I Expected More!
Started Nov 29, 2005
Strengths: Better graphics than the original xbox. Every game is in HD. More than a just a gaming system with it's media center capabilities.
Weaknesses: Current game list doesn't utilize the xbox 360's abilities, so the graphics don't appear to be drastically better than the original xbox. It's not fully backwards compatible.
The xbox 360 is slightly disappointing to me, the graphics are only slightly better than on the original console, I already own a few HD games for the original xbox and the graphic improvements of the 360 are even less noticeable in those games (the jaggies are slightly less apparent). I can't wait to buy a game that really puts the xbox 360's hardware to task to see what it can really do.
A huge plus is that the xbox 360 adds a bunch of new functions with xbox live and connectivity options so it functions more as a media hub, which I'm just starting to explore, in this case it resembles a multimedia computer more so than a gaming system.
To sum it up, it's a good system (not great, but good), I just expected a little more of a jump (as far as graphics go) between the orginal and the 360.
