ps3 vertical or flat?

Im getting a ps3 in a few days and my room is absolutely packed with my 360, wii, pc, tv, etc and if i could stand the ps3 vertically it would save a lot of spacebut i dont know if its a good idea. would a vertical stand help with more ventilation or is it going to be already well ventilated?

It is better for your PS3 to be vertical.

I know on certain comptuers the way the heat is disipated is the way the computer sits. FOr instance certain computers laid down horizontally will overheat.

Secondly I have heard alot of people complaining that the xbox 360 standing vertically causes games to scratch, but the PS3 is obviously different and does not have the disc tray.

I would recommend to lay the PS3 horizontal unless you dont have a choice.

So, it's at your sisters house?! why?

LOL

People said the same thing about the 360 (putting it vertically), and then wondered why it overheated.

Yeah, great idea. Lay it right on it's air intake vent. It doesn't matter if heat rises, or if the place where the fan blows is clear....if it can't take IN cool fresh air, you'll eventually roast it.

Personally I enjoy horizontal. I'm scared my PS3 will fall over or something.
