THE GOOD:
It looks cool.
It supports the best graphics I have seen.
The sound is earth shaking and clear.
The controller was a snap to adapt to.
Support Music and DVD, plus with my HDD I can laod in my music!

THE BAD:
It runs a bit loud.
The Power brick is huge.
Hardware is pricey as hell, Wireless network adapter=$100. What the Hell?

SUMMARY:
This console is awe inspiring, it has a sleek tower and it blends into most any room. It is not as loud as some claim, but that is aside the point.

To get down to business, I am a game cube owner, my parents bought it, and I have been stuck with it for several years. Until just recently, this week, on Monday I brought home my Xbox. I plugged it in, and was blown away. First I want to talk about the sound. In this regard, this system DELIVERS. It has some of the cleanest and most crisp sound I have experienced on a console. Each gunshot in my copy of GRAW2 Rings...

THE GOOD:
Xbox Live--Fun, interactive, lots of features, marketplace is where it's at.
Xbox Live Arcade--Street Fighter, Hexic, Billiards, and more.
Large library of games so there's bound to be something that's you'll like.
Fairly inexpensive for all it's got

THE BAD:
No built in Wifi.
Can overheat easily if not ventilated properly.
Seperate HD-DVD drive

SUMMARY:
The Xbox 360 has been around for about 2 years now and started off way ahead of its competition. Today, it's still having a good run. Despite all the complaints and cold remarks about its hardware problems and the dreaded "Red Ring of Death," this is truly an amazing machine.

Setup:

The setup is easy to follow and doesn't take long at all, unless you need a parent to help you and have to drag them over to fill some stuff out. Registering your system is fast and easy, and will ensure good customer service if anything goes wrong with...

THE GOOD:
~ Xbox Live.
~ Xbox Live Arcade.
~ Some exclusive titles.

THE BAD:
~ Reliability.
~ Limitations.
~ Hardware issues.

SUMMARY:
I'd just like to state before I start this review [As I will with all my console reviews] that I own each of the 3 next gen consoles, so I'm not bias in any way.

For starters, the 360 was first out of the blocks in the console race. It enjoyed a lucrative year bringing us titles like the life consuming Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and arguably the best third person shooter around in Gears of War. Add into the mix their award worthy online system with Xbox Live and you've got what seemed to be a pretty much unstoppable gaming machine.

Before I go into the bad, we'll look at the good. Xbox Live is a brilliantly easy online system, accessible with an internet connection and for only €60/$40 a year you can have unlimited access to online gaming and all...

THE GOOD:
  • Xbox Live Dashboard is very deep and easy to use
  • Graphics and sound are awesome!
  • King of the Online play: period.
  • The best control I've ever used
  • Small and durable
  • Silent
  • Sleek and sexy!

    THE BAD:

  • The power brick and cords.
  • DVD-9 will be a problem in the future
  • The fact that the hard drive is detachable ruins it for those of us who have one
  • Why can't I play my Madden games with the BC?!

    SUMMARY:
    You need to hand it to Microsoft. They came into the gaming world with no knowledge. Into a world ruled by Sony. And they almost went the way of the Dreamcast. However, thanks to Halo and some more better games, they hung in there. Now they are back, and better than ever! In almost every way, they fixed what was wrong with the Xbox and made the things that were good about it better. So how did they do? Find out.

    The console itself has a white...

    SUMMARY:

    It's the first console to come...
