I would say that the Microsoft published games such as Halo are of better quality, these are all exclusive the 360 too (well some are on PC format...).
The 360 doesn't have as many accessories as the Wii or the Playstations but the exclusive games are of a better quality. If you want something that provides a complete entertainment package that you can just plug into your tv then get a PS3, but be prepared to pay a lot. If you already ...

...there within seconds.
It is clear Microsoft have put a lot of thought into this console and i think they will gain lots more sales frm this one then they did from XBOX1. I have had quite a few playstation fans come here to see it and have decided on buying a 360 (when microsoft decide to make a few.)
WORTH BUYING if you can have XBOX live. it is now included free in the 360.
not worth buying the core system in my opinion because games are ...

Advantages: Marvelous UI, comfy fluid controllers, Xbox Live, Xbox Live, Xbox Live! Disadvantages: Mostly crap games, prone to overheating, no upgrade to standard hard disk.
Well here it is (even if it is a little late.. The review I mean, although perhaps the 360 would have been better served had it been a little late..)..
Microsoft's follow up to the console giant, even if it wasn't the most successful in sales, there's no other console I've ever spent 10pm till 8am playing co-operatively with a friend who lives 10 miles away.
The Xbox 360. Shouting about High definition, a million channels of sound, wireless ...

Advantages: Very Noisy Disadvantages: Great graphics
Very good looking games console. This console plays xbox 360 games, some xbox games and dvds.
Because this Games console has a hard Drive, you have an onscreen account with all your information on about previously played and completed games. You can also add pictures of your family so you have a family photo album
The graphics of the games are brilliant. One would think also that the graphics in games to come would be even better.

Advantages: Next Gen Console. Amazing Graphics. Xbox Live Disadvantages: Price of games. Range Of Games
At first I wasnt interested in getting an Xbox 360. Having already got a xbox and Playstation 2. Then I saw the Fifa Road to The World Cup game and it made me want the console as the game was exclusive!! (the game was rubbish by the way)
I am so glad we got one. We got ours in January and purchased the full system, even though we were offered the core system we decided to wait until we could get the full version.
Main reasons being you get ...

The new box Review ofMicrosoft Xbox 360by
enigmatic4ever
Advantages: Excellent graphics Disadvantages: Makes a noise, and crashes often
Having bought the xbox when it came out we knew that to play Halo 3 when its released we would have to purchase the 360. Probabaly one of the best things we done in a sense.
The graphics are far outstanding compared to the old xbox and faster too. We have a driving game for it and its quite simply unreal. Blink and you'll miss where your going, but the graphics for it are almost lifelike. We have found that with this game it does tend to crash often ...

XBOX 360 Review by Vaza
INTRODUCTION
The Microsoft XBOX 360 is a Next-Generation console that aims to satisfy the Hardcore gamer, the console is not as “easy-to-use” as the Nintendo Wii. It’s main competitor is the PlayStation 3, which currently is at a very high price-point and is worse than the XBOX in many ways. XBOX 360 games have better graphics and a large library of games, whereas PS3 has worse graphics because the developers haven’t ...

...for a certain number of Microsoft Points each. This is a great feature as it allows you access to games that you may have forgotten about. For example I used to play Speedball 2 as a kid and absolutely loved it. Just recently this game was released on the arcade so I dowloaded it and could enjoy and relive my childhood gaming memories again. For games you cannot go wrong with the Xbox 360. It has brilliant developer support and things are only going ...

The new slick curvey design that micro soft had intergrated into the new 360 makes the hole machine alot more cooler and represents itself in a hole new way of attracting attention from customers willing to pay the prices that the xbox was being sold at.
The xbox 360 itself has got great visual aspects and the graphics ...
