Xbox - 360 Console Review Summary
Game players love the Xbox 360. The latest game console offered by Microsoft features awesome graphics note console fans. Most older Xbox games are compatible, and the game collection is growing. The game console system can be used as a DVD player (with an add on), and it intergrates with home computers for online gaming through Xbox Live (by subscription). Some game players do note problems with Xbox 360 including a loud fan and basic issues with system failure. Save the warranty information and follow up with problems.

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…

There are some pros and cons, but mostly pros. I do not own one myself, but my boyfriend, an intense video gamer, does. He enjoys it very much -- almost too much. The Xbox 360 provides amazing graphics and easy controls often allowing you to switch button controls to the way you are most confortable with. My only qualm is that when my boyfriend does play, that's all he'll do. I can't get any answers out of him and tearing his attention away is like ripping apart two super-glued nickels -- almost impossible. Once he's started playing a new game, he won't put the controller down until he's beat…

This device is much better than the original XBOX. The online play is better than anything else. You have the option for wireless controllers, which gives you space to move while playing. The HardDrive is much bigger and you can store things such as music, games, and movies. You can even sync your computer to your XBOX 360. You can choose from original XBOX games to play as well as brand new games for the XBOX 360. So, if you upgrade from an original to a 360, you won't be losing out.…

The Xbox 360 console is one of the most advanced gaming device in the world. The games are outstanding and very numerous. Some people seem to get the Red Ring of Death but I have had mine for 2 years now and still haven't experienced any problems yet. Some people say that the PS3 is better than the 360, but that is not true. Xbox live is incredible, unlike the online gaming that the PS3 has. If you ever have to choose between the 360 and the PS3, always choose the 360. —…

This machine is the best gaming console available to date. You can spend hours by yourself or with the family playing on this thing. Definately get the online package so you can play online with other people. You can add friends to your profile, a gamer pic, a motto that represents you as a person, and much more. They also have an arcade system where you can play old and outdated games for those people who like that kind of…

The XBOX 360 is great while it's not broke. I've already had two display the red ring of death, but being the masochist that I am, I'm getting another one. The support provided by Microsoft has beeb bad to say the least, but I love that I can easily stream media from my PC (though I believe I can also do that with the…

I love the Xbox 360. The only problem I have had is that sometimes it gets overheated. I took the console in to be worked on once and since then my problems have gone away. I love the graphics and picture from the Xbox. Also, the gaming choice has gotten so much more broad which is good for audiences of all…
