Just thought that this thread could be a place where people can state their views on the upcoming Xbox 360 Elite. Personally, I'm kinda angry about it. I like being on the bleeding edge of technology (I have a PS3, Xbox 360, and a Wii, plus an 1080p HDTV) and whenever a new piece of gaming hardware is released I feel the urge to get it. Yet, I feel sort of "played" by Microsoft. I feel like they are taking my loyalty towards their products for granted. For people like me, who try to utilize all of the awesome gadgets available to them, I think it is somewhat ludicrous for Microsoft to make me spend $480 on a slightly upgraded (and in my opinion cooler looking) 360 in order to have the latest piece of gaming equipment. Of course, I believe the majority of current 360 owners will not buy an Elite, but nearly everyone will prefer to have one over the current 360. In my position, I feel stuck. I want the Elite, but do not want to spend the money on one, in turn supporting Microsoft's manipulation of their devoted customers who are not afraid to pay premiums.
