The Xbox 360
First off, the Xbox 360 is not the best console ever, not even the best console of the current generation. The Xbox 360 is the child of Microsoft, and spawn of the first Xbox, which lost misrably to the PS2 in the last console war. It was released in 2005, a full year before the PS3 and Wii, to give it an adavntage over the other two consoles. That strategy worked, but it meant the Xbox 360 was rushed. The hardware was quickly thrown together, resulting in a faliure rate unthinkably high. One in every three Xbox 360s gets the Red Ring of Death, or better know as RROD. The 360 breaks a lot, right? So, I can just send it back and get it repiared, right? Wrong! If you want to take the chance of sending the Xbox 360 back to Microsoft, be my guest. But, they don’t replace your Xbox 360. They take about 3 to 4 months to fix it, and send it back. If they can’t fix it, they send you another fixed Xbox 360, not a new one. That sucks, right? But what else can be that bad? Xbox Live! What, Xbox Live? That’s the best online service ever! Wrong! First of all, Live costs $50 a year! $50!
Why you should buy an Xbox 360:
- Great selection of games
- Very comfy controller
- Xbox LIVE
- Games in Full HD
Why you shouldn’t buy an Xbox 360:
- Xbox LIVE is $50 a year
- No or small hard drive
- Unreliable
- Terrible customer support
To buy or not to buy. You be the judge. Tell me what you think, post your comments!
I totally agree with you, man! The Xbox sucks, especially with games like Galo, excuse me, Halo. PS3 all the way. I just can’t wait to get my hands on MSG4!!! PS3 ftw!!!
