  • While we still don't know exactly what is going on under that final hood that is the Xbox 360 XCGPU heat spreader we do know that Microsoft is making some interesting decisions about the technology going into the console.  They have spent what is likely a...

  • Smaller; Wireless added with WiFi 802.11n; 250GB is a welcome upgrade for hard drive space;
  • Hard drive can no longer be detached easily; Only standard definition cables included in the box; Current Xbox owners will need to fork out an extra $25 to move their data across quickly; Loud high-pitched buttons get annoying quickly

  • Put simply, the Xbox 360 250GB is the best Xbox Microsoft has made thus far. It's better featured, with more USB ports and built-in wireless, its more energy efficient internals mean it's quieter and less power-hungry than its predecessors and, perhaps mo...

  • Looks fantastic; slimmer and lighter than previous models; very little fan noise; great value for money
  • Cooling fan in power brick; no HDMI cable included; chassis collects fingerprints like nobody's business
  • Microsoft's Xbox 360 Slim offers improvements over its predecessors in every area, with reduced fan noise, a 250GB hard drive and great looks. It's really good value and, with the brilliant selection of HD games available for the platform, we think it'...

  • Built-in WiFi, Slimline design, Larger hard drive
  • Incompatible with old Xbox HDs, No Blu-ray, Lacks media storage capability
  • With wireless connectivity, extra storage within a stylish, near silent body, there's no doubt that this is the best xBox ever. Gameplay is superlative, with fantastic graphics, a huge range of titles and of course xBox Live.But while Sky Player, Zune and...
