lazria Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I'm kinda annoyed @ Mircosucks for their "Elite" system. I just bought my 360 less than 4 months ago - ran over $400 and now, the Elite is just $480 w/ the freaking large HDD. It will run me $180 more just to get that blinking HDD, and then I have to deal w/ the "sharing" issue (only the person who purchased online content can use said online content, when it was before anyone on said xbox could use. IE: i buy theme and BF uses, now he wouldn't be able too)Grrr... the only thing with the Elite I would really like is the true HDMI port, but you still need the HD player. Grr....

DizzyGuy Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 Yeah, it doesn't have the built in HD player... but now they still give gamers the CHOICE whether they want to pay for that technology or not. Atleast if you get the new HD for it, it has migration cables to switch everything. Think of it this way, HD for the premium costs $100... and it cost $400... the HD for the elite costs $180 and the system costs $480... I mean, you can try to sell your old HD or something worst case... but I almost did the same thing as you and bought the premium a while back, glad that I waited.And yes, GoD, the elite does amuse me alot, you'll like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpimpitox Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 i was gonna make a new post about this but since there is one ill post here. i bought a 360 elite yesterday! such a great buy considering i didnt have a 360 prior to the elite. i got an HD TV so the HDMI cables is another huge plus! i havent set it up yet...laziness and wow gets in the way but ill set it up tonite and post my xbox live gamer tag. i bought oblivion for it cuz i wanted a game that will last me a while and that rocks hard. any other game suggestions. gears of war i am getting for sure and F.E.A.R. what do you guys recommend. i like every genre so im up for anything! Wii60 FTW!!!!! and it cost less than a damn PS3 which i was like 10 seconds from buying until the gamestop employee talked me outta letting me know that DMC4 and MGS4 were coming to the 360 as well. ill miss playin FF13 but ohh well...heh maybe ill find a ps3 in the bargain bin with the way they are goin lol.

lazria Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 See if they had added that silly HD player to the Elite, my Pro would have been traded in on the day they came out. We bought a new toshiba DLP about 1 month before we got the 360. It just erks me that now, if I want the 120gb hdd, I have to pop out an addiational 179.99 on top of the 400 I already spent on a system that's not even 4 months old! not saying I'm not happy w/ my system (just got bullet witch tonight), I just would have waited if I had know they were coming out with the Elite. The PS3 is on my list, but I ain't paying that much for no video game console, not when I need a new PC and it costs the same. My biggest want - a Wii.....! I so freaking want one!!!!

Skimo Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 so whats all new? I have a reg. 360 and I seen an elite in the store today, I like the fact they're black, unless the ones I seen were black. Is it worth it to upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofdavid Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 So, wait, if I buy the HD-DVD drive, I can use that to someone hook up my 360 into being just as good as the elite, minus the hard drive?Are there any hacks to set up a portable hard drive to use instead of either XBOX "licensed" 360 HDs? Yea, video game technology ftl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS3 here in florida is sold out everytime i go to EBgames. the Wii's are still in Ebgames, seems like their having to sold down on the sales. I dunno, its different in every location.If people tell you the PS3 overheats blah blah blah. I have left my ps3 on for an excess of 25+days. Nothing. Still runs hard. Also G-D there are hacks for the HD-Drive for the 360, but its only for the drive itself. I mean people bitch and moan bout the price now LOOK at the new price of the xbox EliteXbox Elite: $480 HD Drive: $180 Now do the math, thats more than the PS3.

However you will still need to get your hands on a 2.5 inch hard drive that is a nearly identical model to the offcial ones. The 120 gig drive you will need costs about $80. I say this along with the disclaimer that hacks such as this may get your XBL account banned down the road.Here is the link if you wish to learn more:http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?sho...599533&st=0- misterbeetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
