Ring of Light and Xbox Guide Button. The ring of light is the power button, and it is divided into four quadrants that can display a variety of colors, depending on what is happening.
Xbox Guide button is prominently figured on the controller and the Xbox 360 remote control. This allows you to instantly access information on person who just challenged you on Xbox Live. Or you can even go directly to where you can find downloadable content for the games you currently play. Xbox Guide button will also allow you to turn the Xbox 360 system and from your couch.
It is a great idea, long overdue.
Xbox Live - There will be two types of Xbox Live for Xbox 360
The Silver version is free. It allows you to access Xbox Live Marketplace, and communicating with your friends over voice chat. But you can not play games online.
With the Gold version of Xbox Live, you get all the possible functions. Most importantly, you can play games online. Their results and statistics will be saved so you can watch them whenever you want. You could also use video chat and video messaging. Microsoft has announced that all new Xbox 360 owners will get Gold Service feature for the first month. After that, prices will be similar to Xbox Live on the current Xbox.
Xbox Live Marketplace. Another great feature of Xbox 360 The market is an area where you will be able to download game demos and trailers as well as new content for games such as new levels, characters, vehicles, weapons, and many others. Some things are free, but you'll have to pay for some premium-content.
Digital Entertainment. Xbox 360 allows you to rip your music to your hard disk to be used during games. It will also stream music from any MP3 player that you plug into USB 2.0 ports. These include Sony PSP.
You can also upload images to your hard drive and share them with your friends on Xbox Live. Xbox 360 is also equipped with DVD movies. Unlike the original Xbox, Xbox 360 can display them in progressive scan. It looks like DVD playback will be available out of the box and will not require the purchase of an extra remote or anything. Definitely an improvement.
Customize your console. With the interchangeable faces of the system itself, you can change the color of your system when you want by just snapping on a new face.
You do not even have to buy new faces because you could just paint the stock face yourself. It is guaranteed that Microsoft will roll out a line of limited edition and collectible faces to lure people in, though.
You'll also be able to customize the look and feel of the Xbox Guide browser on the system. Suspiciously similar to changing themes in Windows on your computer. Adaptation is always a good thing, and although these features do not really matter in the long run, they certainly give a good change every once in a while.
Xbox 360, and its major features is a great deal in itself. Remember, it can be addictive, and it is good to get your homework done.
Basically, the hard disk is the one playing a major role in how you can use the Xbox 360 You have the choice to save the progress of the game on the hard disk and rip your CDs to it.
You can transfer music, videos and photos from your mp3 player or other USB devices. It will also need to spend more time on Xbox Live because custom content, patches and other downloadable content needs to be stored somewhere and a little 64MB memory card will not cut it.
The hard disk is required for backwards compatibility. The other bonus to have such a hard drive is that loading time is faster, especially in some games and other performances increases.
In all these Xbox features available, we bet you can find some good entertainment. Try to remember the importance of exercise and read also!
