I can't think of 10 but some things I don't like include-

1. RROD

2. DRE, disc related problems

3. Paying for XBL Gold. It's a rip-off, I don't care what anyone says.

4. MS's lack of 1st party games/developers. Partly why the 2009 lineup is looking quite sparse at the moment.

5. It's too noisy.

6. Having to use batteries. And there's no message that pops up on screen to warn you when the battery is about to run out. Having to buy the play and charge kit seperately sucks.

7. No built in wifi, the adapter is quite expensive.

^Still a great machine though, it just has flaws like any other console.

 

3.  Fair enough, I and many others would rather pay for a good service we use

5.  Install to HDD and in my case its quieter than my PS3

6.  Although there is no message on screen, when the batteries are getting low the guide button LED's start to cyle warning you.  I've never ran out of battery power while playing.

Rest of your points were justified quite rightly.  I only highlighted 5 & 6 to add balance that it isn't always the case.  Point 3 was just differentiating my view to yours on the subject.

 

About 5, that's true. I installed Fable 2 and it's much quieter. It's just that I only have a 20GB hard drive and with the space already taken up, I can only install 1 game at a time. As for 6, I had forgotten about that so thanks. I still think a message appearing on screen would be better, something MS could add in an update.
