Microsoft released the Xbox 360 in late 2005, and it has since sold over 19 million consoles since its release. It has gone through a number of revisions and upgrades in that time to make it cheaper and more powerful, and it combines a number of home entertainment features that will make it valuable to a wide variety of users. In fact, it is essentially a watered down PC, and it is a real bargain at $300-$350, where the most popular models currently lie. If you want more than a fantastic gaming console, then the Microsoft Xbox 360 console is perfect for all of your home entertainment needs.

Movies, Music, and Much More

The Microsoft Xbox 360 console combines the best in home entertainment into one sleek package. Networking capabilities right out of the box make it a snap to take online, and you can start playing games with your friends within minutes. However, the Microsoft Xbox 360 console is also capable of playing standard DVDs, so you can toss out your old DVD player if you'd like your home entertainment area to be less cluttered. Also, it's perfect for playing audio CDs, increasing its versatility and use even further.

However, you're probably looking at the Microsoft Xbox 360 console for an entirely different reason than to watch movies or listen to music. You want to play games! And of games there are plenty to choose from: Grand Theft Auto IV, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and Halo 3 to name a few, and there are hundreds of fun titles to choose from.

If $300 still sounds too pricey for you, then you can choose to purchase the Xbox 360 core console, saving you a significant amount off the premium version. Of course, you can always choose to buy used consoles, which are tested to ensure their reliability by resellers. The core version doesn't include a hard drive, but you can always purchase an external hard drive later to hook up to it. There is absolutely no reason to go out and purchase a CD player and a DVD player when you can just go ahead and purchase the Microsoft Xbox 360 console. Not only will it cover all of your home entertainment needs, but you'll also be able to choose from the largest selection of next gen titles available.
