Microsoft Xbox 360 Pro System

Microsoft's second gaming console had a sloppy release, but eventually rose to the top of the next generation. The XBox 360's main competition is the Playstation 3, and while the PS3 is a great system as far as capability and graphics, the online gameplay and amount of games doesn't match the XBox 360 yet. The Wii is a good gaming console, but since it's aimed at a different market I won't be comparing it to the XBox 360. Graphics. They're the first thing that you notice in a game and while the importance of them is exaggerated at times, they help with immersion and ultimately lead to a better gaming experience. The XBox 360 isn't quite as strong as the ...  Read the complete review

--Intro-- Being such a massive fan of the first XBox, i preordered the 360 Pro (or Premium as it was known at release) as soon as i could. It was delivered on the morning of launch day and i was ready to go! -- Cost -- Currently, the XBox 360 Pro has a RRP of £170, however, this model is being phased out to be replaced by the Elite console. The Elite is black (as opposed to the white Pro or Arcade), has a larger hard drive and has an RRP of £199.99. In comparison to other consoles on the market, £170 offers fantastic value and i'll go into detail below. --Initial setup and box contents-- Opening the ...  Read the complete review

The Xbox360 is one of the most well known in consoles but is it really as good as people make it seem well in my opinion i don't think so, although a matter of opinion the Xbox360 may be one of the most well known but in the end it can cost more than it Seems. Problems - 1. One problem with the Xbox360 is the Wireless adapter surely if the Wii and the PlayStation 3 can both have in-built wireless then surely the X box can also have this but they made it so you had to but an extra piece of hardware costing £50 this is, in my opinion a way to get more money out of you. 2. Microsoft also charges you to play online by getting membership cards ...  Read the complete review

The Xbox 360 is Microsoft's current gaming system, depending on whether you believe the rumours or not, it's soon to be taken over by the Xbox 720. I've never actually seen any official announcements from Microsoft, so for now the Xbox 360 is still the on top. We've had the 360 for about 18 months now, and although we had one console which suffered from the 'Red Ring of Death' (where all the error lights on the front go red and the Xbox dies), it was replaced by Gamestation with a brand new console, and so far we've had no problems with this one. What can the 360 do? Well obviously it's main function is as a games console. There are a huge ...  Read the complete review

In February 2007 I decided to buy an Xbox360 'Premium'(now called Pro) system after sampling the Xbox Live feature at a friend's house. There was a guarantee of a slew of exciting looking games arriving in the coming year so I bit the bullet and purchased an Xbox 360! My first impression unboxing was what in the world is this power supply for? The power brick for the Xbox 360 was MASSSIVE, and very heavy. Anyway I kept on digging through the packing and came across the main console. A sleek looking white modern machine which looked like it had been designed by Apple. I threw aside the box with Xbox Live headset and cables and plugged in the ...  Read the complete review
