Getting An Xbox360

[kcnychief]

I'll be getting the elite, mostly for reasons mentioned in this thread. But, honestly, I also prefer black hardware :smoker:

The fact is, hard disks don't have anything to do with "on-demand" data. Levels might load faster, but that is it. It is the same way with PCs where faster hard disks and RAID do nothing but load levels faster. Devil May Cry 4 as I mentioned required 20 minutes of HD installation on the PS3, yet the 360 version was smoother. Hard disks are for storage only not improving in-game performance when everything is loaded. If you are going to be storing lots of things on it, isn't MS bringing a 1TB 360 later this year? ... along with that helmet and the wood panel 360?

The Game.co.uk 360 says it's a Premium and yeah, a Premium does have an HD and a headset. Both are the same type of 360s.

Once you get yer 360, try this mod. This thing looks way cool.

Play the video on the page or go to first page to read through the mod.

you can attached USB External HDDs. The smaller HDD is fine for now. All the new XBOX 360s come with HDMI, even Arcade. All games play on All systems, no need to get "elite" for any reason other than the color and if you're into having newer hardware.

if its going to be a media player for your home theatre, any of them will work. USB HDDs are relatively cheap.
