Xbox 360 Games set a new step for digital entertainment. More sophisticated than a game system, Xbox 360 Games also integrates high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital music, photos, and online connectivity into one sleek, small tower, and in the process puts true Next-Gen power right at your fingertips.
Under the Hood
Xbox 360 Hard Drive is much smaller than its predecessor - measuring approximately 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs 7.7 pounds. It's powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz. This also carries a custom ATI graphics processor loaded with 10 MB embedded DRAM, 48-way parallel floating-point dynamically scheduled shader pipelines and Unified shader architecture. This is strong enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games in standard TV definition, and even better thanks to built-in support for HDTV 1080i television. It also supports 16:9 wide screen format.
Unit has a 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM, which plays both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out of the box. For game-save and media storage, users can choose between removable and upgradeable 60GB hard drive, or a separately sold 64MB flash Memory Unit. Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward compatible with the existing Xbox game library.
Controlling Gameplay
Xbox 360 Games Controller uses soft button layout for the controller. Started the Back button and sit in the middle of the controller and between them is a new Xbox Guide button, which immediately brings the user to the Xbox 360 Games Controller user interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos and songs, and much more. Black and white buttons of the first Xbox controllers have been replaced with a new one placed over the left shoulder button and right trigger. Xbox 360 Games Controller can accommodate up to four wireless controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to use for wired controllers or for streaming your digital media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows XP-based PC.
