Xbox Console - Xbox
Bundle
Christmas Gifts for men has received a
great addition in 2008, for a truly enjoyable time
spent with family in the Holidays. Just released
for the Holiday Season, Xbox 360 has been
bundled highliting its compact Xbox console,
setting a new pace for digital entertainment. The Xbox
bundle is affordable with 6 months financing - no
interest and no payments. More than just a cutting-edge
Xbox games system, Xbox 360 also
integrates high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital
music, photos, and online connectivity into one sleek, small
tower; in the process Xbox 360 puts true Next-Gen power
right at your fingertips.
Xbox
360 - Smaller and More Powerful
Xbox 360 is much smaller than its
predecessor - its only 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs
7.7 lbs. Powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three
symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz, it
also carries a custom ATI graphics
processor loaded with 10 MB of embedded DRAM,
48-way parallel floating-point dynamically scheduled shader
pipelines and Unified shader architecture. Powerful enough to
draw 500 million triangles per second. What you get are
great looking games in standard TV
definition, and even better thanks to built-in support
for HDTV 1080i televisions. It also supports the
widescreen 16:9 format.
A great gift idea this
Christmas, but be sure to order today -
top Xmas gifts always sell
out in the run up to Christmas.
Xbox 360 60GB Holiday Bundle will
sure fly off shelves. Now IN STOCK at
Amazon, with FREE Super
Saver Shipping.

Xbox
Controller Xbox 360 uses a
refined button layout for its Xbox controller. Back and
Start buttons sit at the center of the Xbox
controller and between them is a new
Xbox Guide button, which instantly takes the user
to the Xbox 360 user interface. From
there, they can check for friends online, access personal
digital content like photos and songs, and more. The black
and white buttons of the first Xbox
controller have been replaced with new
shoulder buttons placed above the left and right triggers.
Xbox 360 can accommodate up to four wireless Xbox
controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to
use for each wired Xbox
controller or for streaming your digital
media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows
XP-based PC. Microsoft has also created a
video-conferencing camera, sold
separately, that will work with the system.
Xbox
System
All Xbox games titles can be played in
either standard or high-definition resolution in 16:9
widescreen, with anti-aliasing for smoother graphics. Game
designers will be able to take advantage of the Xbox
system's multi-channel surround sound. The Xbox
360's digital media allows users to supplement any game's music
from tracks in their own personal library.
A 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM drive plays
both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out
of the box. For game-save and
media storage, you choose between detachable
and upgradeable 60GB Xbox hard drive, or a
64MB flash Memory Unit (sold separately).
Also, the hard drive will make the Xbox
360 backward-compatible for part
of the existing Xbox game library.
Xbox
Live
A built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their
system to a broadband connection for access to Xbox Live. The
Xbox Live Silver Membership included with
the Xbox console lets anyone create a
Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat
live with voice chat, and connect to the Xbox
Live Marketplace to buy expansions, maps, and
other digital items for your games. You can also update to a
Xbox Live Gold
Membership at anytime for even more benefits. The
separately sold wireless adapter supports the common 802.11a,
-b, and -g standards.

Xbox 360 Bundle Reviews
"The Lego game is actually very fun and the Kungfu panda
game reminds me of the old Spyro games on the PS2. I really
recommend you buy the Xbox 360 from Amazon if you are indeed
looking out for one, you can be sure it's a recent model from
September unlike other stores where you'd have to hunt for
them."
" Controllers are fantastic much better feeling then
PS3 controllers and have more weight to it which is a plus adds
to it's durability."
"I had a 20GB 360 about a year ago. That thing would
overheat (but not die) unless I had it in a vertical position,
angled just right so most of the bottom was unsupported. I
didn't have HD at the time and wasn't finding a lot of games
that I like so I sold it. But now that I have a big screen HD,
and many games have come out, I bought this holiday set. I
probably would have bought the Lego game by itself so this was
a treat.
I almost bought the Arcade version but knew that I'd need a
hard drive for game demos and saves.
The two games are in the same case and I almost thought they
weren't in the box! The game case is stored on the inside of
one of the walls of box. I seriously thought I got shorted the
games until I finally ripped the box apart more.
All in all this was a great purchase. I have the unit
horizontal on a table with no heat issues at all. The power
supply is orange/amber when not in use, which I thought meant
something was wrong, but it just means standby.
If you're in the market for a new 360 you'd be almost nuts to
pass this bundle up - much better than last years. The Marvel
game had last-gen graphics and the racing game was forgettable.
I can't wait to play Lego Indiana Jones!"
"I purchased this bundle late last month, It arrived on
time, no problems whatsoever. This system is amazing, more so
now that the NXE (New xbox experience) update is out, the
interface is extremely user friendly and there's so much to do
without even putting in a disc. From streaming video and music
from your pc to your xbox, downloading game demos, creating and
customising your avatars, checking out and previewing upcoming
games, movies, trailers... just to mention a few things. It'll
keep you occupied for quite some time.
For me the 60 gig hard drive is adequate, you really only get
48 or so gigs and change, but that's the case with computers on
a whole, so no real shocker there.
Anyone who would've done any research at all would know about
the RROD (red ring of death) problem that has plagued the 360
since it's release. The good news is that Microsoft has made
some adjustments with the latest batch of 360s that actually
looks quite promising. Just make sure your system was made
during the last quarter of this year. My system runs rather
quietly, I was quite surprised at that after hearing about the
360 being the noisiest system around. It does hum, but not to
the level where it distracts or is even noticable. Straight out
of the box I've laid the system horizontally and mounted it on
a stack of video cassettes so it could "breath" properly and
receive adequate ventilation, it even has a dedicated fan on at
all times. This really is a system that needs to be cared, so
before your purchase put some plans in place to ensure you
receive the longest life out of your system."
