Some pretty intense stuff man, I still want one, but I have a feeling the PS3 is going to dominate.

Xbox 360

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A Chicago man who bought Microsoft Corp.’s new
Xbox 360 has sued the world’s largest software maker, saying the new video game console has a design flaw that causes it to overheat and freeze up.

The proposed class action claims that in Microsoft’s bid to gain share in the $25 billion global video game market, the company was so intent on releasing the Xbox 360 before competing next-generation machines from Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE - news). and Nintendo Co Ltd. that it sold a “defectively designed” product.

Robert Byers, who brought the suit, said the power supply and central processing unit in the Xbox 360 overheat, affecting heat-sensitive chips and causing the console to lock up.

Microsoft spokeswoman Molly O’Donnell on Monday said the company does not comment on pending litigation.
