Advantages: Cheap, good quality, excellent game play

Disadvantages: Noisy

Bought my console nearly a year ago for just £130 with a game included, brilliant price. Have enjoyed it immensely since, with many hours of fun from it. Had heard problems of the dreaded 'ring of death' before purchase, never encountered this, and it seems as though on the newer edition ones that this problem has been sorted out. Only slight compalint I would have is that the console is very noisy when turned on due to the fan inside it keeping it cool. Makes it not enjoyable to watch DVDs on, as it becomes hard to hear, not noticable when playing games as much as oncentration levels are higher. Xbox live costs £40 a year which is a lot but well worth it if you have friends to play against regularly, as I do. However the PS3 provides this for free, and also gives a fully wireless connection, however it is vastly more expensive.

Summary: Good value for money compared to rivals is best on market
