The excellent Xbox 360!

The Xbox 360 has a whole load of funky features. For starters, it allows you to compete with other players online, as well as download arcade games, game demos, trailers, TV shows and movies and its Windows Media Center multimedia capabilities.

There are two types of Xbox 360. One is called the Xbox 360 Arcade, and it has practically everything you need to begin playing right out of the box. This included Family Settings that allow parents to restrict game access for younger players. It also comes with a wireless controller, and 256MB of memory. The other type of Xbox is the Xbox 360 Elite. It has two great games included, a massive hard drive, an HDMI port, a black wireless controller and headset, and a premium black finish.

You can buy the Xbox 360 consoles from any good electronics retailer in the UK. The Arcade version goes for around 160GBP and the Elite version costs about 260GBP, give or take a few quid.
