By Mark Wilson As a wireless, surround sound headset for the Xbox 360, the X41 is at the top of its class (at least partially because it's still the only product in its class).

By Tim Stevens To celebrate the release of Forza Motorsport 2, Microsoft made a big deal about its Wireless Racing Wheel, a cable-free force-feedback controller for racers that was only really wireless if you didn't want force-feedback.

Opinion: Modern Warfare 2: PC Versus 360
Original at Kotaku

By Mike Fahey This having been said, the PC version loses a point to the Xbox 360 as far as local multiplayer options go, with the ability to network multiple 360 consoles together via System Link.

Opinion: PC version of Modern Warfare 2 hacked for the console to be back in the game
Original at GamingNexus

NEWS - My review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is finally done but alas the version I reviewed and was supplied was for the Xbox 360. So while the score reflects that version of the game, I have a feeling if I ever got the PC version to test that I'd be pretty harsh on the changes made to it.
