XBox 360 Console

Thiner and more potent, the new XBox 360 console was designed to take full advantage of the new and “revolutionary” Kinect system (it was before known as the Project Natal). The console has just been introduced in the market during Microsoft’s keynote at E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo), which is the most important trade show for the video games industry in the world.

The new Microsoft console has a 250GB hard drive. It comes with a thinner case and quite reduced dimensions; anyway, the case is still conserving the typical curved design from the former XBox 360. Besides, it has built-in WiFi connectivity and five USB ports (two on the front panel and other three ports on the back); of course, those ports guarantee an easy connection with a wide variety of devices, controls, and gadgets.
The buttons (which remind us of those buttons from the PS3, at least vaguely) implement a system that, according to the gaming media that are covering the E3 these days, results in a more silent operation when it is compared with the former console; and certainly, that feature is a nice and very preferable thing.
Of course, this new console includes an AV port that is intended to be used as a connector for the Kinect system.
Kinect is the new and “revolutionary” way of playing games that was recently introduced by the Redmon company. In spite of the improvements, the launch price of the new console is $299 (in United States), which is exactly the same price for the former console.
