Microsoft has released a enw veriosn of there 360 called the elite. earlier code named zephyer or some shit. Anyways this upgraded 360 offers a flat PS3 black color a 120 gig hdd and an HDMI port for a whopping $480. hmm no wireless connection, no hd dvd drive, what gives?. Here are some of my favorite qoutes about this slap in the face from microsoft in there attempt to try and out do the PS3. which will never happen.

Hilary Goldstein, IGN News: Does the extra $80 buy me a system that won't break after two months? No. Eff that.

The lack of an HD-DVD drive is a sign that Microsoft's lost confidence in the format. Calling a bigger hard drive and a new video port "Elite" is a joke. I would recommend against this purchase because in another year-and-a-half there will probably be a new "Extra Elite" version with some true improvements. That Microsoft thinks a 120 gig hard drive is worth $180 is proof that they have their heads up Master Chief's ass.


Mark Ryan Sallee, IGN Guides: I'll say what I told Brudvig last night when he gave me the official news.

In the immortal words of Napoleon Dynamite, "Friggin' idiots!"

is it just me or in the past every console gen have extra periphials that end up cost more money then theyre worth always end up failing?

people dont buy consoles to have to deal with all the things pc gamers deal with. and time and time again the majority of "console expansions" or products intended to "ehance" the experiance on the console fail to make users want to use them.
3 versions of the genisis anyone? why such bad support for multitaps for the first duo of PS? the HDD a flop for ps2? the NES's ROB? or dare i even mention the POWERGLOVE??? the dreamcast modem or microphone??? or even the gamecube modem? the e-reader for GBA???? all the super scopes over time......

gamers dont liek to spend extra money on things they wont use... things like this need to be thought through more thoroughly before they are slammed on us and the only response we can make is WTF?

honestly MS shoudl know better...
