XBox 360 Hard Drive 60GB Live Pack $99

Finally, Microsoft is acting on the importance of having a hard drive. It's bad enough they don't have Blu-Ray. Loading games on the drive will also let it load in shorter time.

I think it's a pretty good deal. But no, you cannot transfer save files by recovering a gamer tag. The only way, I think, is to use that HD transfer cable that they provide if you purchase an Elite...I suppose they will do it for this also.

fellermooty

they betetr i have a TON of saved games

please note

I have sent off for this cable numerous times (as have alot of my friends) when i got my elite and non of them have ever been recieved so please of ypi are thinkin of doing this be warned you may not recieve the cable ever

good deal but still prefer PS3 in terms of options and customizing.

like most people I have 320GB HDD installed in my PS3, which just cost me £55, while a 120GB HDD for X360 cost £120 or £100 in some places.

It's true. The 360 hard drives are actually overpriced, but complain as they might the Xbox fanbase will have to swallow it. It is definitely not a factor in choosing between 360 and PS3, I think...not when you're buying consoles for the games.

But its good that they are encouraging hard drives. My local game store had a transfer cable, so I could transfer content from my old hard drive straight away when I bought my Elite. But really, Microsoft does respond promptly so contact them.

Wow thats actually pretty impressive. I do prefer my 120GB but with the headset and 3 months of Gold makes it a good gift for my brother who is stuck in the stoneage of 20GB and offline gaming...Jstew32

no whenyou retrieve your profile, the saves dont come with it, you need a transfer cableto transfer stuff from 20gig to 60 gig

It likely has a transfer cable in the package if not you can send away for a free one its easy.

Yeah I threw a 160 gig into my 40 gig PS3, it was a pretty good price too, its really lame having to buy so many custom things from MS, its literally the same harddrive, but theres is in a box.. so the price goes up

Funny how I bought a 500gb samsung HDD for $120 and I have me, my wife, 2 nephews that live with me, and their mom all with our own PSN IDs for free. So 5 PSN accounts and a 500 gb HDD for $120 vs paying 5 x $50/yr plus $99 for a puney 60gb HDD. HMM......I wonder which is the better option?!!patriots7672

Not letting so many people use your console for starters.

Why they just log in under their ID when it starts up and this way we can all play games that have autosave without overwriting the other persons game save and we all can keep track of our own trophies collected for each game too and it's all free. Plus massive HDDs for PS3s are dirt cheap.

Not at all, it literally is just a box, since (I hope this isn't mod-able, its not really illegal) there are ways to copy your 360 harddrive content to another laptop/PS3 style harddrive, open up the 360 harddrive box, and swap in the new harddrive you copied the content to, so it literally is just that.
