Quiet Your Xbox 360
 

There are plenty of reasons to love the Xbox 360. It's a truly next-gen system with hi-def visuals costing less than the PlayStation 3 competition (not to mention you can actually find them in stores). Since it's been out for a year, the software library is already pretty expansive, and some of those new titles are second-generation software that really starts to show off the power of the system (à la Gears of War and Viva Piñata). Then there's the lauded Xbox Live service, downloading free demos from Live Marketplace, and plenty of great cheap games on Xbox Live Arcade. With all the hubbub surrounding the launches of the PlayStation 3 and Wii, it's easy to ignore the awesome next-gen system that already shipped.
