The big difference between Microsofts Xbox 360 Elite and the previous incarnation of the Xbox 360, which is still on sale, at a lower price, is the colour - its gone from pristine white to dark black. Otherwise the case looks the same, but the inside...

It seems like a very long time since I reviewed the Xbox 360 . In fact Microsoft's second console has been with us for nearly two years - it launched in the UK on 2nd December 2005, and I can still remember sitting up all night making sure that I had the...

With worldwide sales tallying over 10 million units since its release a year an a half ago, Microsofts Xbox 360 platform is poised to overtake its predecessor. Already, the adoption rate of Microsofts online gaming/media service, Xbox Live, has sur...
Elegant design looks stylish in most entertainment setups. Extensive digital media capabilities. Excellent games library. Robust online community. Powerful 3D graphics.
Like the original Xbox 360, the Elite generates a considerable amount of noise and heat. Console still lacks internal Wi-Fi. Power supply is way too bulky. No internal high-definition optical drive.
Even though the Xbox 360 Elite wont sway current owners to upgrade, its impressive feature set and strong online community make it the high-powered console to own...

The Xbox 360 Elite is a solid system worth owning, but only if you can take advantage of its features – and if you do not currently own an Xbox 360 system. If you currently have an Xbox 360, then you will want to pass on the upgrade as there are onl...
