The Microsoft Xbox 360

Microsoft's Xbox 360 is the second version of the Xbox released by Microsoft. Termed as a 6th generation gaming console, it has some seriously cool features, as well as an updated look that is sure to set gizmo freaks drooling.

Actually Microsoft is putting a lot of research into developing the console and this is demonstrated by the fact they are constantly upgrading the device. The latest upgrade was in 2007. The Xbox 360 was originally unveiled on MTV giving you an idea of the target audience that Microsoft wanted to capture.



The first thing you notice about the Microsoft Xbox 360 is it's shape. It looks like some sleek alien creature or piece of technology out of the future. You can see the gamepad that comes with it. Notice it doesn't have any cables and this is sure to be a blessing to us old gamers who have struggled for years with twisted cables.

If you like to customize your gaming pads, and you dont' want to be stuck with white, no problem! You can find them in just about any color that you want including black and a printed blue.

The Microsoft Xbox 360 is built of playing on High Definition TV. It also has an HDMI output. Of course, the worth of any console is the range of top games that play on it. And as the seasons have come and gone, the Microsoft Xbox 360 has developed a great range of games that are really worth playing including Call of Duty 4.

It comes with a 20 GB hard drive. It's quite unlike the hard drive of a standard PC. Rather it's more detachable like the Sony VAIO battery. One can imagine that this makes the unit substantially lighter, and that's very important.

The front of the unit has two USB controllers and is also where you can insert the media to carry your saved games to say your friends house. You can use the USB ports to plug in your MP3 player so that you can have your favorite rock music playing in the background while you smash up some cars :D
