Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel

Advantages: Very robust and firm wheel. wireless
Disadvantages: MAY STRIKE SOME AS "CHEAP" LOOKING

...as to be able to fit your hand easily between them. In the cnetre of the wheel you will find the Xbox button and the ring of light that will bring up the dashboard in the same way the controller would. The wheel also has a chromo effect bottom to the wheel and makes it very appealing to look at and adds to its durable feel. There is also an access port for the headsets for Xbox live gaming allowing the headset to be used without the wire trailing over a large distance. The wheel itself runs off batteries (either battery pack or rechargeable) and also comes with an AC/DC pack. A lap rest is also incorporated into the wheel and it actually does fit relatively comfortably in most people lap and is easy to use when driving. TABLE ATTACHEMENT: The wheel unit can be attached to a table if you prefer rather than having it on your lap...

Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite - The User's Review

Advantages: Brilliant graphics, HDMI Output, Excellent Games Library, Xbox Live
Disadvantages: Expensive Games, Xbox Live Fee, Lack of Blu-Ray, Hardware Errors

...After hearing how good Microsoft's next-gen gaming console was, I decided to invest. And what a good choice that was. I purchased an Xbox 360 Elite last year and how glad I am that I did. Pro's: - Powerful graphic engine - Brilliant display at 1080p Full-HD (HDMI) - Brilliant line-up of games - Excellent online (Xbox Live) system Con's: - Games pricey at £40-50 each* - Xbox Live Subscription at £40 per year** - Lack of a Blu-Ray drive unlike its competitor, Sony PlayStation 3*** - Prone to crashes and hardware errors**** *New games are hard to find at prices lower than £40, which is a lot of money on top of what you pay for the console itself **Xbox Live is a very good service offering a full friends messaging system and a wide range of services such as Game Demo's and Arcade games but considering the Nintendo Wii...

Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite - Best console ever made!

Advantages: Looks good/Good storage/Great games/Great graphics/can play films and videos/music/lots lots more.
Disadvantages: Very expensive accesories, especially the wireless adaptor

...the reason why I never even considered the PS3 when I was choosing my next-gen console, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night knowing that I would never get to play such games as Halo3 or Fable. The xbox live marketrplace is a great feature, it alows you to download themes, demos movie trailers,game trailers and even whole movies. Ofcourse some of this will come at a cost, which in most cases is a complete rip off if you are only buying things such as gamer pictures. This is the only real problem with the xbox 360, the price of the accesories :S. As with many things, microsoft liek to charge excessive prices for simple accesories and force you to buy their £60 versions by mnaking the cheaper ones not work. Aside from the accesory prices though The xbox 360 Elite is the greatest console out and I highly reccomend it, o and I forgot to...

Xbox 360 elite

Advantages: Large hard drive, HD 1080p and HDMI cables
Disadvantages: Small handheld controller

...on Xbox LIVE. Xbox 360 HDMI cable: The HDMI lets you get HD video (up to 1080p) and multichannel surround sound, all from one cable. This is what HDMI cables were designed for with their 'gas' technology' as long as you are able to produce 1080p full HD. With the Xbox 360 elite this is true. Xbox LIVE Silver Membership and subscription to Xbox LIVE Gold are additional features which allow more virtual world scenarios and other further experiences, naturally with a small fee. All in all this is as the name suggests 'elite' in the game console market, and certainly the best Microsoft has to offer. The games run smoothly and you really do have alot of storage space. So if you are after really good console with all the works and price is not an issue, then this would naturally be a good choice. Moreover, I would recommend...

Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Wireless Headset

Advantages: Long Lasting, Small
Disadvantages: Must Be Charged

...Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Wireless Headset This Xbox 360 wireless headset is definitely a long lasting microphone, which is quite durable. One thing which I like about this headset is that its much more comfortable to wear compared to the original Xbox 360 Headset. Another advantage about this headset is that its wireless so you don't need to bother with any wires. The only disadvantage about this product is that it has to be charged. The battery life for this wireless Headset is about 8 hours and it takes about 3 hours to charge fully. You can use this wireless headset to listen and talk to your friend on Xbox Live. I paid £35 for my wireless headset and it was well worth the money. I recommend this product to all potential buyers....

Xbox 360 Elite

Advantages: Powerfull
Disadvantages: Erm....... None!

...Power is the first thing that comes to mind when i think of the xbox 360 elite, it has a huge 120GB hard disk drive and the graphics seem to run alot smoother that the original xbox 360 for some reason. I had the original xbox 360 but that died on me about 2 weeks after buying, microsoft seem to have sorted out these little issues that kept crashing the system. The elite has a HDMI port which means you can connect this straght into your HD socket on your tv, I have a 42 inch plasma and i thought the graphics was good on my old Xbox 360 through a scart lead but once i plugged this in i was blown away! The graphics are amazing, perfect detail can be seen on the games that you play. You get the HDMI cable with this system too which is just great as they are quite exspensive to buy, you also get one black wirless controller and a headset...

Xbox Live - It's another world

Advantages: Superb experience
Disadvantages: Its not free

...Introduction Xbox live is the name of the Microsofts online service for the Xbox 360. This service gives you access to a vast array of content, some of it free, and some of it at a price. There are 2 types of membership available, namely Gold and Silver. Silver is a free membership which is available to all Xbox owners. Silver allows you access to most promotional video and feature content via the 360 dashboard but does not allow you to play games online. So what is so special then about Xbox live? The Playstation Network is free, the Wii gives free access to its limited catalogue of online games and seeing as the Silver Xbox Live is also free, why bother paying what seems like a high amount for the Gold membership. These were my own personal sentiments when I first bought my Xbox. Coming from the Wii, I was horrified...

Review of Microsoft Official Xbox 360 - Xbox Live Gold Membership Card

Xbox 360 Elite - Good Enough

Advantages: * Greater Memory Capacity * Enhanced sound and graphics capabilities * Sleek black finish
Disadvantages: * Red Ring Returns * Fan Overheats

...In my opinion, the Xbox 360 elite is the complete package when it comes to entertainment. However, when you pay in the region of £200 plus for any console you expect a flawless system, this is not the case with the Xbox 360 Elite. The first noticeable difference from Microsofts first installement in the 360 series is the colour. The new polished black matte finish is definately a striking feature and this itself sets it apart from its predecessors. On a more internal note the gaming system has been improved to support higher graphical and sound capabilities and the hardrive has been expanded so users can potentially store 120gb worth of photos, music, films and games. While the games that can be bought for the 360 are normally a spectacle on their own, nothing compares to the online LIVE feature that was present on the original...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite

Xbox 360 Elite

Advantages: Large 120GB Hard Drive, HDMI, Excellent online service
Disadvantages: Noisy at times, runs hot

...I have previously owned two Xbox 360 Premium consoles in the past. I decided to purchase again with the release of Halo 3. Overall I\'m very happy with the Elite. Its main advantage over the Premium is the larger 120GB hard drive. Compared to buying a console and the larger hard drive it represents good value for money. If you want to download lots of demos and not have to worry about lack of space then the bigger drive is definitely worth it. If you just want HDMI then that should now be available on the Premium console. Another thing that I have found with the past two consoles that I have owned run rather loud. The Elite seems to be slightly less noisy but this still depends on what DVD drive you get in your system. Unfortunately it is down to luck which one you\'ll get. You can identify the DVD drive manufacturer but this would be...
