Pros: Resolution/Graphics, DolbyDigital 5.1, DVD, Rips CDs, 8GB Hard drive, Endless Gaming Possibilities, Price Cons: Microsoft's not so hidden agenda to dominate & eventually monopolize yet another market
When debating whether or not to purchase an Xbox nothing drove me more crazy than reading reviews from people who had never owned or played an Xbox. The Xbox was released on November 15, 2001 and yet there are a plethora of reviews posted that same day...

Pros: Good Graphics, Fun Games, LOTS of Power, Decent Bang for the Buck. Cons: CONTROLLER!!!! UGLY! HARD TO PLAY!!!
In the year 2002, computer giant Microsoft went boldly where no Apple has ever gone before. Into the strange world of video games. With this experiment sparked the "Power 3" systems that include the XBox, Game Cube and Playstation 2. Who would've ever...

Pros: Lots of options and FAST!
Cons: Pricey
I must admit that it was very difficult to choose between the X-Box and Nintendo's new Game Cube! I've been a Nintendo fan for years but I was curious to see what Bill Gates came up with. I was not disappointed!
I've heard alot of complaints...

Pros: Interface, hardware, ergonomic controller, built-in broadband, Hard drive. Cons: DVD remote must be purchased separately.
The X-Box is both good and bad, and is going up against the PS2 in terms of the lead console. I believe that the PS2 is currently kicking it's butt in terms of game lineups, but that's not to say the X-Box is without save.
First of all, the...

Pros: Internal Hard Drive, Awesome Graphics, Ability to Copy Music Cons: This console should have come out sooner.
I remember the year that Microsoft announced the Xbox as their first-ever gaming console. I thought Microsoft was making a mistake trying to get into the gaming business and should just stick to software. I read so many reviews of the Xbox and heard of...

Pros: HDTV 1080p, 460p, Dolby DTW sound, FOUR controller ports, Built in Ethernet Cons: None
The xbox is simply the best of the best. Any hardcore gamer or "tech head" and audiophiles will appreciate the strength and power of the xbox. Excellent support for high resolution HDTV 1080 and 460 modes, superb DTS sound and graphics that no OTHER...

Pros: More powerful that PS2, Has built in internet capability. Cons: Japan lacks interest in XBox which will surely drive the system of games.
About a few years ago, Microsoft shocked the world when they announced they would enter into the video gaming industry. XBox, Microsoft's killer console, has been called the PS2 killer and rumor had it that XBox would dominate the game console...

Pros: powerful, like a pc, lots of potential, emulation? Cons: lets hope MS gets the OS right...
Well... it was inevitable. Microsoft has decided to enter the console market. MS is building one the most rawkus of a consoles known to man. This monster machine is simply named "X Box": a console that, if created properly, could be a serious...

Pros: System looks good, nice specs Cons: No REAL trusted info, no gameplay yet, no promises
This product has not been released, there has not been in depth studies, besides those from Microsoft themselves, and supporting companies. You all may read info about it, boasting all the specs. features, and gameplay, yet, we still do not even know if...

Pros: Hands down, the most powerful video game system in history...so far... Cons: Controller is a DC ripoff, it's as big as a house.
When it was first announced that Microsoft was joining the battle of the titans between Nintendo and Sony, skeptics everywhere thought that it was nothing but a publicity stunt and plot to take over the world as Microsoft had already attempted....

Pros: Graphics, Audio editing feature, built in Hard Drive Cons: Price of console, price of games
That's right what Billy Boy wants, Bill Gates will get. Now that he has forced the world to have to basically depend on using his duct taped operating systems he is going to force mad gamers to trust in him to provide professional level gaming...

Pros: Hands down puts the other consoles to shame. Killer Specs. Cons: Lack of peripherals (but it just came out so can't really expect a lot)
I bought a Jet-Black Nintendo GameCube first before Christmas came, making sure it wasn't sold out. Being sold out wasn't an issue in many retail stores, making me a little skeptical about purchasing it. I also bought a controller, 8mb Memory Card, and...

Pros: Awesome graphics. Excellent Sound. Great control. Cons: Controllers may feel larger to some.
Microsoft's entry into the console business is a good one. The XBox is a very powerful and compelling platform for not only gamers, but also casual players. The performance of this system is on par with the 2nd generation (PlayStation 2) of Sony and the...

Pros: Great graphic and sound capabilities. Internal hard-drive and music-ripping system. Cons: System is HUGE and HEAVY! Awkward controller. Limited games.
With online capability, an internal hard-drive, and a system that lets you store music and put it into certain games, Microsoft's X-Box may be the best new system to come around in quite a while.
The X-Box's sound capabilites are right up...
