We imagine that "Innercooler" was already trademarked and, seeing as how kids love their internets, a branding dynasty was born: Nyko's Intercooler. Despite the possibility of burninating your precious Xbox 360, the Intercooler sold like, err, hot cakes capitalizing on gamer's fears that all that heat pouring out of their Xboxen demanded additional cooling measures. Like, umm, a moth to a flame, Nyko has returned to intercool your PlayStation 3 and, uh, smoke out those rascals at Pelican. Despite sticking to the potentially problematic pass-through design from the original, the folks at IGN noted that they experienced no scorched console action. Did it work? Sure it did, pushing five fans worth of air through the side and rear vents. But all that air comes at a cost -- the noise. But if you house your PlayStation 3 in a small unventilated cabinet right next to your hot water heater and under an electric blanket, thus necessitating a $30 product such as this, we doubt you'll notice the increased decibels.
