal.

When I had the Wii, it was always vertical. The Wii looks like straight up shit when it's horizontal and not on its base IMO.

The other thread was fine, we just filled it with brilliant your-mom jokes that eclipsed the thread. So we decided to make a new, dedicated thread.

I voted and I don't own any of the 3. I'm just trying to throw of your data.

I used to have my Wii vertical but now I have it horizontal. I had to change it when I bought Super Smash Bros because I couldnt get the gamecube controllers plugged in because they stuck out the top too much. I have had no problems either way.

Poll fails for not including missionary.

We exhausted that kind of thing in the previous thread. Believe me.
