New XBOX 360 Out In July 2010

I had one of the original XBOX 360 consoles before the days of HDMI.
Time for a new one I thought with HDMI, black in colour and a bigger hard drive.
Console is really great but makes a fair amount of noise.
Now a week after my purchase I see a new one is coming out next month which is smaller and quieter in operation and looks more elegant when on its side.
Back to this one.
Worked first time with no issues hooked up to my 1080p TV via my Sony AMP and HDMI (Note, HDMI cable is NOT provided so order a Amazon one the same time).
Unit comes with two controllers and one wired headset.
The first remote I tried was not paired with the XBOX, perhaps the other one was, so I had to press the connect button on the remote and console to get them to hook up.
Being a keen energy watcher and for those who care, the console in standby uses 1.7 watts of power which is about £1.61 a year.
In operation this value is between 50 and 90 watts depending on what the console is up to.
HD 1080p movies in via your internet connection and Microsoft Zune can also be watched on this console and after a 7Gb download of Xanadu I must admit in being impressed with the picture quality and Dolby Digital 5.1 sound (Current consoles only support Dolby Digital Sound but perhaps the new model will do more?).
At the current price with two controllers and Forza Motorsports 3 I think I made a good purchase. |

| I bought this XBOX360 and I love it. A very good console and with the 250GB of hard drive is even better. |
This is a must

Starting with the game!
The Forza 3 game packaged in this bundle is absolutely superb. There are many, many tracks to race around, some of which are very complex and others are simply built for speed. There is more than enough tracks to cater for every ones style. To be honest I like them all.
Graphically playing this on a big TV is definitely the best way to get the most from the lush game graphics. Mine is a 40" full HD widescreen and the game plays superbly. I have to say I can't wait to compare Forza 3 with the PS3s Grand Turismo 5 when it comes out later this month (March 2010).
The Console itself.
The XBox 360, for me, is a surprisingly good bit of kit. The controllers work well but use batteries so I might invest in one of those rechargable packs sometime in the future. In this pack you get two controllers and a substantial hard drive with the console all in a very fetching black colour. I have to confess that I'm a PC man so I'm used to the sizes of hard drives measured in terabytes these days. However the hard drive in this XBox bundle is a whopping 250Gb. This is a massive amount for a gaming console. Even my top spec PS3 doesn't reach this.
I personally think that the connecting to the internet through a wireless connection could have been made more straight forward on the XBox. Inevitably I compare the XBox to my PS3 and where the PS3 connected wirelessly immediately (literally as soon as I switched it on) with my router it took me 4 attempts over 4 separate nights to get the XBox to hook up. Admittedly this may partially have been my fault as the WEP Key for my router seemed to have some unrecognisable characters in it. But with the PS3 I never even had to worry about this. Obviously now that I've had to change my WEP key for the XBox, I've had to do it for the PS3 too.
To sum up; with only a small glitch in the XBox set up, which could have been just me, I would highly recommend this particular package of the XBox 360 as the best one out there. If you're thinking about getting an XBox... ... don't! Just get this one!
