Microsoft Makes A Come-Back

Power:

The X-Box 360 finds itself in between it's competitors on some things, CPU is one of them. The X-Box 360 features 3 symmetrical cores running at 3.2 GHz.

Graphics:

The X-Box 360 finds itself in the middle again. Not as good as the PS3's Blu-Ray but better than the Wii. Producing some very nice visuals.

Features:

Most of the X-Box 360's features that mean much at all are online. Leaving the fact that it can play movies in HD with a special adapter the only major thing.

          

 

 

Online:

Here's where the X-Box 360 takes off on it's own surpassing both it's competitors. No in between stuff here. It uses X-Box Live which contains, Arcade, demos, videos, and miscellaneous free content. X-Box Live is much more than just a service for online gaming.

Quality:

Just when it was sounding so good we had to drop the quality bomb. Yes, it's quality isn't so hot. At launch there was a 50% chance of an X-Box 360 crashing prematurely, now it's a 33% chance, still not near the comfort zone for most consumers.

Price:

The XBox 360 comes in 3 different packages. The 256MB hardrive Arcade unit costs $200, the 20GB hardrive unit costs $300, and the 120GB hardrive Elite unit costs $400.

Controller:

The controller isn't really lacking, but in some ways it is. The X-Box 360 controller is wireless like it's competitors, but unlike it's competitors it does not have tilt control or motion sensativity period. The only real plus is that it is extremly light weight making it easier on you for long term play or if you find yourself in a finger frenzied moment.
