Advantages: Great console with all perks of normal console and 5 free games Disadvantages: None
...to your computer (thanks to microsoft making a large majority of the world's computers) and access a lot of it's content.
However it is in the online features where the xbox 360 truly shows its potential as being a great console. The xbox live system is great and every owner of an xbox is entitled to a free silver membership in which you can download games, music, videos, wallpapers, pictures (i could go on for a while) from the marketplace. Although ... ...you can use microsoft points to buy these. of course there is still a lot of free stuff available and lots of demos of most new games.
You can also purchase a gold membership for only about £30 - £40 and access all the above as well as being able to play for unlimited time onlin on games such as Call Of Duty 4 (probably my favourite game).
The xbox 360 is also a very attractive console ad looks quite sleek and stylish - fits very nicely next to ...

Advantages: All the basics you need to get started Disadvantages: No hard drive or HDMI cable
The X-Box 360 Arcade package is probably the cheapest X-Box package currently available and contains just about everything you need to get you started in your gaming experience. Personally, I see this more as a starters kit, it contains all the basics that you need and that's about it, so it's a good package for testing the X-Box out and finding out if you'd like to upgrade. I bought one of these around Christmas time (2008) for around £130, just ... ...that I am more than satisfied with the product. The arcade pack comes in with twelve months warranty, though a lot of people say that the X-Box console has a tendency to pack in just as the warranty runs out. However, there is also an option to buy an extra five years insurance for just £50 working out at £10 a year so it's definitely worth taking the opportunity to get it insured. The console comes with an arcade game collection that contains simple ...

Advantages: good range of games; enjoyable Xbox live service; perfect starter-kit Disadvantages: certain techno faults; difficult dealing with manufacturer
...machine was out of warranty, Microsoft would fix it. However, in order to get it fixed, we had to go through an unnecessarily complex process with shipping labels, etc. (which did not work from the emails we received), but eventually we got it sorted. However, it took so long that we actually went out and bought another one! This second one had trouble with the power supply only two months after being purchased. Intermittently, the power supply would ... ...problem was. Trying to call Microsoft to deal with the problem proved an unnecessarily lengthy and convoluted process, however, so ultimately we went through Amazon to get a replacement. It's important to consider your vendor, then, when buying an Xbox, as they're quite well-known for certain problems, and dealing with the actual manufacturer is never simple. That out of the way, the joys of the Xbox: ===Xbox Live and Additional Features=== I am ...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Arcade
Advantages: exclusive game Disadvantages: noise, power brick
I got this as a present for christmas and i think its the best console on the market. It has the best choice of games, its the cheapest and its reliable. This package wouldn't be the one i chose though because you dont get a hard drive with it and you really need one of those but you can pick them up fairly cheap anyway but beside that its very stylish and the wireless controllers have a long battery life, there is also a long range of accessories ... ...i have ever seen and the console is noisy but is very good with game processing and has the best online action with exclusive games being the best, games you can now buy off xbox live and the sky player. I would recommend this product to anyone thinking of getting a console as this is the best. ...
