When I went out to buy this game I had played with a friend’s game. A few times after bringing it over my friend said he was tired of bringing it all over. I knew at that moment I needed to go out and buy it. I picked up my game at Best Buy for around $189 +tax. When I got home the unboxing was kind of complicated and confusing. Once I got it all out of the box set up was easy after I have it out of the box I had it set up in minutes. Everything is of great quality and seems very durable under normal game play. The only problem I have is the stuff takes up a good amount of room when not in use the microphone and guitar are not the problem it’s the drums. When assembled they talk up a lot of room so when planning on getting rock band 2 I would also think about how you will store it and maybe look to getting a travel case. Now over all the game play is amazing it keeps my friends and I busy for hours. If anyone is thinking about buying this go to a store and try it out. I feel that this was a great game to buy and worth every penny.
After a long awaited occasion, Microsoft released a new version of the Xbox 360 Pro. Once I heard that Microsoft was going to finally offer an Xbox with more than 20GB and that it was only $300, I knew that my part in the console wars has been decided. Many of my friends own an Xbox but I still was not sold on it. After taking a look again at my 3 choices, I decided on the Xbox. There are many reasons I chose the Xbox over the other consoles. Here are a few of those reasons:
- Wireless Controllers
- Wireless Headsets
- HDMI Output
- Four Year Hardware Warranty
- Media Center Extender
- Netflix on Demand Video
- Divx Player
- MP3 Player
The only problem I seem to have is the power brick size. To be honest though, that’s not really a problem. In my home theater system I have my Xbox hooked up to my TV through HDMI. Hooked to my Xbox is a 160 GB MyBook Western Digital External Hard Drive, which is full of digital copies of my DVDs, music, and photos. The external Hard Drive and the Xbox power brick sit behind my TV and are completely out of sight.
Overall I am very happy with the Xbox 360 Pro and would recommend it to anyone who still has not picked a console from the big three.
