• Apparently made of plastic, although the heft suggests the right stuff is inside
Value: 94
• If you own a 360 or plan to buy one , $200 to bring yourself into the HD DVD age is a steal
Features: 80
• It's an HD DVD drive with a repurposed DVD remote: there's nothing fancy about it
Performance: 89
• Transforms the Xbox 360 into a mighty HD DVD–crunching machine
Ergonomics: 83
• The hard controls (an eject button) couldn't be simpler; remote operation via the 360 could be
