Kidrock2110 says "Xbox 360 Offering a New Generation of Gaming Experience" about Xbox 360 - Xbox 360 Elite Console

Kidrock2110 — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 04:15:50 GMT

As gaming has developed over the years, from the Atari and early Nintnedo systems with entertaining gameplay and simple enjoyment, it is hard to believe what termendous strides Microsoft has made with the new Xbox 360 Console. Not only does this system offer a thrilling game play experience, but offers mind boggling options that leaves the even the most advanced gamer with plenty avenues to explore.

I am most impressed with the wide range of appeal, from more simple puzzle disney games that I can enjoy with my nephew, to a more complex and challenging experience for the more advanced die hard gamers.

The console itself features a sleak design and offers a few differenet variations to again appeal to the different level of gamers. The online capabliities takes this new generation console and catapults it into the new age. How exciting is it that I can play numerous games with my friends and family acrossed the globe? Simply amazing.

Overall this console is a must have for...

S909 says "the game cube is wonderful and so much fun!" about Nintendo - game cube

S909 — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 04:10:17 GMT

The system is great. It is small enough to hide away and the power chord has the extension so you don't have to plug in that giant box that covers all of the other plug-ins. I also really like that you can choose your color even if there are only three. The silver one is nice. I noticed on a lot of the controllers the rubber parts on the sticks breaks off. I do not think they needed such large boxes for the games though for such a tiny disk. iIt is much less clunkier than a cartragesThe games for it are wonderful too! There are classic games made better and there are old games they improved upon. (It has the best Mario Kart in my opinion.) Also it uses the same back hook-up as the Super Nintindo so you do not have to completely unplug everything to switch between the two consoles. Fairly pretty graffics. HUGE improvement to the N64 graffics but that's to be expected. Overall love the console, would recommend if you can find one.

jay444 says "The Xbox 360 is the best console i have ever played with" about Microsoft Xbox 360 Pro (60 GB) Console

jay444 — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 03:16:12 GMT

Microsoft's Xbox 360 was the first "next-generation" game console to hit the market in November 2005, beating the Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3 by a full year. Like its peers, the 360 initially suffered from a somewhat anemic game lineup and some annoying hardware and software limitations. Since its launch, however, the Xbox team has implemented an assortment of incremental improvements, even going so far as to release an updated version of the console. The result, as of fall 2007, is the best version of the Xbox 360 to date. The current model features the HDMI output with 1080p video support that was missing on the original version, as well as a host of other tweaks and improvements to the system's underlying software. Best of all, the 360 now boasts the largest--and many would argue, the best--game lineup. In addition to great games such as assasins creed and call of duty 4, the 360 is the only console where you can play such must-have exclusive titles as Halo 3, BioShock, Gears of War...

Kolai says "Great, great game." about Xbox 360 - Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2

Kolai — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:49:44 GMT

My brother got this game when it first came out, and over the thanksgiving break, he's come down to visit. He brought the game and I could not stop playing it once he got there. I've put over 20 hours into it in just a couple of days and that's while battling for the TV with my 5 brothers and sisters.

The graphics are to die for, the campaign is addicting, and the multiplayer gameplay is awesome. I love the fact that your multiplayer character levels up according to how well you perform in the matches. As you level up, you unlock more things to make your character able to kick even more butt.

The only downside to the game is that there is no co-op campaign which really sucks. The closest thing to it is the Special Ops which are okay but they're really short. It's not as continuous as the free flow campaign.

Either way, it's still a fantastic game for fans of any kind.

Kolai says "The Xbox 360 is great for any gamer. " about Microsoft - xbox 360

Kolai — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:44:13 GMT

Okay, I am a pretty intense gamer and for someone like me, the Xbox 360 is phenomenal. It has a very wide selection of games for anyone. I personally like RPGs and the 360 has a wide variety of them. There's so many games to choose from that it's hard to do just that. I wish i had more time and money so that I could play them all.

However, like anything else, it does have a downside. The infamous red ring of death has claimed the life of many 360s. Though it has not happened to mine, it has happened to many of my friends' consoles. I've had mine for a couple of years though, and I haven't experienced that in any kind of way, so I believe that if you just take really good care of it, you should be fine.

Overall, the Xbox 360 is a moderately reliable product that is definitely worth the buy. The games are great, they don't freeze, and apart from the ring of death it doesn't have any problems. It'll be a good console for any gamer and I would recommend it to fans of any genre.

strangeparoxysm says "The Play station 2 is a good deal." about play station 2 - play station 2

strangeparoxysm — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:16:06 GMT

The Play Station 2 is a good product to buy for the money. It's said it only is supposed to last a few years, but mine has been around for about 6 years or more. It also is pretty durable, as mine still works even though it has been dropped and thrown around many times. The graphics are pretty good too, and there are a lot of games to choose from to play on it. You also can use Play station games on it, which is cool. The only thing I don't like is how much dust gets into the game, and I constantly have to clean out the fan in the back. But there's also a lot more cool things to it. You can watch dvd's on it, which is convenient. And you also can listen to music CD's on it. There's also fun things to use with it, like the eye toy, dance mats, and guitar's. And the Play Station 2 is affordable. So if you don't have enough money to buy the Play Station 3, It's not that bad of a thing to settle on the Play Station 2.

hatsuneko says "A Nintendo Wii is a great system for all ages." about Nintendo - Wii

hatsuneko — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:02:03 GMT

The Nintendo Wii is a system that is great for everyone. There are games that appeal to people of all ages and walks of life. Games for fitness, shooting and fighting games for the hardcore gamer, party games, learning games, and a lot more. It is good for a family, or good for just a single player. you can get up and move around, or you can sit still. Because of internet connectivity, you can download games from all past nintendo systems, and then others such as the sega systems. There is exclusive content, as well. There are even free channels where you can browse the internet, make a 'mii', vote in random polls, catch the weather, and new material is being added ALL the time.

The graphics might not be as "next generation" as the Xbox 360 or the Playstation 3, but this system has a very broad appeal, an the prices for the system and the games themselves are far less expensive. Also, there is a HUGE selection, unlike with those other systems. Not all games are released...

tomdechant says "its great except for red ring of death virus" about Microsoft - xbox 360

tomdechant — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 22:35:50 GMT

i was very impressed with the quality of the gaming systems graphics as well as the systems speed. the selection of games is also very good. I didn't have any problems running the system or any complaints except the after i had had the system a while i found the it suddenly started freezeing up and there was a red ring where it used to be green. I found out this was called "the red ring of death" and also that it was common with the system. unfortunately i bought the system used so it was not under warranty and found that it would cost me about the same amount that i paid for it (200 dollars) to send it into microsoft to get it fixed. the on-line play was excellent as well as the multi -player, although live is a little expensive. i don't think i would really recommend this system to anyone else unless the bought the xbox 360 elite which is guarantied not to get the red ring of death. on very cool thing about this systen is that you can download music and movies onto it and also use...

DFGirlTristaLou says "Not as good as PSP." about Nintendo - DS

DFGirlTristaLou — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 21:53:12 GMT

We got a Nintendo DS awhile back and we were so excited. Compared to all the other Nintendo systems it was really good. The graphics were good and we were pleased. I loved that when my son would visit family that he could play the same game with his cousins. One thing I didn't like though is the price of the games. Even the used games were expensive. I am sure that is because the DSI can play those games also, but still I just had a hard time paying that much. I did also love that the DS could play the gameboy advance games. That was a really great feature. I love the system's that will still use the games from the old systems. It nice to be able to keep playing your favs from those systems.

But if you compare the DS to the PSP don't waste your money. The PSP has it beat. The graphics are amazing on the PSP compared to the DS. You can access the internet with a PSP. There seems to be a way better selection of games and choices on the PSP. You can even buy games online at the Playstation...

unpredictable says "my family plays this all day long if they could" about Xbox 360 - Microsoft

unpredictable — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 20:27:20 GMT

we've had the XBOX 36O since it first came out a few years ago. we have over 50 games i do believe. My hubby is a big fan of games so when ever there is a new game that sounds interesting and that he likes, he gets it. I've also played as well there's a few games out there that i like to play and i still play to this day. and sometimes you'll find yourself playing for hours. Something gamers, should invest in.

I do think that it is very awesome, now you can get on twitter and facebook on your own tv from your xbox and listen to music from the radio stations. We even put Netflix on our xbox, not only can you listen to music, You can talk to you friends send pictures. Watch movies, I mean if you have the internet and an xbox sometimes you forget to get on your computer, If only you could search the web with your Xbox then you wouldn't get on another computer because you'll have everything on a much bigger screen and all in one...

JericaBean says "I think Wii Fit is amazing(:" about wii - Wii Fit(:

JericaBean — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:45:15 GMT

Wii Fit is spectacular, in my opinion. You can check your weight daily, do fantastic activities, have yoga and strength pair up into one exercise, and lose weight. You can walk, dance, move imaginary bubbles, and make yourself to look like a tree. (: The yoga poses are rejuvinating, the aerobic exercises are doable, the balance games are fun, well, i shouldn't say only the balanced games are fun, because every application on the game is fun and entertaining. (: i think they should have some better tunes on it, or at least a little more songs, i hear the same songs so much, i sing them in my sleep.(; But, other than the songs, this game is super and it has to my all time favorite game ever. :D and i mean, ever. Most people don't like it because you exercise through the whole game, but why buy if you don't want to get fit? it has fit in the name. kind of the point of the game. (; it really does work. with the the game and my vegetarian diet, i've lost about 20 pounds in half a year. i...

julie1065 says "I would never buy another play system, love my x-box360 elite." about Xbox 360 - Microsoft - Xbox 360 Elite Console

julie1065 — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 06:21:17 GMT

Only one play system for me

I absolutely love my xbox elite. I have three consoles, My Husband,my three sons, and my daughter all use. I use to hate the gaming systems because it took my family away from me. Then Rockband came alongand changed everything. I am right in there arguing over who is next.

We now enjoy the xbox experience as a family as well. My husband has friends from all over the country that play Halo together almost every night. They have recently met in person. Since Netflix has joined with xbox, when we are all home together, we watch a movie or our favorite new show "Dexter".

There are many other features xbox offers that make it the ultimate experience of gaming systems. "matchmaking" allows you to play multipalyer games with people outside your home. The "marketplace" has movies and games you can download. You can choose between video or audio chat with up to 6 people at one time. Social networks Facebook and Twitter are now available over xbox live.

Every system...

tsull1964 says "The Microsoft XBox 360 is the best video game console." about Microsoft - xbox 360

tsull1964 — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 05:30:14 GMT

The Microsoft Xbox 360 is the best video game console that I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Unlike its predecessor it is very multifaceted in that you are able to do many different things with the console. It is more than just a video game console it is a DVD player, CD player, video and audio recorder and communication system. I have had video game systems for many years now, I started out with a Nitendo game system then Super Nintendo then XBox and finally XBox 360. Like the other systems the XBox 360 plays your favorite video games but with enhanced graphics and audio. But unliike those other game systems you can also play and record music cds, play your favorite movie DVDs and with the XBox Live availability you are able to connect to the internet and download your favorite games and movies and also play games against other players via the internet and communicate with them using your headset which comes included with your game console. Along with this feature XBox Live...

"Attention, Attention. All shoppers waiting tonight at midnight will be glad to hear, Playstation3's will be on sale midnight till Playstation 4." the microphone ejaculated out,"Playstation consoles will be on sale for $500."

imfresh says "The Xbox 360- one of the greatest inventions of technology." about Xbox 360 - xbox 360

imfresh — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 23:34:00 GMT

I believe the Xbox 360 is the greatest gaming device out there. its intense gaming online an off along with a never seen before gamerscore make it not only one of the hottest things out there, but one of the most revolutionary! I own one myself and I find myself unable to put down the controller when i play. If the graphics were rated on a scale from 1-100, everyone would put infinite. Not only is it a great gift for the holidays, but it would be a treat to yourself. A marvelous and splendid piece of art the Xbox 360 is, not only captivating the eyes of players everywhere, but this generatios heart as well. So why you should you buy it? Because you can trust that your getting quality and not a bunch of tricks. Why shouldn't you buy it? I quess if you dont like action, adventure, explosions, drama, stories, and the ability to have amazing amounts of fun, then you shouldn't. So go, out when you can, and buy or at least play it. You'll be glad you did.

mikepg1030 says "The PS3 is the best console on the market." about Playstation 3 - PS3 80GB 2 USB

mikepg1030 — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 23:26:52 GMT

The PS3 80GB version is one of the best models of the system. Unfortunately, I do not own the version that supports PS2 games so that is the only possible drawback. However, the benefits far outweigh the cons.

The movie playback is excellent and truly upconverts DVD into superior quality. Most of my friends who have watched a movie thought the movie looked crisper and sounded better. I could only imagine what an actual Blu-Ray would look like.

The games although lacking exclusives are at the best with classics such as MLB The Show, Metal Gear Solid, Gran Troismo. The graphics are stunning and the controllers are very easy to pick up and play. Most of the people I play against have little to no trouble in getting into a game and some have even said that they like it more than an Xbox 360.

The internet networking is completely free and is generally really good depending upon the game and the connection that each person is on. Also, setting up a connection is very easy thanks to the excellent...

Insomniac21x says "The game cube is a great system" about GameCube - nintendo game cube

Insomniac21x — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 22:27:54 GMT

The game cube is a wonderful system. It has a lot of great games as well as great controllers. One of the biggest hits for it is Super Smash Brothers Melee. That game is amazing. It has the capabilities to allow four players to play games at one time and the controllers are arranged in a way that allows for superior game play. The Zelda Package on gamecube that encompasses all of the old zeldas was amazing as well. The controller is perfect for that game. In general, the system has a lot of big hits and great games to play as well as the fact that it is very durable and tough to break. It can withstand falls and takes up very little room. Nintendo makes fantastic video game consoles and the Game Cube is definitely one of them. Also, if you buy game cube games, you will be able to play them on your Nintendo Wii because the Nintendo Wii is backwards compatible so your games won't go to waste.
