Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite 250 GB Matte Black Console (PAL)

The xbox 360 slim is a nice console which has been reduced in size alot from the old model. It is much more quite and has built in wifi so it can be placed anywhere in the home.
Compared to its main rival the Playstation 3 it is much lower in price by about £50-60 cheaper. It includes features such as Sky, Sky Sports, Sky movies, Twitter and facebook.(All sky items have to be paid for)
The negative side to the xbox is that of xbox live gold subscription where you can play online and access online content which is approximately £40 a year.
An average rating has been given to this product by microsoft as the Sony PS3 has free online gaming, has a built in Blu-ray player which will avoid running expenses.
All in all the PS3 is more expensive but a better asset to have for long term use.

In my opinion it is the second best gaming console in the world, PS3 only slightly better with BLU-RAY playback. The 360 has better games like HALO (not on PS3) etc. The graphics are brilliant even on SD tv. It is quiet compared to consoles like PS3 Original and Nintendo Gamecube. The only thing I am not happy about is the fact MICROSOFT didn't include a BLU-RAY drive like SONY. Overall a brilliant console and would recommend to all my friends!

The elite X-box is a great console and just as good as a PS2. I bought it off ebay,as i used to have one but unfortunately it stopped working. There are a huge variety of games available to buy new or 2nd hand for this console available at great prices on-line and also in gaming shops. The graphics of the games are brilliant for the hard drive it entails.

I would recommend the x-box elite console to all**

spot on graphics , great multi player options and great games way beyond my old playstation 2 which was good - takes game consoles into another dimension .

Couldn't decide between buying this or a playstation 3 - 2 nephews had these and simply thought it was the bees knees - would recommend to anyone .

Bought a secondhand unit as it was all boxed and like brand new with plenty of genuine games etc and a bargain price

i bought this because it is a collectors item and i think it looks very cool,to buy it brand new in the shops is 250 pounds and to get it with half the stuff but for 130 pounds i think is a very good deal, i like all the decorations and i like the layout i think it kicks ass compared to the 2005 20GB xbox 360 and even better its a jasper model so its guarunteed not to get the dooming red ring of death like before its happened to me and instead of getting it fixed i put it in the bin! so overall really pleased and happy that it turned up so fast :)
