...latest Xbox. His old Xbox was still alive and kicking. Yes, he wanted to play Halo 3 when it came out, but other than that he didn't want to acquire more "stuff".

We received the Arcade version, which is a scaled down version - no hard drive, no HD capability, doesn't come with a headset or network cable, . It, however, came with a disc with games and trail versions, which was ...
...reluctantly put away the old Xbox and put together the new Xbox. We learned, however, that we could purchase a hard drive separately. This hard drive enables you to play games that were made for the old Xbox. This backwards compatibility is a really nice feature, however, not all games are supported, unfortunately. Hubby thought about it though and he wouldn't miss his old games. With the 360, I believe the best upgrade Microsoft has made is the ... Read review

It is a great console though besides how fragile it can be. Also don't move the console around while the game ...
...are not as good. Also Xbox live is awesome. Theres so many people online that theres always someone to go against. Even if the person online disconnects or quits the game while your going against them they still lose. When I went online with my PS2 that was not the case.

Advantages: Total Multimedia Platform.
Disadvantages: It is Broken!!!

...all, I love the original Xbox , so it was a natural progression to move up to the 360. As one that likes to save money where I can, I bought my 360 second hand for a great price.
