Microsoft's Xbox 360 Elite (Xbox)
I bought a Xbox around two weeks ago, I bought it out of Game. It cost £260 for an Xbox 360 elite console, Kung Fu Panda, Lego Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider Underworld and an Xtra Xbox 360 White Wireless Remote! The it cost me £25 for insurance for two years! So if i get Red Rings Of Death or i break the controller etc i bring down my Xbox 360 Elite to any Game store and get a new one! So i have three years warranty because there is a one year warranty with the Xbox 360 console!

Overall
I really enjoy playing the Xbox 360, it doesn't have as many features in it compared to the PS3, but there are more games for the Xbox 360 and they are cheaper! Xbox live is better than PS3 online but PS3 online is free and Xbox Live cost £40 for 12 Months!
