About the Xbox 360 Hardware
 |
| Xbox 360, shown with separately sold wireless controller, is a sleek, customizable gaming and entertainment system. |
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 with 10 MB of embedded DRAM. This is powerful enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games on standard TVs, and even better looking ones on HDTV sets thanks to built-in support for HDTV (720p/1080i/1080p) resolutions.
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 (the optional Media Remote is sold separately). For game-save and media storage, users can choose between 64MB flash Memory Unit, or a detachable and upgradeable 20GB hard drive (sold seperately). Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward-compatible with part of the existing Xbox game library.
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 "Dashboard" interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos 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. The 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.

About Xbox 360 Games and Media
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.
About Xbox Live
A built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their system to a broadband connection for access to the new Xbox Live service. The included Silver membership lets anyone create a Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat live with voice chat (separately sold headset required), and connect to the Xbox Live Marketplace to buy and download expansions, maps, and other digital goodies for your games. Upgrading to a Gold membership adds to that online competition, game stats, demos and video chat/messaging. The separately sold wireless network adapter supports the common 802.11a, -b, and -g standards.

Customer Reviews of Xbox 360 Core Console System
No more Worries Don't worry about the technical problems. If you buy one now, microsoft is stepping up on the console issues, so these newer ones work pretty fine. Mine is working fine. And if you don't have money, then just buy this console. All you need is a memory card to save games, and amazon sells one for like $30 or less. So you spend $330, and you have all you need to start playing. If you want to play online, then go for the premium, but if you're just wanting to play games on your own free time, this is the cheaper deal for you. And don't worry, a 64MB memory card is more than enough to save games. Each game only takes like 1MB for game saves.
deadly three red ligths
I got my xbox 360 on March 2007, and it was very fun while it worked. Sometimes playing fifa 2007 online, the system crashed or the screen freezed a couple of times, and a weird noise came backwards, from the cooling fans of the console, but at that time i thougth it was nothing serious at all. One day planning to play a couple of games, i saw the 3 red fatal ligths blinking on the front ring of the system.
<
>When i looked up for a solution on microsofts webpage, it said the system had to be delivered for service repair. It was dead and cant do anymore. The defective coolings fans cause the system to overheat, and killed it.
<
>Maybe a system that worths to much should flawlessly work at least for 12 months. It should have better cooling system, better running processor and more working lifetime.
<
>Im seriously planning to sell this defective system and get back to basics, PS2 or Nintendo WII.
Poor customer service
I love playing online with the XBox Live. It is the best. But my system started to freeze up in the middle of play. Calling customer service was a waste of time. Twenty questions was all they ever wanted to do. Realized later this was a stall tactic, because they knew what was going wrong with the machine, but they didn't want to deal with it. When I finally got the three red rings of death, they screwed up the service several times. They insist on sending their own box for returns. Well, 45 days into my request for repair, I am still waiting for the BOX! The repair they tell me will be 4-6 weeks. I can't even get a box. Plus they already charged my credit card for the repairs. After they announced all repairs were going to be covered free.
