Microsoft's newly angular funbox has improved, but makes some hardcore-unfriendly sacrifices

We love the Xbox 360. Its controller is the best ever, it has the best online features, and the way it compresses our gaming careers into a single number is both exhilarating and infuriating. And we love the new Xbox 360 S as well, with its smaller size, race car looks, and much quieter fan. But after some time with it, we’ve noticed a few things that could stand to be enhanced even more, as well as a few “improvements” that simply aren’t. These quibbles won’t matter to everyone, but if they’re important to you, think twice before pulling the trigger on this new hotness.

I was the founding Executive Editor/Editor in Chief here at GR, charged with making sure we published great stories every day without burning down the building or getting sued. Which isn't nearly as easy as you might imagine. I don't work for GR any longer, but I still come here - why wouldn't I? It's awesome. I'm a fairly average person who has nursed an above average love of video games since I first played Pong just over 30 years ago. I entered the games journalism world as a freelancer and have since been on staff at the magazines Next Generation and PSM before coming over to GamesRadar. Outside of gaming, I also love music (especially classic metal and hard rock), my lovely wife, my pet pig Bacon, Japanese monster movies, and my dented, now dearly departed '89 Ranger pickup truck. I pray sincerely. I cheer for the Bears, Bulls, and White Sox. And behind Tyler Nagata, I am probably the GR staffer least likely to get arrested... again.
