The 360 Delivers
Customer Rating: 




Microsoft's Xbox 360 is the current generations answere to gaming glory. The graphics are great (flicking that back switch to HD for the first time speechless), the new interface is fair enough, and the online (Xbox Live) is top notch.
Gamers can pay a measly fee each month to join thousands of gamers across the globe. 360 features amazing titles full of quality. I did not say variety as many games this generation seem to stick to the shooting genre. Players have the option to customize avatars and have a 'gamerscore' to keep track of their 'achievements'. Honestly without Xbox Live this system isn't performing as well as the other two consoles out (PS3, Wii). The key to its success are between the epic titles, and online interface. The games aren't even as great without online, so you are receiving only a fraction of the gamin goodness.
To sum this up, the 360 has awesome games, great controllers, and a stunning online. The 360 offers one to fight a horde of aliens, storm a beach as a World War 2 soldier, or take up the ring as a wrestler, become an athlete, or even a knight. Netflix is also an optional feature for a small fee, and more arcade games then one could dream. The system often gets the 'red ring of death', but honestly what sounds better? Getting a great system with games that are worth your money, and when it breaks (from RRoD) return it and receive a new one free?! Or buy another console and play some mediocre to decent games, and not get your full moneys worth for reliability?!
