Well let me first say that being sick sucks. But I guess you have to get sick every so often.

I know my opinion doesn't really matter to most people but I still want to state it anyway. I have had a good amount of time to play around with the 360 and would like to give it a score. First off I would like to thank microsoft for doing what I have wanted a console to do for a long time, playing game demos and watching trailers for free. I don't know about other gamers but I like to play a small demo of a game before shelling out 60 bucks to purchase the full version. Now I grant you there aren't that many but having just one right now makes me happy. So far I have downloaded Kameo, NFS Most wanted and Madden. And so far I am thinking of getting Kameo, and will never buy NFS only because I am not a huge fan of the series but wanted to give it a chance anyway. Now I know watching a trailer of a game doesn't mean much if you can't play it but it is still a nice touch. I also love the fact that you can connect the 360 to a XP computer in the house and even though I haven't had a chance to do this function I look forward to it in the future. Another nice touch microsoft did was add music videos and movie trailers to the mix. So with all this new innovation, microsoft has truly delivered a customizable experience for both the hardcore and casual gamer and with all the themes that you can download you can truly make your game console made just for you. I give the 360 an 89 out of 100%, if you have broadband internet. Now if you don't have broadband then the 360 gets an 80. An 80 you might ask, well the only way you can do most if not all of what I said you have to have broadband internet, because if you don't then all you can really do is what the old Xbox did. So basically if you have broadband then I would strongle recommend getting the 360 but if you don't then there really isn't much incentive right now besides launch games to really consider purchasing.
