Microsoft Xbox 360

The Microsoft Xbox 360 is the best Next-Gen console in my opinion. It came out a year earlier than the competition, so it has all the great games. Its controller is perfect and feels nice in my hands. The games look supurb in HD. The Xbox Live service is great, easy to connect to a game. The Marketplace is part of Live (free Silver membership to use marketplace) where you can download various things. You can download demos, gamerpics, movies, arcade titles, and much more. However, I do not like the fact that you have to actually pay to play a game in multiplayer. Being an avid gamer, I am pretty dissasified that you would have to pay for a service you can get on everything else for free. I also don't like the fact that the failure rate for 360's are high, it has a 30% chance of breaking on you. Other than those two cons, I say its a well made purchase.
