    My 360 and Wii, as well as PS3 and PS4 have had such problems.
    The 360 and Wii had a cooked GPU!
    The others it was the HMDI switcher box that was interfering with the signal, changing to a better brand of switcher fixed the problem.

    my ps4 just after dying. It started off with little red dots all over the screen and then it went black and hasn't booted up since, tried 6 different hdmi cables on 2 different tvs, wont even boot into safe mode. Starts up with blue light which then turns into a flashing white light and then orange light and then powers off. Really annoyed.

    Have you checked the pins in the HDMI port, rather than the cables?
    link
    It might be that and, if the console is out of warranty, you might be able to affect a repair yourself, replacing the component.
    the part you might need
    and how to install it....
