Although almost all gamers don't think so, but I just so happen to like games that have unlockable art sections and such? I'm an artistic person, so I like using these sections at times to help me draw. And I do just happen to have both Okami and Shadow of the Colossus, and I think they are some of the best games I have. I would also have Castle Crashers, but I don't have a 360.

I agree but I think we're probably the minority. I'm going into the industry so I like the concept artwork and the behind the scenes stuff. Fable II Pub Games made me want to unlock concept artwork which was cool because its was concept art for a game that wasn't out. That's the way they should go with it but only if the related tied in game was free like Pub Games lol. I also liked the system requirements mention in the comments, agreed.

i haven't yet met someone who likes nicklback.
they do suck though. but i think most of these features are just some bull crap trown in by developers. very very very few people, if any at all, buy these systoms for those features. also anyone who registers for an account just to whine and complain about opinions that are different from his own is a lame douce bag with no life.

For some reason i do not agree with any of this at all, i use most of these features because they are what i want in gaming and thats obviously how other people feel because the gaming companies have realised, so they have provided.

I have a NFS Carbon 'Collectors' edition. I paid 10 bucks more a cardboard cover. Silliest purchase I ever made.

wow.
im pretty sure this article was a plot to get people to register for gamesradar to comment on how horrible it is. hey, i fell for it :P
i bought the elite when that was the only way you could get HDMI. pretty sure gamers care about higher def. the only one i could agree with was the stupid paper sleeve one. pretty sure everyone already knew that one. and they could have at least found a game case for the example, rather than a movie.

playing a game on a harder difficulty that changes the game? How about a game that even the words you choose affects Everything? Now add Online Capabilites. Welcome to Knights of the Old Republic Online.

You forgot to mention sixaxis, it is completely useless to me. Either go all the way or don't do it at all.

you can actually use your xbox 360 avatars in the new scene it! game they have, and it's actually pretty neat, if you like the board game and are too lazy to set it up yourself. plus it's kind of neat to have you and your friends real and little digital selves competing on the screen

Well, I was just thinki-oh my Jesus H. Christ, is the "characters remaining" count in the thousands?! My God, I was so used to YouTube, I've forgotten what it's like to have a rational character limit. Thank you, GamesRadar, for showing me the light.

But anyways, I like that whole "Boil an Egg" difficulty, it sounds pretty hardcore. It'd probably make Legendary and Insane weep uncontrollably in a dark corner, shut out from the rest of the world.

Unknown to most readers, the XBox Suffered a fatal RROD shortly after this article was writen, just like the other models, exept more trajic, because it cost more.
