Independent Reviews (from CNet)
Microsoft XBox 360 Elite (120GB, 250GB)
The good: Excellent selection of games, including many 360-only exclusives; all games are in native high-definition; user-friendly Dashboard interface; supports wireless controllers and accessories; Xbox Live service offers online multiplayer (with matchmaking and voice chat) and content downloads for most games; backward compatible with many--but not all--original Xbox titles; doubles as a superior digital media hub and Windows Media extender; online Marketplace allows easy purchases of minigames, add-on gaming content, high-def movies, and TV shows. The bad: Noisy DVD drive and cooling fan; a gigantic, oversize power supply; no built-in wireless networking; online gaming requires a paid subscription to Xbox Live; proprietary wireless format limits third-party accessories. The bottom line: The Xbox 360 Elite's combination of top-notch gaming and digital media features make it the current game console of choice.
Sony Playstation 3 Ps3 Slim (120GB, 250GB)
The good: Affordable; slimmer, more compact design with quieter operation; all games in high-definition; easy-to-use interface; doubles as a Blu-ray and upscaling DVD player; built-in Wi-Fi; 120GB or 250GB hard drive; HDMI output with 1080p support; no external power supply; built-in Web browser; free online gaming service.
