All The Power Of Xbox, and looking even better.
Costs more than a traditional Xbox.
The Microsoft Xbox Crystal Console is no different to the traditional Xbox console, and will set you back about an extra £15 so is it worth it? I would argue yes, you get an extra controller and a much more attractive system. It's well documented particularly on this site the pro's and cons of buying an X box as opposed to PS2 or GameCube and the Xbox's looks have always counted against it. While PS2 have already brought out a silver version and now an aqua version I think the Xbox Crystal now takes the prize for most attractive console. It seems like a well established idea in the gaming world now to regenerate interest in an old system by bring it out in a better colour e.g. Gameboys. Why couldn't console makers show a bit of imagination when they create the original rather than just thinking, 'Grey or Black, what a dilemma.'Ahhh of course it's to make you buy more than one console. While I think few people will or should be tempted to aesthetically upgrade, the Xbox Crystal does bring a whole new appeal to Gamers yet to enjoy the delights of Xbox.
