I was wondering is the 360 elite worth the money. i have a 360 alreaady but is it worth buying the elite. I play my 360 for around 3 hours every week. 

I have a 27 inch samsong tv.

if you already have a 360 imo it's a waste of money.

Not really.  for 480 bucks you get a black 360, bigger HDD, and HDMI ( which you probably cant use anyway)  

 

if you really want a big HDD, jsut buy the standalone one.

heres the reasons to buy it 1. black finish makes the white look dull 2. hdmi is only useful if you have a HDTV 3. 120gb harddrive will mean downloading movies will not fill you drive in 2 seconds 4.it runs slightly cooler and uses slightly less power than before so it will be a cooler runner. 5.its well priced and you do get a lot for $80 more thats a $180 harddrive and hdmi and black finish

I plan on getting one....or whatever the best SKU is come next year. (possibly a Halo system?). I'll be giving this console to my lil bro, so we'll be able to keep in touch while I'm moving to other duty stations.

I have a 1080p tv. So if you have one then yes. But if not, I say no. HD-DVD looks very nice in 1080p. Blue Ray is about the same.

Does anyone know what the elite comes out?

as for your HDMI port.  hmmmm a tricky one. You might have to plug a hdmi cable into ut then into ur console.

i wish i had my elite back.... bought 1 on the 29th launch day and then i took it back thinking it wasnt a good deal... but i bought a pro..andthe elite was so much easyer to set up... all i had to do is plug in the hdmi cable power pack turn on the system i was playing in 1080i.. but when i hooked up my pro system i had to fool with the 360 asystem settings to get 1080i...

 

and the elite made the games look better didnt get as hot as my pro system does now.. and all these free demos and videos i coulda dl every single one with my eilite but on my pro i dl like 8 and my space is almost gone... so go for the elite its worth the extra 80 bucks i know that now :(
