Xbox 360 sets a new pace for digital entertainment. More than just a cutting-edge game system, Xbox 360 also integrates high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital music, photos, and online connectivity into one sleek, small tower, and in the process puts true Next-Gen power right at your fingertips.  | | Xbox 360, shown with wireless controller, is a sleek, customizable gaming and entertainment system | Under the Hood
Xbox 360 is much smaller than its predecessor--it measures approximately 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs 7.7 lbs. It's powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz. It also carries a custom ATI graphics processor loaded with 10 MB of embedded DRAM, 48-way parallel floating-point dynamically scheduled shader pipelines and Unified shader architecture. This is powerful enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games in standard TV definition, and even better thanks to built-in support for HDTV 1080i televisions. It also supports the widescreen 16:9 format. The unit has a 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM drive, which plays both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out of the box. For game-save and media storage, users can choose between the detachable and upgradeable 60GB hard drive, or a separately sold 64MB flash Memory Unit. Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward-compatible with part of the existing Xbox game library. Control your Gameplay
Xbox 360 uses a refined button layout for its controllers. Back and Start buttons sit at the center of the controller and between them is a new Xbox Guide button, which instantly takes the user to the Xbox 360 user interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos and songs, and more. The black and white buttons of the first Xbox controllers have been replaced with new shoulder buttons placed above the left and right triggers. Xbox 360 can accommodate up to four wireless controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to use for wired controllers or for streaming your digital media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows XP-based PC. Microsoft has also created a video-conferencing camera, sold separately, that will work with the system.  | | Xbox 360 can manage your games, your online friends, and your personal digital library | 
The Media Experience
All Xbox 360 titles can be played in either standard or high-definition resolution in 16:9 widescreen, with anti-aliasing for smoother graphics. Game designers will be able to take advantage of the system's multi-channel surround sound. The Xbox 360's digital media allows users to supplement any game's music from tracks in their own personal library. Go Live
A built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their system to a broadband connection for access to Xbox Live. The Xbox Live Silver Membership included with the console lets anyone create a Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat live with voice chat, and connect to the Xbox Live Marketplace to buy expansions, maps, and other digital items for your games. You can also update to a Xbox Live Gold Membership at anytime for even more benefits. The separately sold wireless adapter supports the common 802.11a, -b, and -g standards.

360 bundle=good buy |
Well, so far I've had a good experience with my Xbox 360. Just like a lot of other people who have purchased, or have thought of buying one, I wasvery worried about getting the damned Red Ring of Death. On the first day I got it, I went on to play on it with my family for over 14 hours (no joke) and not a single problem with it. This Xbox 360 does not have the new chipset, which is set to come out later in 2009, but this one seems to have decreased the chance, if not completely eliminated the chance of getting the Red Ring. My Xbox 360 is usually on for more than 5 hours a day and it seems to run perfectly. I heard that the main reason for the overheating problem was caused by the spinning game disc, so to avoid that, I downloaded the NXE ("New Xbox Experience", an update that allows you to install your games on to the Xbox 360's hard drive disk.) Gameplay on the 360 is going very well for me.
The only problem I'm having is signing into Xbox Live and connecting my computer to my Xbox (it's been over a month since I've had it, and I still can't get it to work consistently. I don't know if this is a common or uncommon problem). I can sometimes connect to live gameplay, but I can't create my own account, so instead I just use my friendly neighboor's account. |

The problem with bundles |
Mind you, I'm writing this as an adult who likes to play video games with his kids.
We've been holding off on buying a console until our kids were at least 6 (and I had to do some serious convincing for my wife to allow it this early). Let's be honest and admit that the X-Box 360 was as much for me as the kids. I was happy to see a bundle that came with two games, one of which was a Lego title. My kids love Legos and they ended up getting the Legos Star Wars Complete saga as well.
I can't speak highly enough of the Indiana Jones Lego game. It is a fun title for adults and kids alike. The violence is confined to lego pieces being broken apart, so it is appropriate for children. If you're a fan of the movies or Legos, you will enjoy the game. Every level has puzzles to complete that are intriguing, but not overly difficult.
I'm not a huge fan of the Kung Fu Panda title. Only one person can play at a time, which is not great for households with multiple kids. The storyline is very linear as well. However, this is to be expected from bundles - you get one good title and one title that is filler. |
