This what I was worried about MS. Like I said I owned an xbox, and now a premium xbox 360 and they were doing such a good job with giving us what we wanted with games, just to bring us an Elite version. Elite what? Elite Milkage?

 First off I bought an xbox, thinking it will be good, and they never had many good games, which ps2 had all the great games, but I still loved halo and ninja gaiden and loved the system because of xbox live it was a new expirience for me playing online with other people, but this only lasted 4 years and then they brang out the xbox 360 and abandoned the xbox.

So I bought an xbox 360 and yes I have been enjoying alot of the games for it with the nice library of games the xbox 360 offered and xbox live since thats why I love my xbox 360 and just when u think u have what u wanted in your xbox 360, MS turns around and brings a Elite version, and now I feel ripped off because for 80 dollars more I couldve had an HDMI cord and HDMI output and 100 more gb if I just waited, and to top it off, they just had to wait until they sold over 10 million xbox 360's to do this. Man MS can go take some1 elses is money but I aint buying dis piece of sh** elite version because u know what I have a ps3 already and there is no need for this elite-milkage, and yes I will keep my premium console and play your games on my premium xbox 360. I mean who knows we might buy this version and a year from now they add an hd-dvd with the elite part 2 version. Anyways have fun milking the rest of your fanbase but I am gonna stick with my premium and my ps3. :)

I'm so glad I didn't buy the original 360. When the "elite" comes out I may actually think about it depending on the quality of the new unit. I'll wait and see how things turn out with the new hardware.

It doesn't matter what they add. If it's what you have, except better, then I'm going to look back on this Elite nonsense and laugh.

Boo Freakin' Hoo. Sony makes their consoles smaller, FOUR YEARS after the initial consoles release. This is only a year and a half after the release of the 360. Can we expect a Xbox Elite 2 with wifi in another year?

And how is that, when I own every system besides a wii, and that is only because they dont have any in stock in my area, and besides, if u are a xbox 360 owner and not pissed off at this, then u must be a fanboy, because that is a slap to the face of all of us who own the previous versions of xbox 360's and then they decide to bring another version with added features to it, and others who buy it only have to spend 80 more dollars more then what we already paid for a rip-off version, yes I am gonna be mad. If u aint mad then u are some1 who prolly only owns a xbox 360 and is a fanboy, so dont come tell me I make ff look bad.

Why does that matter? Whether it's four years or tomorrow, they'd still be releasing another version.

The problem is... that sony doesnt add stuff that the original consoles cant support. The slim had a built in ethernet port? You can buy an adapter for the fat PS2 for 20 bucks easily. The original 360 cant support HDMI.. If MS gives me an adapter to convert Componant to HDMI, Ill stop my !@#$ing.

...Alright. I suppose if you really wanted HDMI, that's a valid complaint.

Everything Microsoft has to offer is milking.  I almost can't blame them, after losing so much money on the original Xbox I'd be over pricing my peripherals, too.  The 360 premium should be $300 at the most, and the new elite should only be $400.  The "core" 360 should be abolished, its an inferior and embarrassing version of the 360 that never should have existed.

That would of been a better thing to do, but man its like we got screwed, because we already spent 400 on one and then they come with this, man I dont even know anymore, im still pissed off at MS. Hopefully they see all the complaints and let us return these versions and get an elite, that would be fair enough in my angry mind right about now.

In about six years:lol:

 

Plus PS3's hardware does not breakdown like 360's, I hear people are leaving their PS3's for 15 hours straight for that folding@home thing, let's see 360 do that without causing a nuclear explosion:P

Calm down. You can buy the XBOX 360 Ultra Package. It's coming around summer, so it'll sport a yellow color. With 300GB, and 6 months free of XBOX Live Gold, and packaged into the harddrive are 10 arcade games. It will also sport a free HD-DVD drive that's yellow, and have TWO HDMI ports, that are both yellow looking. The price you ask? $500. Sounds cheap and rushed, right?

Are you kidding? How often are you allowed to return your standard DVD copy of a movie for the special edition that launches 4 months later for a few extra dollars? Its all about milking the customer! Heck, I wouldn't even be surprised if Microsoft later this year releases yet another new 360 with even more features (Wifi build in, for one) to milk even more customers. Now, being tech savvy I know that I don't have to buy the official $100 wifi 360 adapter, but how many regular, non-tech-savvy 360 customers really know that, and are going to get ripped off?

Technology gets improved. Its a fact of life. Do you demand that your Car Dealer upgrades your car every time a new model comes out? If you don't have a 1080p TV, then you don't need HDMI. Even then, there's only a couple of 1080p games available at the moment anyway. As for the larger hard drive, you can "upgrade" and buy this seperately so I'm not sure what your complaint is, really.
