I just simply can't wait for mine. Even though it might not differ much from the premium, but it sure is nice knowing u will have HDMI, bigger HDD and all your accessories will be black...Sweet!!!

Did you already own the Premium or are you buying the 360 for the first time? I can easily upgrade my HDD to the 120GB when it's released and component is working fine for me. I've already used by my HDMI for devices that I use a lot more often than my 360..and black..meh..not worth the extra money for that..

Waste Of money. I already have a 360, so upgrading is definately not an option for me. Im a big 360 fan, But id rather take that same money and buy a PS3 instead of upgrading.

I plan on getting an Elite when Microsoft releases it with the redesigned chip set included. I don't want another over-heating monster.

If you have a 360, or even if you don't, don't waste your money on a PS3.  I was, emphasis on was, a huge PlayStation fan, but wow did they lose me with the PS3.  Take it from the guy who bought one and was very luckily able to get his money back, don't buy a PS3.

I honestly coudl care less about the 360 Elite.  So what that all the console, controllers, etc. will be in black. I think multiple color consoles are stupid to begin with.  As far as it having HDMI, I don't have an HD TV to take advantage of it.  The TV that my 360 is hooked up to will probably be the 2nd or 3rd TV that gets upgraded to HD in my house when the time comes.  The bigger HDD drive is nice, but since as long as I am able to get it as a seperate add on for my current 360 I don't mind having to do that.  I still have about half of the space remaining on my current HDD cause I don't d/l many demos or Marketplace stuff other than XBLA games.

So in answer to your question no I don't wish I had one already.  I think MS will regret pricing it so close to the low end PS3 that it coudl backfire on them and not sell as well as the think it might.

I wish I did. Now I have content that I can't transfer. I don't know if it's worth buying it yet... The HDMI solves the input problems I have on my TV (since I currently have two component inputs with only one port, and two HDMI ports with no inputs!).

Have any of you guys ordered it yet?  Preorders have been on sale all morning at the Circuit City website.  I only ordered the hard drive myself.  I can do without HDMI.

I want the HDMI port... it should have been on the premium in the first place. I'm not going to spend $480 just for a port though (don't really need the bigger drive).

I have been waiting for this since I heard they were rumors of a new one coming out in like December or something. Hopefully it does come out at the end of the month. Haven't played an online console game in a long time.

If I was buying the 360 now, I would instead opt to wait and try to save some more cash for the Elite model. But that largely being to get more hard drive space off the bat, and that it comes with the complete assortment of output cables I could need for it. I don't have an HDMI-capable set at the moment, but it's nice the Elite packaging provides for that, the Component cables in the Premium and a breakout box for S-Video and composite A/V as well. It reminds me of the Sega Dreamcast, in a good way. :P

I don't have an HDTV and I don't need 100 more gigs of hard drive space when my 20gigs work just fine. I'm not gonna spend $480 for another 360 when I've already got one and I'm damn sure not shelling out $180 for a 120GB hard drive. In my opinion, this move is gonna backfire on Microsoft.

lol.  http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3158279  They did a much more thorough and unbiased job than you did, and the Elite STILL comes in cheaper than the PS3 by about 8$.  And that's if you must have HDDVD and wireless and whatnot, which MS lets you choose to get or not.
Elite: $849.95
PS3: $857.80

My comparisons were what you get out of the box for PS3 as opposed to what you get out of the box for 360 Premium and Elite. To show you that if you want all those down the road that is what you'll have to pay. The price of a 360 headset and component cables will not drop the price comparison by $350 or even $250. You're still getting screwed in the long run for trying to match everything the PS3 has out of the box. Plus, 120GB is quite a bit excessive for a game console. 60GB is stretching it already. I'm biased huh? That's why I own a 360 and not a PS3. Nice one. Buddy. Good call.

Well, last night my controller seemed to start to get finicky with the rechargeable batteries that I have been using. Things seem okay now, so I'm not paying it a whole lot of mind, yet. Thankfully when I bought my 360, I did get the best buy warranty with it, so I should have no-questions-asked replacement if anything did get awry. I suppose if Best Buy starts stocking Elites and I do have to return my console for whatever reason, I could opt to upgrade to the Elite then. But I'm not just going to do that out-of-the-blue, since it'd cost me $80 (paying the difference) in addition to getting another warranty for the new unit, which would make it cost almost as much as buying the 120GB hard drive upgrade.

Waste of money basically if youve already got a 360. Anyone could have a black 360 aswell, all you need is a few quid for a can of spray paint and your away, laughing all the way to the bank because youve saved yourself a pocket full of coinage.

Not me, at all. The Elite is a total waste. You should just go for a PS3 if you are going to waste that much.

RavenSoS
but sony is using only 25 gig single layer blu ray for the games and they are already costing as much as 360 games, but when they double that disk size the price of the games will more than likely go up, and sonys network cant compare to live, no contest. it should be well known now, that a well funded server will work a hell of a lot better than one that isnt so well funded. oh and not to mention with the ps3 you are actually paying 600 for a dvd player. seeing how there are hardly any games out on it worth playing, and or comming out that isnt gonna be on the 360. oh and your little post is a little incorrect, sony is already in the works on trying to make a bigger harddrive( 3rd version of the system ) sony-pissmoney away. MS- atleast your getting something back.
