bit-tech Shopping: Microsoft Xbox 360 Arcade System

Rating: 8

Time with product: 2

Strengths: Price, Graphics, online gameplay

Weaknesses: No hard drive, no wireless adapter built in.

Summary: I purchased this at a great price and have enjoyed every minute of playing the online games. Although...I do recommend getting the premium model as this model is pretty barebones. The graphics are great and I don't regret my purchase. Hopefully it won't die on me as I have read horror stories about this model. So good so far!

Strengths: price, HDMI output,user friendly connection

Weaknesses: no hard drive,no HD connection

Summary: I purchased this since it has an attractive price for me. I have an old HD TV without a HD input, so I have to buy the HDMI cable seperately.The performance is satisfactory since it doesn't create much heat.However, the games come with it is not very exciting.

Strengths: Cheap Price Tag,Fun For The Whole Family,An Included Arcade DiscAll You Need To Be Ready To Play

Weaknesses: No Hard Drive

Summary: If your running on a low budget , this console is here to solve your problems. It come with everything you need to start playing xbox 360. One thing thats great about the arcade system, is that it includes the latest microsoft technology so that theirs less of a chance of your system malfunctioning. Sadly, the system only includes a 512mb memory card, which limits you to what you can do on xbox live. But overall, its a great system thats good for the price. If your looking to get a next generation console for a great price, look no further.

Strengths: HDMI port

Weaknesses: none so far

Summary: Since I don't play online, I decided I didn't have a need for the hard drive. This Arcade System is exactly what I was looking for. It has the HDMI out port also, and looks great at 102" through my 1080P projector.
