Under the Hood
 |
| Xbox 360, shown with wireless controller, is a sleek, customizable gaming and entertainment system |
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 this console package includes a 120GB hard drive. 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.

Customer Reviews
Third time's the charm...
The Xbox 360 Elite was the second unit I purchased and despite a service return to Microsoft, I did receive a new unit and had no problems at the time of this review. The 120 GB hard drive and 30 feet wireless control
use are plenty... the InterCooler unit was extra but I was encouraged to buy one. Every 360 game I purchased I was able to play and many of the original Xbox titles play well (Halo and Halo 2 are wonderful). I give 2 thumbs up for the `Elite.
Xbox 360 Elite
This product is simply amazing! when i took it out of the box i was very impressed on the black matte look much better than polished (it get's a lot of finger print's) also the game library is huge. Xbox live is genius I mean I can download bio shock demo while kicking but play halo 3 online. system is not very loud yes it does make some racket but you wont notice it during regular activities. it does not over heat my friend and I played halo 3 all night long for 15 hour's the first day I got it. just elevate it on it's box that it come in and make sure a ceiling fan is on to keep air flow going graphic's are amazing on my 47 inch LCD wide screen 1080p HDTV very realistic on halo 3 over all I say it was very much worth the money for all of it this is the best bang for you're buck.
Best experience online
