This review is from: Xbox 360 Super Elite Console (250 GB Hard Drive) with Forza 3 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
Forza Motorsport in itself is a great game. An excellent buy for any racing enthusiast, or even an aspiring artist, thanks to its comprehensive customisation section. Forza 3 – Great game, great content, looks great, feels great. Everything you could want in a simulation racer.
Onto the console. Looks good, the sleak black finish is very nice, the 250GB hard drive is a real plus and the extra controller is a nice addition aswell. Almost everything you would expect from an Xbox 360 is here –
My main concern with this product is the lack of HD capability out of the box. The consoles in the past came with HD component cables which is only logical because for most users they intend to enjoy a HD gaming experience. The more recent consoles however, due to Microsofts ever increasing greed, have taken the HD leads out of the box and replaced it with a standard cable, meaning you need to buy a HD component cable or HDMI cable seperately. If this was the norm, I wouldn’t be so shocked, but considering it has not always been the case, I grudge giving microsoft the extra pennies.
Overall, a good buy, great game, great console, but the lack of HD capability straight out of the box is a dissapointment, and the extra cost is something to keep in mind when looking to purchase this.

Overall the Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite console has great graphics and is easy to use. There are a wide variety of games for everyone. Everything you need comes in the box such as a HDMI cable and an ethernet cable.There is still a lot of noise coming from the console. The online is not free. Also there is no bluray drive or wifi built in.Would of given the console a perfect score of 10/10 if had it had a blu-ray drive (internal or external). Exclusive games, XBox live, smart looking, ease of use, nice comfortable controllers, graphics that rival sometimes exceed PS3 graphics.

This review is from: Xbox 360 Super Elite Console (250 GB Hard Drive) with Forza 3 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
This Xbox 360 bundle is great value and includes a 250GB hard drive, 2 wireless controllers and the new Forza 3 game. The console itself is amazing and when connected to a high definition TV has some of the best graphics and sound I’ve seen on the current generation of consoles. Just make sure you order an HDMI or Component cable if you have a compatible TV as only a standard TV cable is included in the box. The Xbox Live service is now even better value for money as its recently been upgraded to include the Sky TV player, Facebook, Twitter and movies on demand in full 1080p high definition. Also has a good selection of new games and back catalogue titles to suit all tastes. The only drawback with the Xbox 360 is its noisy fans and this can be slightly annoying during quiet scenes if you’re watching a movie.
