Has nothing on it thatI can't get somewhere else and better cept maybe Shadow Complex. So it's a poor console in my opinion.

Great console. It's satisfied all my gaming needs this gen for only $300. It was a great value for my money.

this guy hit the nail on the head. he just forgot to mention that the X360 is now more expensive since the PS3 price drop, since wifi is free on the PS3 and a ridiculous $100 on the X360, and still works pretty bad even with the added expense. plus bluetooth.

You don't need Wifi, and bluetooth is doesn't do anything worthwhile.

It's biggest fault is the hardware failure. That just can't be justified at all.

It's just lucky that they were able to overcome that with an extended warranty, a strong stable to games and an outstanding online service.

Great games, great downloadable games, best console for WRPG's, online, comfortable controller, achievements, installing games to HDD = all good.

Unreliability and rip-offs in the long run compared to the PS3 (Buying a 2nd console, XBL, various accessories make it over twice as expensive as the PS3 in my case) = not good.

Out of the three, it's the main gaming console, online service is top notch, features are unmatched, and it's better than the original Xbox. I would recommend to anyone if they don't have one already.

Decent console with a greedy company's coporate philosophy holding it back from being great.

It has the best games available and large amount of them. The best contoller I have ever used and the best online. The hardware is junk but one of my friends bought a new one and it is silent and does not get hot so I am hoping that the hardware will be better now. It is the console that got me back into video games.

Great system if not for overpriced accessories and RROD, which are kinda the only reasons stopping me from buying one.

What part of "best console this gen if you ask me" doesn't sound like an opinion? In a thread where YOU ask us to state our thoughts about the 360 of course everyhting we say is an opinion. :|

wow, fanboys come out in full force in a topic like this huh? Did saying that make you feel better?

so what if Im a fanboy? am I lying? plus, the guy that quoted me about bluetooth, "who cares about bluetooth?" what do I do if I don't want to use the headset that comes with the system? oh, thats right, nothing, since without bluetooth there is no alternative. or, what if i get the arcade or premium versions? looks like I have to buy my own $60 headset, don't I?

The 360 does have a great game lineup, Im not denying that. As far a software is concerned, the 360 has a great lineup of exclusives, (even if many of them technically aren't exclusives) and while its debatable, they probably have the advantage on that category. but the 360 just pales with hardware in comparison to the PS3. And I'm not saying the PS3 is better either, i think the 360 is a great system. but in my eyes, it's not worth the price tag.

and by the way, I don't own either system. I have a wii, and love it, so I'm making this argument from the 3rd person perspective. I play neither, I own neither, but doing research has led me to this conclusion.

You actually are.

The 360 isn't more expensive than the PS3.

Good Controller, Bad Fan Base, Live's alright, Nice Selection of Downloadable Games, Poor Hardware.

Overall good system.

just like the Wii and the PS3.
