Xbox 360 Reviews from CNET Editors

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Microsoft Xbox 360 S (250GB) The bottom line: Though the new Xbox 360 certainly addresses most of the concerns we've had with the versions before it, we don't think it warrants a purchase if you already own an Xbox 360 in working order with an HDMI-out port and a hard drive. Read Review	$298.99 to $554.98

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite (120GB) The bottom line: While it's neither a must-have upgrade for existing 360 owners nor as feature-packed as the PS3, the Xbox 360 Elite's combination of top-notch gaming and digital media features make it the current game console of choice. Read Review	$189.96 to $505.65

Microsoft Xbox 360 Game Reviews

Editor's rating: 4.5 stars	The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings (Xbox 360) Read Review	$50.27 to $61.41

Editor's rating: 4.5 stars	Battleship (Xbox 360) The bottom line: Bland presentation and sloppy mechanics sink Battleship more effectively than a torpedo ever could. Read Review	$39.99 to $72.01

Editor's rating: 4.5 stars	Rage (Xbox 360) Read Review	$19.50 to $73.18
