Wi-Fi Reciever Needs To Be Built-in, I don't Care About Prices

It's too late for me now but for any future xbox's and 360's, they just NEED built-in Wi-Fi

Microsoft's motto: Why have it built in when we can sell it as an add-on for more money?

Though people complain, theres not enough backlash to change anything.

People complain, yet they still buy the adapter because they want to play online.

Why would Microsoft change anything as long as people are buying.

When people stop buying is when things will change.

I have thought about going wi-fi,but for the money I just bought a cat 6 ethernet cable.I have 10meg sec cable internet so i know it wont slow down with the the ethernet cable.But it would be nice to have wi-fi built in for the option,but then again they can get away with charging $90 for it.

i agree with the whole built in Wi-Fi thing and its not too late but... i sorta care about prices i dont want to spend like another $300 just to buy another Xbox 360 that has bulit in Wi-Fi when you can just buy the Wi-Fi adapter for $100....hey thats an idea why dont people just buy the Wi-Fi Adapter?!

charging extra for accessories was a way for MS to make money when they were losing money on each console... they just need to bring some of those prices down now though, since they can make profit on the 360 these days.

im glad they didnt

if they did it would make the 360 cost more for something i wouldnt use

i perfer a direct,tangible connection (that doesnt randomly disconnect, in my experience atleast)

Well I have to use a WiFi adapter. Im not drilling a hole from the basement to the top floor.

Exactly. Not everybody wants a Wi-Fi connection and if they had one built-in, the console would cost more even if you didn't want that feature.

Microsoft gives you the option. One of them is the official Microsoft wireless adapter, but its hardly the only option, even if you want to go wireless.

I would suggest that in the future, they have one spec of Xbox that has it built-in, but have lesser models that dont have it, kinda like they did with the hard drives.

You could use a network extender.

Same here - I wouldn't use wireless if it was built in, since I much prefer the reliability and consistent speed of my wired connection

Having it built in would just raise the price of the console for something I don't want. If you want it, then pay more to get it.

The only thing that was optional with this generation that really needs to be included as standard is the harddrive. If all consoles have the harddrive then all games can take advantage of it, whereas now games have to be able to work without it and it can be a limitation.

I am glad they didn't and I know other people who are glad as well. Why pay for something your not going to use. Now if they included Wi-Fi and the price was the same then great but I don't think that would be the case.

Also, I wouldn't play games online with a wireless connection. Wired is just much better.
