If the original Xbox 360 was God's Christmas-2005 gift to gaming, then the Xbox 360 'Elite' must have come from God 2.0, and it's here to kick your ass, take down your name (on a piece of paper it keeps in its front shirt pocket), and embarrassingly pwn you in front of your little sister in every game from Barbie: Horse Adventure to Halo 3 and back again.

Let's run down the specs on this monster, listed above:

-It's Black, the color nature invented just for game consoles.
-It comes with a wireless controller (also black), because if I wanted to tether myself to a computer, I'd install a USB port in my hand.
-It has One Hundred and Freaking Twenty GB of hard drive space, which is at least more than Bill Gates ought to need.
-It has a black headset, which is convenient both because it matches the rest of the rig and it won't gradually yellow under the withering profanity you *will* be screaming through it when you are headshotting the noobs (in Barbie: Horse Adventure).
-And a bunch of cables that, I'll be honest, I don't really understand because I don't have a PhD in HDTV-ology, but you KNOW they're good because of they have letters like HDMI in them.

Put ALL of that together in a cardboard box, shake it up and down, give it to the UPS guy to kick into his truck and toss out the window through my screen door as he drives over my lawn, and what do you get?

Well, I like to think that if that should happen, you'd get a pretty good review of the Xbox 360 'Elite'.
