I don't plan on downloading any shows, games or movies. All I plan to do with it is play online with my friends and other games that PC doesn't get. What does the rest of Gamespot think?

Im not positive how the pricing is going to be on the 60g system. but if it costs only a little more or the same as the current 20g, i would get a 60g. remember, the 20g only has 12 gigs of actual memory. Doesnt take much to fill that up

Yes....and No. Yes because its a great price. No because of the Hard Drive. With the new update im wondering if I should upgrade my hard drive. I usually dont download much, and if I do......I delete it after I get rid of it. No demos etc. Im wondering if the new things that you can do will take up more space.

well they said the pricing for the 60gb would be the original price of the 20gb which was 349.99$. they decreased the 20gb by 50 bucks and then when those sell out by september or w/e the 60gb will replace it with the tag of 349$ i read it somewhere on xbox.com

If I can choose, I choose 60GB or up. With the new HDD install to boost the loading time on games like Mass Effect and Oblivion, it is totally worth it. And I couldn't download TV shows yet because 20GB is too small for my need.

I didnt think about that. I forgot about being able to download games to your hard drive.....I wonder how many games I can get with my 20 gb. Not many I guess.

and if ur positive on not downloading any movies and other stuff like that (like me) get the 20gb as fast as you could. for 299.99 its a STEAL!!!!!! the 60gb is coming in for ppl that dont want the elite, but still want to download enough movies to satisfy there needs. but if your like me, who doesnt want to download movies and only want occasional demos get the 20gb!!!

hope it helped! :):)
