This was pretty easy to set up, not having even used an XBox before. I just needed an HDMI cable and an Ethernet cable. Lots of those sitting around. I actually bought this for my grandson, but I find I am using the Xbox for other than games. It is a convenient media viewer, as my regular DVD players won't play some of the file types that given to me to view. The graphics are very good on my 55" Panasonic plasma if I remember to switch the TV to "Game" mode. Games? There is a local used game store that has any game my grandson or I would like to play, at a very reasonable price. Am I pleased that I bought this? Darn right I am. I can't be a boring grandfather for my grandkids. Well, I can, but the XBox i bought makes me a lot less boring!

The Kinect camera cannot connect to the XBox-360. The system marks an Internet connection error when connecting the cable to XBox-360 A wireless control, when playing, is disconnected in more than one occasion during the game sessions. But, everything else is fine, the images, game speed, games, except those that use the Kinnect camera, I have not tried, / It did not come with the Kinnect camera connection cable

The Xbox 360 Elite 120GB Black Console is a great buy if you are looking for a great gaming experience. The black consoles were a replacement for the white consoles which seemed to have overheating issues that would cause the console to "red ring" (the power button on the console would have red lights rather than the default green lights) and no longer function. The console uses an external hard drive which can be easily upgraded from 120GB to either 250GB or 320GB and is mounted on the top of the console. Slots for USB accessories are available as are slots for standard A/V cables, Component cables, and many have HDMI cable compatibility. The console uses a standard wireless Xbox 360 controller and supports up to 4 controllers at a time. Multiplayer gaming over the internet via an Xbox Live account(separate purchase)is definitely a plus allowing the player to play games with friends and family members not at the same location. Multiple Xbox Live accounts per console is also allowed. Compared to the newer 360S(slim model), the Elite console lacks certain features such as built in wireless connectivity and internal hard drive support. The Elite is only slightly larger is physical size than the slim model. Overall, the Elite is a great selection for those wishing to get started with 360 while having the ability to store saved games as well as being able to install the games onto the hard drive. Unfortunately, Microsoft has not installed the ability to play the games without the game CD in the tray making the installed game only slightly better than just playing the game straight from the game CD itself.

This review is to review the focuses differences that are not on a "standard" XBOX 360 and the Elite, and rate the system as a new purchase, not an upgrade or replacement to your current XBOX 360, but overall. When the Elite was first announced, the biggest thing that made this different than the other two versions: the HDMI output. Now, after the new XBOX 360 price drop announcement and hardware update, the only difference between the Elite and the Premium is the 120GB Hard Drive and included HDMI cable. Almost everything about the Xbox 360 in white stands true for the Elite: It theoretically doesn't run cooler, or quieter, or faster, and you've already know that it is black. The Elites should have the added heat sink for realiability, but all models should be receiving that soon. Don't let the black paint job distract you; the only thing you need to ask is if it improves the video quality and after many reviews and hours using this machine, the XBox Elite's HDMI output is the pretty darn good, and the 120GB hard drive upgrade is nice for all that downloadable content that you have been picking up on th market place. Should you buy it? Gamers who have an Xbox 360? No! Videophiles looking for an HD DVD player? No! Videophiles looking to get into the Xbox Live video marketplace? Yes, but know that this thing is still loud and you can now get HDMI in the newly manufactured XBOX Premiums. Guys like me who are gamers and video geeks? Ya, this is for you. The fact that all that video and audio is being piped through a single HDMI cable is a bonus. I swear it's a touch cooler and quieter, and I could want it to be such, but reports say it is not. When running the HD DVD player, using Tokyo Drift and the newly minted HQV Silicon Optics test disc—the rigorous test disc benchmarks showed the same flaws on both the HDMI and Component outputs. Jaggies That means the video processor between the older and newer Xbox is likely identical, or of identical quality. That's the processor, though. This isn't a high-end HD DVD player. As for the outputs and what I saw with my own eyes and confirmed with my camera. The HDMI's slightly better shadow detail showed itself. That detail might be lost on a lesser TV or the untrained eye. But remember that the component cables are limited to 1080i. So HDMI wins at full 1080p with no compromises, but with VGA cables you have a draw. Playing games, Command and Conquer and Virtua Tennis yielded no differences between the 1080p signals of all three cables—except the strange washed out colors that the VGA cables sometimes show (GRAW and Gears of War, for starters). The HDMI again has that shadow detail boost that comes up over and over again. HDMI wins for a better picture, even though all cables do the 1080p dance with games. Final Verdict: It runs HDMI 1.2 (not 1.3 - the newest version), only runs 5.1 Dolby still (no 7.1 yet), and only has the bonus of the larger hard drive, and sleek styling. The 360 Elite is worth getting if you are just now entering the high definition video game market and need the extra hard drive space for all your goodies - if not,then save yourself $100 and get the newly updated Premium with HDMI, packaged with a game bundle (if you can find them) and game on.Read full review
If ya like vidja gamez, better graphics and more titles than other systems. Have had a Wii for a few years, but haven't been impressed by the available games. Wanted to get an Xbox in Nov 2010 but I didn't want a 4GB hdd that's in newer slim models as it won't store much at all and didn't want to pay for the 250GB slim model. Decided to go with the used, slightly older model in order to save money and get the features I wanted (all Xbox models play the same games right? Why pay more?). Odd that it doesn't have Wireless built-in (the slim models do, but Wiis have had it since inception years ago), but running an Ethernet cable isn't a big deal. Works well with Windows Media Center to stream music/videos from other computers on local network. Only came with HDMI cable, so I had to buy a composite adapter for about $15, not a big deal, guess that tells me it's time to get a new (HD) tv. Bottom line, if you're looking to buy now, can't recommend the 4GB hdd in new slim models, but if you have the money and can afford the 250GB model, that's probably your best bet. Otherwise, I'd opt for an older model with at least 60GB of storage. And research before you buy so that you can get everything you want.Read full review
