My gold account is due ad i was thinking of making a US account instead of my Canadian account. Is there a lot more content? I don't care about movies, only about game updates and add-ons, and some demos.

Thanks

The new 65 nm chip should start shipping this fall, reducing the manufacturing cost a lot. Its codenamed Falcon and can be googled. My predictions:

1-They will keep the same casing to save money even though they predict the weight to drop by 50%. They may put the power supply in the casing though.

2-They will ditch the core system, drop the price of the Premium by 50$ only but add HDMI and a bigger harddrive. If the PS3 could do a little better price cuts would be greater.

3-Since the system was originaly released in November, my guess is the cut will come in that same month.

Very little, the system is still mostly sold as a Blue Ray player right now, its a decent player at a good price for movie fanatics, but they don't buy games. Two good exclusives would have made a bigger impact for hardcore gamers, which is what Sony is still aiming at at 500$ for the 60gb version.

Casuals don't buy 500$ gaming systems, hence the term casual.

Dude, the PS3 is the last system that needs more bashing right now, its like kicking a crippled guy in the nuts for no reason. Stop and think for a minute, if there was no Sony, how much would a 360 cost right now? Sony and MS are giants, few other companies on the planet could compete with them so pray they both succeed and keep on fighting for years to come otherwise say hello to 700$ consoles and 100$+ games.

[QUOTE="Yan1978"]I wouldn't im "horribly" mistaken, the black version is limited and right now sold out everywhere. A white elite will take the premiums place late summer or early fall, but what are we suposed to do in the meantime? Was hoping someone would know when a HDMI ready 360 will ship next, either a new batch of blacks, or an early batch of whites.RogueEdge

You are lying your *** off. Microsoft stated the Elite is a permanent edition that will be sold along side the Premium and Core editions. And the Premium won't be getting HDMI.

If you try to say otherwise, provide a link at least.

http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/20/xbox-360-elite-new-black-limited-edition-xbox-with-hdmi-and-120gb-drive/

Heres a quote "Eventually Elite hardware (in white plastics) will take the role of the Xbox Premium. That is to say, after the Elite is launched and sold out, future Xbox Premiums will have 120GB / HDMI."

I may be missinformed or not up to date with the newer headlines, but im not lying. I resent that.
