My brother recently got an Xbox 360 for his birthday and he loves it! It's so hard to get him away from it. I was happy to hear that he wasnt just playing on some video game, he actually interacts with his friends and they play against each other and everything. He did tell me though, the graphics... review »

The xbox 360 has the potential to be a gamers drem. Great graphics, sustained on-line community, plenty of exclusive downloadable content(extra add-on features for a game available only for specific consoles) and some great first party support. Having said that I would still overall say stay away until... review »

Probably one of the most amazing inventions to grace our somewhat limited culture since the creation of ther first computer. It's extensive features include; High quality graphics, dvd player, multiplayer games, extensive titles, and really, anything you want is possible. If you have ever had an original thought in your head, then you will simply love this product!

    I would say I'm a casual gamer at best, and it was my fiancee that bought the Xbox 360 despite the high price. With that in mind, I feel that the Xbox is definitely great as a gaming system, the games display beautifully and crisply, and there is little problem with the system during gameplay. However, we also use the Xbox as a DVD player, and maybe it wasn't meant to be used so regularly, but it has some problems in that area. The fan, for one, to cool off the mechanism, is quite loud and often will stay on after the Xbox has been shut off. Also, the system sometimes refuses to recognize... review »

I am reviewing the XBOX 360. First of all, let me apologize to Microsoft for taking so long to purchase your console. I was a PS2 fanboy and refused to bow down to the XBOX. I am truly very sorry.

 With that out of the way, I believe that the XBOX 360 is the best conole ever. Less than two years ago I was still reluctant to part ways with Sony. I mean not only did they develop the revolutionary original PlayStation, but they had the balls to give us another one in the PS2. But as that console rose to the top, a capable competitor in Microsoft emerged. It has now taken over. When you...

 We bought the XBOX 360 system (3 of them!) at our children's strong encouragement. While not amused at the large price tag of this system we figured it would likely be well worth it since it was a Microsoft product and we consider Bill Gates to be the greatest PC engineer there ever was.

  Our sons wanted this system so badly because of Halo 3 and forza 2 games. Again, not being amused at the $60 price tag of the game, we thought it couldn't be that bad. PS2 allows you to load a game, take the disk out, and put it into a second console in most cases and it's not a PC by any means. We assumed...

In all my years of existance, I have owned many game consoles.  The n64, the PS1, PS2 Game Cube, Computers, Gameboys, PSPs, and Xboxes.  Out of all the consoles I hae owned the Microsoft Xbox, and Xbox 360 were the best.  When the highly anticipated XBOX came out on November 15, 2001, everybody wanted one.  It had the best graphics, and it had Xbox live.  But on November 27, 2005 the Xbox 360 emerged.  This console had the best graphics that had every been seen by human eyes, the best games ever to have been played, and the best online gameplay to ever exist.  Unfortunately, this was a downside. ...

My wife and I purchased the xbox 360 seven months ago, and seven months to the day it crashed with the dreaded "red ring of fire". The game system, accessories and games were supposed to be a big birthday present for five of our children. Since we are on a limited budget, we thought one big gift would be great for them and the whole family. What we got was a huge disappointment! The 360 does have a large library of games, but we found out that the games requiring a lot of memory like "oblivion" had trouble loading from day one. For as much as the console costs, it should at least be able to keep... review »

The Xbox 360 Console is a great system for any age group. It plays games amazingly, all the graphics and quality of the games are great. It has a lot of nice features such as Party Chat, etc. Although the price of Xbox Live ($50 for 12 months) may seem a little bit more pricy than Playstation Online or whatever it is. But think about it, you pay around $10 to go see a movie once at a theatre. So it's not that bad if you think about it like that. But another problem that 360's are prone to are getting overheated, and getting the red rings of death. But Microsoft takes care of the problem pretty...

I received an XBox 360 for my birthday this past year. I was less than thrilled, to say the least, with my present at that time. I figured why would I want to play video games. I'm not say 13. Well boy was I wrong. Wrong about games, wrong about XBox's abilities and features. With the XBox I can play a variety of fun games - from child to mature content. My baby cousin's can come over a play age approriate games - something I thought I need the Wii for. My boyfriend can play shoot-em-up games and race games. I can play fight games (yes I love them!). Not only are there plently of gaming opportunties...
