Title of review Excellent Product
What are the strengths? I got a great deal for my Xbox 360 at www.thefreescene.co.uk basically 100% Free!

The console is absolutely phenomenal! The graphics are superb and the gameplay is just something else. In terms of games, my personal recommendations are The Darkness and Gears of War. This console is a must-have, especially for the upcoming Halo 3!
What are the weaknesses? Its price. Get a decent deal at www.thefreescene.co.uk for basically nothing! The new craze in the UK and USA
Summary If you like video games and want to play the much-anticipated Halo 3 and Grand Theft Auto 4 then you need an Xbox 360.

Review by Ben, submitted 13/03/06

How long have you used the product? 1-3 months
Which similar products have you used? I also have a PS2 but I couldn't wait for the PS3 so I got this now. I'm not disappointed. It is reliable, attractive, blah blah blah - the main thing is the graphics. Even without HDTV, they are obviously better, but with it - wow. It's impossible to say just how realistic the games are now. Only downside is that it's quite expensive at the moment, as are the games - when the PS3 comes down it will probably halve in price. If you can afford it, you should get it.

Title of review Fabulous, but maybe wait for PS3
What are the strengths? - Graphics are out of this world
- Very stable system
- Attractive box
What are the weaknesses? - Price will probably drop massively after PS3 launch
- Expensive games
Summary If you have to buy new technology, or have money to burn, this is a good machine. More casual gamers should wait to see how the PS3 compares, as they will save money as well.
