PREY is out for that too but i have not tried it yet......hoook it up to a net work and u can stream music off your xbox from your computer i think that is cool most games support playing your own music too now

I think it's worth the money. a few more good games are ghost recon advanced warfighter, and oblivion, and of course, halo 3 when it comes out. and compared to $600 USD for a ps3, it looks even more attractive

the sports titles are awesome on the X360, tomb raider's good too (except the bike levels lol)
Perfect Dark was also good while it lasted
i also got Top Spin Tennis, Tiger Woods, Fifa(first fifa i played since the Sega Megadrive/genisis days where i felt in control on the players lol), ghost recon rocks
but its online where X360 comes into the zone, unbeatable

Honestly if you have an HD television the graphics are UNREAL!! I heard the online play is unbeatable also. I don't own one yet but once there are some established 'mods' for it I might start looking.

technically there is a mod chip for the 360 but it would probably take like ten days and it would blow your system. google devil360

i have a friend that said he would mod mine for 50 bucks and give me 10 games on it. Right now i'm a little dissappointed with it. The graphics are killer, but the titles are limited and i'm pissed that the sports games are missing features that the xbox and ps2 have with the ea sports titles:@

I find that they are worth the money. The ps3 is way too expensive, and the 360 has plenty of great games and the graphics are really good. but...i find that spending that much money on a video game system is unbelievable. But im going to buy one anyway, but only once I have used my money for the really important things

yeah, EA was really disappointing last year, madden 2006 didnt' even have madden in it, no cards, no fantasy draft, no challenging plays. hopefully this year they won't rush it

You'd be crazy to buy a 360 now, waiting till after christmas would be alot smarter as the price will drop. I've found there is a terribly limited game selection, the system is extremely noisy and it over heats and freezes after 3 hours or so of playing, if you have the power brick (and it is a brick!) anywhere near the system it over heats even quicker.
There is a mod chip for it but it disables xbox live like it did on the old xbox so if you wanna lose the best feature of the system go for it.

y u seem to know nothing at all about the 360 except about the limited selection this is true but its getting better and better.....i never found it to be extremely loud.......early models over heat but the trick it keep the vents clear......and the freezeing were also early release xbox and there werent even that many....there is always going to be glitches with every new realase that come out.......and last the mod chip it does not disable your xboxlive experiance u just dont want to play online with a backup game casue u can get banned from xbox live dont be believe me http://www.team-underdog.com/

Yeah righto I don't know anything. Compared to other gaming machines IT IS EXTREMELY LOUD and they do over heat very easily no matter where they are, that's why microsoft have released external fans for it. Funny everyone on the biggest gaming forums on the net share the exact same opinion as me, but you'd know better than the majority right? Bloody fanboy.

and what forums are those ???
Keep it civilised people, everyone is entitled to their opinion and in my experiences the 360 were very laggy online, crashed peridoically and had a poor array of games.
never really had any problems with it except need for speed most wanted freezeing on me but that is no lagging not even in halo2.....if your is crashig its over heating......if all the vents are clears get the intercooler......most of teh games do suck besides like 5 of them
