Yeah it is definitely overpriced. I'm not sure if I would ever even need one. But I wouldn't pay that much for it anyway so I guess it doesn't matter.

Am I going to be downloading HD movies onto my 360's harddrive? No.

Do I need 120GB of space for save games, profile information and demos? No.

All thats inside of the 360 harddrive is a laptop harddrive, Laptop hard drives are expensive.

Even if you were just gonna buy a 80gb laptop harddrive for your Pc it would be like $125 or more.

So stop complaining cause its an actual good deal.

I'm good with the 20gb HDD, no reason to get the Elite for me. I have yet to fill up even half of my HDD and i have 20 360 games.

I'll at least give Nintendo credit for standardizing their system.

The amazing thing is: IT PISSES PEOPLE OFF BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY MUST BUY IT.

Seeing people become pissed off over that is definately a cause for epic laughter.

Not only that, but they think that they or other people are getting "milked" because of this and have the urge to think, "Aww man! I just bought an Xbox360! Are you telling me that I have to buy that now?"

No. Youdon'thave to buy it just because it's comingout.

Agreed. Some people really just don't seem to get that. Mostly fanboys (who are ignorant anyway) do it though.

Well that was sort of my whole point for this thread: I couldn't give less of a rat's ass about the Elite itself, but I'm all about HD movies and whatnot, so I was in the market for a bigger 360 drive.

True, at least they won't damage my wallet. I have the option to ignore VC games.

If youdont want it then dont get that system.  The graphics are the same and it just more memory.  Quit your complaining and shut up.

Well, I guess I just underlined your point then.
