Pros: impressive graphics, wide selection of games, easy set-up, storage space, wireless controllers, Live game-play
Cons: none

When I decided to purchase my first Xbox 360, I decided to go all out, and knowing that I would probably end up wanting to have all the capabilities of playing the games live with other opponents, I went for the Xbox 360 Elite.  In most stores, they ...

Pros: The new black look is cool.
Cons: The added features are not really that impressive.

In 2007 here Microsoft and their Xbox 360 gaming console are in a really good spot in the gaming industry. Since the Xbox 360 got a huge head start over the competition (the Nintendo Wii and Sony Playstation 3 of course) it managed to ...

Pros: Enjoyable high quality gameplay
Cons: A bit noisy (the fans that is)

Please note this review is written from a UK residents perspective so the price range may seem alien to US or other country's asking price for the console. Yet another house move meant that I needed some careful rewarding, the choice of my reward was ...

Pros: Black, 120GB HDD, Multi-language features. Headphones are ideal for late-night gaming.
Cons: Loud fan, hot exhaust, bulky power-supply, few black accessories, no 2nd controller, no battery.

Purchased: Xbox 360 Elite, Turtle Beach X2 Wireless Headphones, Xbox 360 Rapid Charger with battery pack, 2nd Wireless Controller, and 2nd battery pack. When I opened the Xbox 360 Elite packaging, I was disappointed to see the plain packaging ...

Pros: Achievements, 360 Dashboard, game selection, streaming media features, XBox LIVE.
Cons: Failure rates, low quality bundled headset, marketplace points system.

I was very skeptical about the XBox 360. I was a Wii adopter on day 1. I bought a PS3 in the summer of 07. Finally, I broke down and got a 360 in February. I had held off because of the massive failure rate Microsoft was having with the consoles, but I ...

Pros: HDMI, black finish, 120gb hard drive, great games, 1080p
Cons: Price, no built-in HD DVD, no wireless.

I'd started with the original xbox 360 premium that I'd gotten a hold of via a very interesting story that I won't get into, but a couple weeks later, the elite was released, so I claimed to have the "Red Ring Of Death" that even to this die I think may ...

Pros: Improved button layout for console games.
Cons: Not as comfortable as the original.

The new Cordless Rumblepad 2 is a smaller, lighter edition of the original Cordless Rumblepad, requiring only 2 AA batteries instead of 4. The new button layout is ...

Pros: Fun, entertaining.
Cons: Breaks down a little too often due to lack of heat sink.

I purchased my first Xbox 360 a few years ago and I currently have two. If you are looking to entertain yourself this is one of the best video game consoles on the market. Microsoft created a great device with this console. It plays video games in ...

Pros: -All Black -Great Games -Backwards Compatible -Excellent Graphics
Cons: -Loud CD/DVD Drive -Runs Hot -Power supply is kind of cumbersome

Its been a few months since my previous Xbox 360 died on me. I had had it since the release but finally got the infamous "ring of death" Instead of purchasing a new one of the same model (360 Premium), I decided to wait for the Elite since its release ...

Pros: Looks like it finally might be the all in one living room solution.
Cons: can't play many video formats from files unless media center streaming.yawn.

I have had a USA Elite since its release in April, and now, since last Friday, a European one. I was just too curious to wait. The USA model is as hot and loud as all the others from the past three years. In fact the power supply actually melted after ...

Pros: New look, slightly increased specs, larger hard drive
Cons: price

I had bought an XBOX 360 approximately one year after they were exposed to the market. I have had plenty of time to toy and play with this console to gain a consensus on its flaws and general aspects which set it apart from the other consoles.As far ...

Pros: HDMI port,120GB HD,cool black colour and a huge selection of hit games.
Cons: No built in wireless and some heating issues.

Well after waiting for a year i decided not to get a PS3,thats what i had planned to buy but after waiting and waiting i decided the Xbox 360 was the only console worth getting.Now don't get me wrong i think from a hardware point of veiw the PS3 is the ...

Pros: This package has everything you need for great high definition gaming for an incredible price.
Cons: You must have an hdmi port on your tv.

Graphics: This console has astonishing graphics! If you have not seen Gears of War in HD then you are missing out! Cost Benefit: You can't go wrong with this unit. It has a much bigger hard drive than the PS3 and the online gaming experience on Xbox ...

Pros: Big Harddrive Fast Gaming
Cons: Loud fans

Originaly started with the Xbox 360 Premium gaming console, which had the built in 20Gb hard drive. My initial thoughts weren't too high for this system, because I was supposed to have a 20Gb Hd, and the usable space was only 13gb. Another thing I ...
