    Duration of ownership: 1 Months

    Strengths: XBL, Games library, HD gaming (1080p), Online marketplace has great stuff ;)

    Weaknesses:the 33% failure rates (well I am not one of them w00t falcon chip), Accesories cost a fortune, you don't get much for your money vs. the dollar per dollar profit on a ps3.

    Overall Evaluation: Well aside from the failure rates, I am a happy camper. love the games and fun with multiplayer in XBL. Only strong point against ps3 because psn has bad integrity but sill love both systems.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Large game library available, good controller feel, nice interface, great online community.

    Weaknesses:Huge power brick, loud, overheats easily.

    Overall Evaluation: Even though I'm a fairly hardcore gamer, I'd say this console has definitely not won many points with me since I've owned it (or, maybe, it's pwned me?!?!).I love the huge library of games, the integration with games with the well-thought-out online community (Xbox Live!), and the feel of the controllers.I hate the heating issues with this thing, though. I'm currently on my 2nd XB360 (I sent the first back to Microsoft for repairs within the 1st year...typical for this console) and am probably going to end up sending back this one for more repairs. Frankly, I'm torked that M$ would allow something with this level of build quality (and the amount of $ it cost me) to get into consumers' hands and not replace it with a working console (it's widely known that most folks have had to have their XB360 replaced at least once).The sad thing: I can't stay away. The mix of games and online community via Xbox Live! is too compelling to make me throw this thing out alltogether. So, I'll suffer Microsoft's apparent lack of care for their consumer base and keep playing my ExBox.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Works. All pieces included. Arrived early(to fedex' credit). Shipping was free.

    Weaknesses:Not quite in like new condition, a little dirty, nothing permanent looking though, and it didnt red ring of death right outta the box.... wait thats not a weakness. :(

    Overall Evaluation: Overall, I am very pleased with the order, I was scared due to reading some of the bad comments after placing the order, but luckily mine isn't one of them. Even if the system fails after a week or so, it is still under MS warranty so I'm not sweating... just enjoying my new excuse to wake up more than 20 minutes before work. :)

    Strengths: Pretty good graphics for a console.

    Weaknesses:Need to buy the Elite version for an HDMI video connection. (some TVs can't support 1080p on component connections)

    Overall Evaluation: Still the best console out there for the money. The XBox 360 has tons of games. Pretty good graphics for a console and is reasonably priced. Parents don't have to take out a second mortgage to help Santa at Christmas time :)One of my favorite features of the XBox 360 is the wireless controllers, and being a Vista Media Center Extender is also a big added bonus.
