Where do i start? scale of 1-10 (10 best 1 sux)
First impression: I loved it. the graphics are amazing and the controls are very simple and similar to the original xbox (no white black buttons, replaced by left right buttons). The games are great call of duty 2 and ghost recon absolutely killing the rest.
I bought a core system (the only one they had in the store) so i needed to install the hard drive. It was so easy! I simply lifted the top grate off of the 360 and lined up the female port with the male port and it was done.
Now: I am becoming less and less impressed with the 360. It is a great console but there is nothing innovative on it.
I tried to link it to my PC for file sharing but i never could get them to connect.
Older xbox games dont work (halo 2 and a couple others do).
Service: a friend of mine has a 360 as well. he was playing on it (halo 2) and the laser burned the disk! (it left a large brown ring that didnt come off) Stupid enough he played Oblivion on it later and it burned that too. He called microsoft and told them that it did that and they said they could replace Halo 2 but not oblivion. later they called back and said halo2 is too old they cant replace it. I wrote them about linking the 360 the my pc and they never wrote back.

Hardware: like i said the hard drive is easy to install. The headsets are easy to work and the wireless controlers do work 60 feet away.

Xbox Live: It is really simple to activate your subscription (after you have registered and made a name, a really long and tedious process)
Rating:8
Software: awesome games! everyone has great graphics and are deep in gameplay. no glitches so far.
Rating:10
Multiplayer:Xbox Live: yes there are glitches but that has a lot to do with internet not xbox live.
Rating:8
Multiplayer:System Link: awesome gameplay. easy to set up, no glitches in play. it can even system link with original xboxs. i connected mine to 3 others at a party the other night.
Rating:10
Multiplayer:Split Screen: its split screen it kinda sux but what split screen doesnt. needs a different profile for each player.
Rating:7
Media Player: it kinda sux. it plays your music with really good sound but the visualizer is just stupid. videos are amazing but, you need a different cable for hd output.
Rating:6
Xbox Live: Marketplace: easy to find things and alot to look through. prices are ridiculous. very few things are less than 100 points and usually its not worth the money. good free trials but they are just demos.
Rating:5
Appearance: you know its sexy

Fun: yeah its fun especially on system link or xbox live.
Rating:10
