    Bought one of these last year and my Xbox kept stalling with the fan plugged in. I don't know if it's a common thing but you have been warned!

    Yes, apparently if the fan is plugged into the USB port on the Xbox then it just draws more power, generates more heat which can cause problems.

    You would be better off keeping your console in a well-ventilated area rather than try and keep it cool with one of these fans.

    I saw some reasonably priced accessories for the Wii in Xtravision recently too.

    The fan powered by the xbox?
    Personally i wouldn't put any more load on my xbox than i have to.
    Just keep it well ventilated!


    MayoForSam Just beat me to it!

    They have combination USB (PC) and Playstation Connector (PS1/2/3) dual analogue pads in at the moment for a tenner. And yes, they are definitely compatible with the PS3. And yes thats TWO connectors hanging off the one pad.

    Bought two today and they're perfectly adequate.
