Cramming a new player inside the 360 probably won't help with airflow and various stuff like that.)

honestly?
the 360s
design is horrible for cooling
inside it's just a stuffy crate of a box where the chips have poor heatsinks
and the fans are placed poorly for circulation purposes
basically the 360 is a pc type arrangement in a 360 shell,
and initially the gpu didn't even have cooling
try taking the cooler off you gpu
bsod anyone?
if you look inside the ps3 it's jam packed with components,
way way waaaay more cramped internally than the 360
but the design is good, nice heatpipe and fan placement
the 360 could pull off all the integrated parts if they overhaul the internal design
and maybe the blu-ray drive will be quiet unlike the engine roar from the existing three
