<B>Don't have a moving van handy to transport your console to a friend's house?</b>

The X-PAK looks like a piece of carry-on luggage with an Xbox logo prominently displayed. Yes, the case is big. That would of course be due to the fact that the Xbox is a large console. In this case (pun not intended) bigger is better. In order to actually hold the console, as well as everything else this thing can hold it needs some size.

Naki has done a good job in designing a case that not only help to carry the Xbox from one place to another, but also functional in its own right. Perhaps the best part of this would be the ability to leave the console in the case while playing. A back flap is placed for easy connectivity, and side vents allow the console to "breathe" while in operation.

There is room for 16 discs, and pouches for their booklets within the "lid" of the case (accessable by unzipping the X-PAK completely. On the outside is a pocket for controllers, which fits two of them nicely, as well as a couple of memory cards. The only drawback here is if the outside pocket was a little bigger, three controllers could have fit, especially with several third party controllers being slightly smaller that the first party Microsoft offering.

<p align=left><span class="body-1">
The shoulder strap (as well as the carrying handle) is nice and sturdy. The clasps are made out of metal, and well made. You shouldn't find the strap breaking off the case in the middle of running for the bus - aw, who are we kidding? If you're carrying the Xbox, 2 controllers and 16 games, you aren't running, you're weight training.

<p align=left><span class="body-1">
Perhaps my only beef with the X-PAK is the plastic zippers, which at times feel a little cheap. It is clear that this will be the part of the case to wear out first. The walls throughout Naki's offering are extremely sturdy and look like it can take some abuse.

If you are in the market to transport you Xbox from one place to another, this roomy offering is more than top-notch.
