- Here’s An Opinion On:
- Crawford Real Estate
As we rip the new Video Games Console out of the box shiny case is striking , the new 250GB xbox 360 is more compact than the original course and noticeably lighter but the sheen of the plastic that really stands out. We feared that the lighter weight and shiny finish risked giving it a slightly cheaper feel but that’s not the case. This is one sexy console.
The prominent grills on the side of the case give you a clear look at the fan system and cooling heatsink metal that sits under the shiny plastic, which is an odd design for a games console, which are usually very closed in boxes that offer you little chance to view of their inner machinery. It gives the machine a look comparable to highend gaming PCs with those big clear side-panels that show off their powerful guts rather than hide them away.The xbox 360 slim 250gb hard drive is enough for yo to storage other games,movies and songs.
As with the old Xbox and all current-gen consoles, the slimmer Xbox can be placed in either vertical or horizontal configurations. There are vents on both ends of the console, the underside of which will be restricted when placed vertically, but with grills covering a large proportion of the machine we can’t imagine there being any issues with heat in either configuration.
It’s a pretty console , very pretty. A subtly aggressive appearance without being cheesy like an AlienWare PC. Our only complain would be the fingerprints – the glossy finish, like the Black Wii and first PS3, will be covered in your gamer grease within minutes.
Flip it around and on the back you see the usual selection of ports ,USB, HDMI, power and the Xbox’s proprietary component video out (you can see the full space of the console here so we won’t waste time to go through them again). Optical support is now built in, and there’s the extra addition of a special port for the Kinect which will supply the device with its power, while old Xbox owners will need to plug Kinect into a wall outlet.
The power supply is much nicer than the bricks we’ve all had to hide behind our TVs for the past four years, its size sliced down to a fraction of the previous models, lighter and smoothly clipping into the back of the console with none of forced clunkiness of the original. It’s ironic, just as Sony chooses to rid PS3 of its (slick, we thought) touch-sensitive buttons for regular push-in ones, Microsoft has taken the new Xbox360 video games in the opposite direction.
