In conjunction with San Francisco-based Astro Studios and Hers Experimental Design Laboratory Inc. from Osaka, Japan, Microsoft designed the sleek and stylish Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system, which was released in 2005. IBM, ATI and SiS were chosen as technology partners for the design of the Xbox 360 hardware.To understand what the “360″ in the product stands for one has to know Microsoft’s object when designing the Xbox 360. Their goal was to generate a living gaming platform powered by human energy. This entertainment system would offer the users an exclusive experience which would be based on the players’ unique playing style, skill and decisions, rather than the game itself. Consequently, the individual players would become the center of the game, and everything else associated with the game would then revolve around them, matching a 360 degree circle.Knowing that you will be the focus of the game is already an exceptional concept, but there is more. If you always wanted a monster hard drive to store lots of games and movies, and lust for high definition, digital entertainment, the Xbox 360 Elite, or a pre modified (modded) Xbox 360 version should definitely be on top of your shopping list. Imagine what can be accomplished with a 120 GB hard drive! Do not panic, if you already own an Xbox console. Older models can easily be upgraded with a mod chip, which can be conveniently ordered online.For game power, the Xbox 360 has an IBM PowerPC-based Central Processing Unit (CPU) and a custom ATI graphics processor. The Xbox 360 supports all universal variations of composite video (NTSC, PAL), all component video resolutions (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i) and VGA resolutions (from VGA 640×480 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz, to 1024×768 at 50 and 60 Hz, to 1920×1080 at both 50 and 60 Hz).
