Elite made for a reason?

You think that later on games will be made that need the larger hard drive space? I mean look at MGS4 for PS3. They say that games gonna take up an insane amount of space on the hard drive. So i'm thinkin that maybe later down the road a larger hard drive will be required for certain 360 games. What ya'll think bout this?

I want a bigger hard drive so i can keep like 20 demos, 50 arcade games, a season of RvB, and that episode of south park.

Indi games being made for XBL are also going to take up a bit of room.

im srry i didnt read it i was distracted by ur picsonofabear17

Hah, yeah this is a nice pic.

Damn, that girl's ass is so round 

ya the elite was made for the iptv feature.  HDMI so u can get optimal Picture and Audio, Bigger Hard Drive for recording tv shows and HD Movie downloads.SBurns22

optimal picture is with hdmi, but the audio is still better through the optical output. because it is through a beam of light, and nothing we have so far, is faster than light. no wire. period. meaning it can carry way more data. at a higher speed.

The main reason the Elite was made was to allow HD-DVD movie downloads on the harddrive. This service is becoming more avalaliable and people need more space to save there shows. Thats why it was released. For the HDMI input thats just there to allow people who have a 1080P TV to play games in 1080P.

Also to the person who said a game never goes over 1.5 gigs. Your wrong average games right now are 4-6 Gigs. I dont know how but sooner or later microsoft will see a problem by using DVD as there format for games. 

No.

The features of Elite are aimed at someone using their Xbox 360 for media center functions, not at the average gamer. There will *never* be a situation where you need more than the 20gb hard drive to play games at their best.

The extra storage space is really for someone who downloads a lot of arcade games, demos, movies, and records tons of in-game footage, and wants to have it all readily accessible simultaneously on their hard drive. However, you can re-download anything, so if you delete a few demos, you can still do the same thing that Elite owners can do.

HDMI DOES NOT provide  a better picture than component cables, read AVS, do serious research, get your HDTV professionally calibrated, and then compare them side-by-side and you'll find there will be no difference. Or take the word of Microsoft, who have themselves stated that there is no visual quality difference.
