What's the 360's worst flaw?

I forgot to mention how flimsy the controllers are. They break so easily, you drop them once and the analog or the bumpers don't work, that's ridiculous and unacceptable. I could slam my ps2 controllers on the floor over and over and they would not break, I have dropped those things a lot and they still work perfect. I got a 360 controller on my birthday and when I opened my package it just broke.By the way I take very good care of my stuff, I am not rough with them at all.

2. The wireless controllers, the wireless PS3 controllers come with a cord and you can just plug the cord in and charge the controller whenever the battery runs dead. I do not want to spend an extra 20 dollars just to do this with my xbox controllers so i stick with wired controllers and sometimes i will use my wireless if i feel like wasting batteries.

Other than those 2 things i say it is a perfect experience for me anyways.

maybe this was different at some point in time but if i'm correct every 360 comes with a ONE controller which just so happens to be wireless. So in that sense, wouldn't that mean at some point you went on and BOUGHT a wired controller for around 15 bucks when you could've got two rechargable batteries for 10.

well you are mistaken only the newer consoles come with wireless controllers

The only problem I have is the fact that you have to buy gold for every account on your system, it really should be 50$ for the 4 accounts on your X-box not 200$ for the 4.

I have never had a problem with my batteries and well I only seem to have to charge them about every other month or so. I bought a 4 energizer + charge at save-martone day (heck about a year before I bought an X-box) for my digital camera only was about 8 or 9$ bucks great for the price.

For me it is 2 things

1. They charge you to play online although the quality of service is better they are a huge company and can prolly let us use the service for free.

2. The wireless controllers, the wireless PS3 controllers come with a cord and you can just plug the cord in and charge the controller whenever the battery runs dead.

Its not about them lasting longer or anything of that nature i dont own a charge and play and dont plan on buying one

I am saying the PS3 comes with this standard out of the box

I use rechargables, so no waste of batteries. Well my only complaint is people hacking into accounts. "Recently, there have been reports of fraudulent activity and account theft taking place on the Xbox Live network," a Microsoft representative said in a statement provided to CNET News.com. "Security is a top priority for Xbox Live, and we are actively investigating all reports of fraudulent behavior and theft."

imo its all fine with the 360, except for the overpriced accessories, but that's a minor complain. elchiquilin

Agreed, even though my subconsciousness (typo?) always tells me that the RRoD could appear at any moment. Say, if I were to get the RRoD, how long would it take to get my console back from repair?

Come on dude use your brain before you quote someone, he obviously means Microsoft giving the entireconsole live, so that his brothers/dad or whatever can play on online and get there own seperate profile and get their OWN achievements, etc...without needing to pay 50 a person. Xbox Live guest is pretty meaningless in that you can't make progress yourself.

But main flaws gotta be the lack of online split-screen games or split-screen games as a whole. Once you get past Halo, there is almost no games that support it...But I guess thats what Wii is for.

Also, as many have said, the hardware is complete **** nintendo 64 fell of my dressor and onto the floor soo many times because people going by would trip on the wires, that happens once to your 360 and its done.

Lastly, DLC is unfair in games like Halo that don't allow to enjoy games that you payed for without paying more cash

I'm well aware of that, but if you want to play on line and you wife, room-mate, or other that lives with you wants to play online as well they need there own accounts. sorry I didn't clarify that I was talking about online play but it was overly obvious that I was not talking about offline (hence the reference to gold).

. Also, I'm not a big fan of having my arcade games downgraded to trials even though I bought the gamegr8scott

The fact that the wireless isnt BUILT in

Trying to erase games you dont want on your xbox live gamer profile. like the original xbox games (cause my son still likes to play a few games from the old system :p )

Lol @ wireless online gaming.

I avoid those connections like the plague, wired connections are proven to be better for playing online.

the worst flaw to me is a collection of cheaply made products. The headsets are ridiculously cheap and brittle, the controllers die to quickly even with the rechargeable battery packs, and just how easy it is to accidentally knock it so slightly yet it will chew up your disc inside.

Microsoft

Oh, I have one more. Not being able to delete the ZERO achievement 0/1000 pages on your profile. :P It's not major.. but a delete option should be there.Elann2008

You can. I think you have to go to achievements and press y on the no achievement games.

that it makes to much dern noise when u try to play something!

1. You have to pay for pretty much everything (online, games, arcade games, indie games, themes, gamerpics, most DLC, etc.)

2. Way too freaking loud with certain games (not everyone has a new 360)

3. Barely any good Co-Op games

4. Most of the great games are shooters (Gears of War, Halo, COD, GTA, Battlefield, even ME2 was more shooting than RPG stuff, etc.)

5. Not a big enough default harddrive

6. Micro$oft wanting to charge for stuff that the developers want to release for free

there is no flaw.pokemondude2012

BS. You have to be the biggest fanboy ever to not admit that there are flaws with the 360, as there is with everything else in the world pretty much.
