Game Guy was just about to wax long and windy about his latest complaint with Microsoft’s Xbox 360 when Matt Peckham beat him to it.

On Friday, Peckham published a piece in PC World about the gawd-awful noise Xbox makes when it’s not flashing a red ring. He compares the racket to a smog-belching city bus, a leaf blower, an exceptionally cranky vacuum cleaner … and that’s being nice.

So, instead of making his own leaf-blower sounds, Game Guy will let Peckham do it. Take a look at his rant and see if your analogies match up.
