Product Description:
Xbox 360 Pro System 60GB
Amazon.com:
Xbox 360 sets a new pace for digital entertainment. More than just a cutting-edge game system, Xbox 360 also integrates high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital music, photos, and online connectivity into one sleek, small tower, and in the process puts true Next-Gen power right at your fingertips.  | | Xbox 360, shown with wireless controller, is a sleek, customizable gaming and entertainment system |
Under the Hood
Xbox 360 is much smaller than its predecessor--it measures approximately 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs 7.7 lbs. It's powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz. It also carries a custom ATI graphics processor loaded with 10 MB of embedded DRAM, 48-way parallel floating-point dynamically scheduled shader pipelines and Unified shader architecture. This is powerful enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games in standard TV definition, and even better thanks to built-in support for HDTV 1080i televisions. It also supports the widescreen 16:9 format. The unit has a 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM drive, which plays both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out of the box. For game-save and media storage, users can choose between the detachable and upgradeable 60GB hard drive, or a separately sold 64MB flash Memory Unit. Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward-compatible with part of the existing Xbox game library.
Control your Gameplay
Xbox 360 uses a refined button layout for its controllers. Back and Start buttons sit at the center of the controller and between them is a new Xbox Guide button, which instantly takes the user to the Xbox 360 user interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos and songs, and more. The black and white buttons of the first Xbox controllers have been replaced with new shoulder buttons placed above the left and right triggers. Xbox 360 can accommodate up to four wireless controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to use for wired controllers or for streaming your digital media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows XP-based PC. Microsoft has also created a video-conferencing camera, sold separately, that will work with the system.
 | | Xbox 360 can manage your games, your online friends, and your personal digital library |
The Media Experience
All Xbox 360 titles can be played in either standard or high-definition resolution in 16:9 widescreen, with anti-aliasing for smoother graphics. Game designers will be able to take advantage of the system's multi-channel surround sound. The Xbox 360's digital media allows users to supplement any game's music from tracks in their own personal library.
Go Live
A built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their system to a broadband connection for access to Xbox Live. The Xbox Live Silver Membership included with the console lets anyone create a Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat live with voice chat, and connect to the Xbox Live Marketplace to buy expansions, maps, and other digital items for your games. You can also update to a Xbox Live Gold Membership at anytime for even more benefits. The separately sold wireless adapter supports the common 802.11a, -b, and -g standards.

I think that if you own a 360, you will experience the Red Ring of Death. I had the 360 for only a year and it died, and that is actually a long time for it not to break according to some other people who have also had this problem. So, sooner or later, the Grim Reaper will find your 360. It is a shame to. I'd recommend waiting until a new version of the 360 is released before you buy one. I've heard there is one in the works, so wait

Unfortunately i just bought this item ( 3rd one so far since launch ) for 349.99 and i was looking around and i saw there was a price drop effective TOMORROW! I read DANS review and calmed down. Then i called amazon (hard to find number which is 800-201-7575 by the way) to see if they did a price guarantee on this item. They told me that effective september 1st they no longer had a price guarantee. So basically i payed 50 more but its not a big deal. i just should have looked around better first. ... Read More

The Xbox 360 with the 60GB hard drive seems quieter, and of course with the larger hard drive I can download more data.
I wanted the newer one for the Netflix downloads that will occur this Fall.
I am really looking forward to the user interface update this Fall. Now, with the new price drops this is definitely the best gaming console hands down.

I bought it to replace a failed xbox360 unit 1.5 year old. CC ext. warranty issued a full refund.
This revision looks exactly as previous ones, just smaller power brick (175W).
The changes are inside: 4 Memory chips on the bottom removed and the ones on top are doubled.
MS believes bottom memory chips overheating was primary cause of RRoD due to a bad ventilation.
Time will tell if it is true...
Good Luck with yours!

The new 60GB units still use the same old faulty unreliable Falcon chipset and motherboards. These are still just as prone to break (Red Ring of Death or RROD if you prefer) as all the other units. Buyer beware, if your buying this for yourself then consider this your warning, please do not buy this for a family member especially younger children as this will quickly become far to big of a time consuming excerise for any parent to deal with. I personally had 11 360's and spent over 24 hours on the ... Read More
