Here the decisive reasons for me for my former department incl. Some of the positive points that are struck me.
+ Powerful
+ Very low power consumption with the new "Jasper" variant (compared to PS3)
+ Excellent image quality
+ Plays almost all video formats from (including Divx and co.)
+ Very robust controller and to which he is also perfectly in the hand
+ Mulitplatformtitel who come out for PS3 u. 360 see on the box of generally better
+ Perfect u. Stutter online gameplay.
+ Fast drive
+ Large hard disk to making all games install (I would not recommend this to the elite)
+ Low load times
+ Low price ('when you see the price you get doubts about the console, but you will be overwhelmed)
+ You have the opportunity to while playing his own music through the console to listen.
+ HDMI
+ Controller can also be used on PC
+ Is it possible to connect with Windows computers.
+ Future-proof (eg project "Natal", Twitter, Facebook ... etc ...)
+ Interchangeable Facaplate
Now we come to the Contras
- The high-speed DVD drive will not play if you installed very quickly undoing, as you listen to the power of the drive stupidly.
- No Wi-Fi, but this does not bother me because I Wi-out is too slow and I go with the box into the net on my Lappi.
- Online games Costs, advantages and disadvantages. While it is evident a truly exemplary online experience, but who like to pay (seize it yet. 35Euro for 12 months is not acceptable)
MHH, in itself strikes me now nothing else positive / negative one, except perhaps the one or the other Note:
1. Load the Xbox as any other electronic equipment room to breathe
2. Who the box is too loud, can also install its games to the hard drive, thereby reducing the volume tremendously.
3. every person who owns a little mind reels Xbox just like the WII and all other consoles not if it is still in operation, of course knows that the DVDs scratched
CONCLUSION:
I have the 360 (new electric saving Jasper version) now half a year and had no problems with it, although I take almost every weekend in my backpack with my friend and these are, after all, about 60min / train ride change included, so for me makes it very robust. I go get regularly new games from abroad and still have some fun with it.
I can therefore warmly recommend any good conscience and wish to express a strong buy recommendation!
