Yep, Microsoft loves to overprice it's proprietary accessories. Welcome to four years ago. :P

Feels good to actually own a next gen system, and i'm not talking about the 360.

Don't think I'll ever have a use for that much space, I've bought about 60 arcade games and am still only at about 75 GB used on my hard drive.

Your talking about the PC because Ps3 or Xbox360 is notconsidered a next gen system.

It says $84.99 but still a good price. I'll probably grab one for my laptop.

It's really sort of a shame that the PS3 and the 360 for that matter don't take 3.5" drives. I just saw a 500 GB Seagate 3.5" for $29 the other day. Although really anything over 250GB on either console is over kill.

Does this not count as trolling, since you're blatantly trying to get 360 fanboys to react. Yes it's obvious that the PS3 has an advantage there, is it really worth starting a thread about?

Is that also not MS own brand :S Or is it interchangeable, not that you need to change a 250 or 200 GB Hard drive for a games console. Unless you enjoy filling it with pictures of Lol catz. Even putting downloaded films on it, it would still take forever to fill up, and then the rental would run out on the film. If you decided to steal the film from the internet, then you have the backup on your PC/Laptop. So Yeh. Pointless to upgrade them, they do what they do well. Hold game saves and demos.

I also don't really see the point in this thread. Maybe this is new news to the TC or something, I don't know. But for the rest of us, this is 4 year old news.

That can't be real, there no way any company in this day and age would rip off it's costumer in such a manner. I'm sure MS sells you Hard Drives for MUCH cheaper then that.

Except that it's not, and it hasn't been proven. You want to see a clear-cut difference in systems? Look at Xbox vs PS2. Even multiplatform games looks considerably better and performed better.
