Xbox 360 sets a new pace for digital entertainment. More than just a cutting-edge game system, Xbox 360 also integrates high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital music, photos, and online connectivity into one sleek, small tower, and in the process puts true Next-Gen power right at your fingertips.  | | Xbox 360, shown with wireless controller, is a sleek, customizable gaming and entertainment system | Under the Hood
Xbox 360 is much smaller than its predecessor--it measures approximately 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs 7.7 lbs. It's powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz. It also carries a custom ATI graphics processor loaded with 10 MB of embedded DRAM, 48-way parallel floating-point dynamically scheduled shader pipelines and Unified shader architecture. This is powerful enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games in standard TV definition, and even better thanks to built-in support for HDTV 1080i televisions. It also supports the widescreen 16:9 format. The unit has a 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM drive, which plays both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out of the box. For game-save and media storage, users can choose between the detachable and upgradeable 20GB hard drive, or a separately sold 64MB flash Memory Unit. Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward-compatible with part of the existing Xbox game library. Control your Gameplay
Xbox 360 uses a refined button layout for its controllers. Back and Start buttons sit at the center of the controller and between them is a new Xbox Guide button, which instantly takes the user to the Xbox 360 user interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos and songs, and more. The black and white buttons of the first Xbox controllers have been replaced with new shoulder buttons placed above the left and right triggers. Xbox 360 can accommodate up to four wireless controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to use for wired controllers or for streaming your digital media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows XP-based PC. Microsoft has also created a video-conferencing camera, sold separately, that will work with the system.  | | Xbox 360 can manage your games, your online friends, and your personal digital library | The Media Experience
All Xbox 360 titles can be played in either standard or high-definition resolution in 16:9 widescreen, with anti-aliasing for smoother graphics. Game designers will be able to take advantage of the system's multi-channel surround sound. The Xbox 360's digital media allows users to supplement any game's music from tracks in their own personal library. Go Live
A built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their system to a broadband connection for access to Xbox Live. The Xbox Live Silver Membership included with the console lets anyone create a Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat live with voice chat, and connect to the Xbox Live Marketplace to buy expansions, maps, and other digital items for your games. You can also update to a Xbox Live Gold Membership at anytime for even more benefits. The separately sold wireless adapter supports the common 802.11a, -b, and -g standards.

 great system August 8, 2008

I've had tons of fun with my xbox and I don't regret buying it at all. I was a little worried about the "ring of death" problem when I got it, but according to cnet.com, that's a problem with earlier versions of the console.
Anyway, the games are very fun, and I'm surprised by how many quality games there are on xbox live arcade.
Even better, msoft is releasing an update in the fall, so you can watch netflix through your xbox....which is pretty cool.
My only complaint is that when it runs a disk, it's quite loud. However, with the fall update you'll be able to install games on the xbox, so that won't be a problem anymore.
I personally like the xbox more than the ps3. The ps3 looks like it's spiderman 3 themed, complete with the evil black grime thing covering it. Also, I prefer the xbox controller over the ps3's, which is basically the same as the ps2 controller.
Although, if you want blu-ray, the ps3 could be a good option.
 Please do your homework before buying the xbox360... August 6, 2008

Let me preface this review by saying that I was (and still am) in love with my 360. That is the problem. I bought my system about 1 year ago and like the other folks, I babied the thing (Seriously). This week I ran headlong into a system failure (RED RING OF DEATH) after 30 minutes of playing during the evening, in an air-conditioned house with good air circulation around the unit. I had been warned by a friend before that failure was "not a question of if but of when". At the time I didn't think it could happen to me, I babied mine. I was wrong. Since then, I have talked to 4 other people who are in the process of repair or who have had theirs repaired. Customer service has been horrible in response to this problem. They changed their policy starting 8/1/08 and no longer mail boxes out for repair. They now email a packing label. After 5 days and 4 phone calls, they are mailing a box. I thought about buying another to tide me over and then selling it on ebay. Look at ebay if you have time. They are being sold in excess, as people have bought extras when confronted with this problem and are trying to unload them. That is because the 360 has a problem. That is why they have set up a program to handle this issue and that is why people are selling them everywhere you look. Do you really want to plunk down 300+ for a machine, if it is going to fail... Who else could market a 300+ maching with such a design flaw and get away with it! At this point, I agree with my friend, failure is almost guaranteed. It is a joy to play, but to be left hanging for 3-4 weeks after it fails is a PAIN. My advice... Think twice about your purchase.
good while it lasted August 5, 2008

the 360 is a nice system if it works beyond 1 year. many people hv experienced problem with their xbox360 after 1 year when the warranty expires. the problem is commonly known as the 3 lights of death. i hv 2 units that hv had this issue. this is supposedly caused by mechanical failure. microsoft is blaming the problem on people plugging their 360 into a surge protector. somehow plugging it into a surge protector makes the 360 work harder for power. whether that is true, u'll be the judge.

Other than the broken Mic out of the box, this system has no flaws yet, except I bought it 3 days before knowing they are upgrading to the 60GB :(
 HORRIBLE BUILT QUALITY! August 5, 2008

The worst system every made. It died after 1 year and my friend's died after 6 months. I handled it with so much care. My other friend works at UPS and he says he sees 1 to 5 broken Xbox 360s every week being shipped back to Microsoft. My Super Nintendo and Sega Dreamcast is still working after all these years. Microsoft does not know how to make hardware. They have no experience in designing new systems. I don't know why they even went into the console business. Xbox live is too over hyped. I own a Playstation 3 also and the Playstation Network is just amazing and it's free to play against other people around the world. All the games I want are coming to Playstation 3. Xbox 360 Elite can't even play blue-ray movies, can't upconvert DVDs to 1080P, doesn't have WiFi, and the Xbox 360 Elite cost more than Plastation 3. The Playstation 3 hard drive can be upgraded to a 250 GB hard drive for less than $100.
