Thats a ton of Bull jacking the price up to 479 just for HDMI and 100Gb of Memory.

I still havnt seen anyone Waste the 20gigs that was on the original HDD anyway, and I know like 5 people with 360s and they use em every non-working/Eating/Sleeping Moment.

I think MS is planning on releasing more movie and demo downloads through XBL or something. So they figure people will need more HDD space. But really, not much point unless you plan on putting your own movies on it (who bould buy a movie you can only play on a 360?). I could see myself putting Port Washington and Top Gear episodes on it... :P But even then, a 20GB would work for me.

what? when did they say that that sucks if its true because this is what was pulling me to get a 360 but if its going to be expensive already the price will only go up more if its limited

No WiFi OR HD-DVD player built-in? Micro$oft needs to pull their head out of their ass and include this stuff standard; hell, even the Wii has WiFi! I mean, the only reason I bought my 360 was for online, and I'm now having to shell out $100 extra for a WiFi adapter to play online with the damn thing. *Hugs Wii for putting in WiFi*

you know you can use other usb wifi adapters that cost like 30 bucks :roll: but i totally agree. though i think hd dvd will be forgotten soon enough and itll be just unneeded built in sort of like the genesis the 32x was pretty cool to have as an accesory but if they had made the neptune people wouldve been like "whats the point?"
