"The Xbox 360 Elite is definitely a big player in the games console industry. It has kept up to date with all the latest technologies – anyone that has played gears or war 2 can agree that the graphics are incredible. However its online where the Xbox 360 Elite really makes its mark. You would expect quite high standards from the Xbox online as it is made by Microsoft and needless to say they have not disappointed. Playing online could not be any simpler – 2 clicks and you’re in a game. With Nintendo’s Wii currently captivating many gamers with its motion controller it was not surprising that eventually Xbox would come up with one of their own. Nicknamed project “Natal” the users can fully interact with the game...without a controller. The time of the controller is soon coming to an end."

"Ah the Xbox 360, what a fantastic bit of kit this thing is. Microsoft really have put together a terrific games console, and the choice of games is staggering too.
There is just one reason that it falls short of the 5* rating it really deserves, and that is the reliability of it. In 20 months my Xbox 360 Elite has been sent back to MS for repair twice, and granted they've fixed it for free each time, but the fact that it's needed repair twice is an indication of a problem.
If you're lucky, and get a box that just works and works and works then you will not regret buying this as it'll bring hours of enjoyment. Just beware that you may switch it on one day and have 3 red lights blinking at you, and a trip to Frankfurt calling out to the console."
