Mon, 07 Sep 2009 08:30:55 -0700 Guys and the Games They Play - Xbox 360 Elite Console Review and Unboxing | Sweet Gifts For Boyfriends http://sweetgiftsforboyfriends.posterous.com/guys-and-the-games-they-play-xbox-360-elite-c http://sweetgiftsforboyfriends.posterous.com/guys-and-the-games-they-play-xbox-360-elite-c

At Sweet Gifts for Boyfriends, we’ve had a ton of requests from guys for gaming systems and/or games for gaming systems, so, let’s talk gaming.

For those ladies who don’t know, the 3 top gaming systems or platforms are:

  1. Microsoft’s xbox
  2. Sony’s Playstation
  3. 3.Nintendo’s Wii.

Each of the systems has it’s own features that make the game attractive to certain groups of players.

xbox360eliteBy far, the most popular of the systems is Microsoft’s xbox so we’ll cover that one first.

Xbox 360 is the most popular of the gaming systems or gaming platforms. the Xbox 360 has cruised on to the No. 1 spot on the home console charts, with more than 10 million units sold worldwide.  The good news is, if your guys an xbox fan, he’s among great company.

Xbox in it’s newest version, is called “xbox 360 Elite”.  If he doesn’t have it, or perhaps I should say if he doesn’t have it yet, and he’s in xbox player, or he wants the most state-of-the-art gaming system, he will want to have the xbox 360 Elite system soon.  Are you thinking it would make a great Christmas gift for your boyfriend yet?

Cnet, one of the most respected sources for reviews of everything in gaming and computers, reviewed the new xbox and had this to say: “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 entire review is available here. http://reviews.cnet.com/consoles/microsoft-xbox-360-elite/4505-10109_7-32390552.html

The new box is black, I really liked the matte black finish, very sleek looking.  It has a 120GB hard drive which is 6 times as much capacity as the previous version, twice as big as the PS3’s, and sports an HDMI output for easier hookups to HDTV’s.  What guy do you know that doesn’t want to hook up to the big screen for game playing when he has the chance?

As with the older xbox 360 versions, the xbox 360 Elite works as both a CD and DVD player.  This feature may explain how it’s made it’s way to so many living rooms.

The only real downside to this system is the price.  At a whopping $480.00, it is out of range for most of us ladies to snatch one of these systems up as an easy birthday gift for a boyfriend.  Hold on though, there is some good news on the price!  The xbox 360 Elite was originally priced at $480.00 but the price has recently been lowered to $299.99, the lowered price makes it much more attractive for giving as a birthday gift, anniversary gift or holiday gift for your boyfriend.

Here’s a video from cnet on exactly what you get when you purchase the xbox 360 Elite.

So there you have it, after you’ve read my xbox 360 review and seen the video for the unboxing of Microsoft’s xbox elite console, I’m sure you’ll agree that with all of the xbox 360 elite accessories that come with it, it’s one of the best xbox 360 deals around.  It will save you money buying the bundle rather than buying everything separately.
