I enjoyed Digital Foundry's unboxing of the Core model. I think Rich said something along the lines of why would anyone get the premium model despite not having a HDTV and it reminded me that I indeed still used a CRT despite picking up the pro model. Glad I did too because the HDD was practically necessary. The system itself was sleek and the controller was very comfortable. In fact, I still think it feels more premium than successive controllers, particularly the launch Xbox One controller with its horrible bumpers.
Anyway, the early days of the Xbox 360 were great. I picked one up a year after launch along with Gears of War and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion so I had an awesome time with it. Remember trying to snipe across the Canals map in Gears?
It wouldn't be long before we got Dead Rising, Lost Planet, Halo 3, Mass Effect, Crackdown etc. and of course most multi-platform games were better on the 360.
