I love this new version of the xbox 360. It is way more quiet then my old 360 and it has a cool design. The online is better then the ps3's because it has party chat, avatars you can use in some games and tells you if the persons online or not which came in handy when i tried to add my friend. So if you are looking for a console to buy your family buy this xbox 360 it also has built in wifi

love my xbox 360! however the 4gb harddrive is a joke! unless your going to save about 4 games on it AND NOTHING ELSE its pointless! your going to need a hardrive other then that its great! i know most people say ps3 is better. its not! the reliabality of both consoles is questionable. sure psn is free where you have to pay about 5 bux a month for xbox live but xbox live is better. its faster more reliable has more content. if psn subscriptions werent free we everyone would admit xbox live is way better. the only argument people have about why psn is better that xbxo live is that psn is free. ill gladly pay 5 bux a month for a better service with much better interface! i loved ps1 and felt bad about leaving sony for microsoft (like crash bandicoot) but the fact is to me the most important aspect of a game console is the online experience and xbox delivers on that end far better then sony. and when you factor in that the kinect is far more advanced that the ps move there no comparsion. with the kinect you dont even need a controller your xbox is voice actived! that ps move is just a motion controller that all. ps3 is cheaper long term and short term. but ill still take an xbox over a ps3. bc that online service is better. the controller is more comfortable unlike the smallish ps3 controller. ps3 has a blue ray player? the only way i watch movies is on xbox live download! so blue ray means nothing to me. long live xbox!

the Xbox 360 has always been very unique and no doubt cool but it has it's problems, and it also has it's strengths. I am also a PS3 owner I enjoy the PS3 wide variety of exclusives but Xbox also has very good exclusives like Gears of War and Halo. DESIGN: The Xbox 360's Design is cool and sleek but I can't get over the enormous "Power Brick". The design also has caused overheating problems, and you can't switch out the hard drive ( PS3 can ). The controller design is actually pretty good though, it's comfortable and I can play for hours straight on and my hands won't hurt, but sadly the controllers require batteries and you can only have 4 controllers on 1 system and the design is a little too sleek and if your hands get sweaty from playing your hands kinda slide off the controller. PERFORMANCE: The Xbox 360 has a very very good frame rate so games will never lag. The online performance is amazing, never laggy, and it has a large online community so you shouldn't have a problem a match or a race. Unfortunately the Xbox's durability and ability too last a while is terrible Pop-up errors, RROD, and overheating issues stand in the way. Although if you keep the area clean where the system sits you shouldn't have any overheating problems. Another issue is that Xbox 360 doesn't have a 1080 p output like it's competitor. The graphics capabilty is very strong but PS3's is slightly better. EXCLUSIVES: Xbox 360 exclusives are mostly War based and don't have a lot of variety when it comes to the exclusives, but exclusives like Gears of War and Halo are great. But sadly I feel like Forza Motrosports is just a rip-off of Gran Turismo. VALUE: The value of this system isn't very good, it doesn't come with Wi-Fi, you have to pay $50 for online, and this Xbox only comes with 4gb of space ( but for 50 more dollars you can get a 160gb PS3 ). OVERALL: Overall the Xbox 360 is perfect for War game lovers and serious online players. But if your a party gamer or if you want more variety with exclusives go with PS3. I know this review is going to get a lot dislikes because of my PS3 comments but I don't care they're both GREAT systems and it would take a seriously long time of thinking to say which system is better. PROS: Fantastic online gaming, Fun exclusives, comfortable controller design, cool looking design. CONS: RROD, overheating problems, you have to buy Wi-Fi seperately, $50 just to play online.
Dude I'm not trying to start a console war, I'm just saying things that are true about the console and things that people should know. And I really don't care about Netflix or Facebook on a console I have a laptop for those kind of things.
