Excellent
THE GOOD
Best under-the-hood specs; built-in broadband adapter; 8GB hard drive for music and saved-game storage; high-resolution display support.
THE BAD
Big and bulky; separate kit required to unlock DVD-viewing capability; no progressive-scan DVD playback.
THE BOTTOM LINE
The Xbox is the most versatile console and perfectly complements a home-theater system.
