well guys ive been trying to decide,
I want to buy my new computer (3000$)
but lately i've been thinking i should put that off and get a 360 first and wait till fall to buy a new computer because new parts come out then anyways, just a few questions, does it still look good on a standard def tv, and is it possible to upgrade the hard drive without a usb one (it is just a laptop sata drive correct?) or if not can you play music and videos from a usb hard drive, etc, and let me know some cool things that will make me want a 360 even more haha

Save your money for now frozenfire and grab yourself one of the new Xbox 360 Elites:
Xbox 360 Elite
And yes the Xbox looks very good even on standard def and with the above package you get a 120gb HD so no need to upgrade the drive. _________________________________________________________ JAy3k1

I was just about to type what JAy3k1 typed so now I don't have to. DITTO!!
Edit:
I'll add that you can look at pics and hear your songs on a USB drive.

Yea think of it this way, for 80 bucks more, you get hooked up. Wish they had em on sale when I bought my pro. Would have been nice, but all I will do is mod the hdd I got now, so no need to buy a 120 gig for me. I dont have hdmi anyways so im good to go. If I wanted a black shell, I would have purchased one along time ago.

The only thing that's different is the 120GB hard drive and the HDMI right?? Couldn't we just go out and buy the larger hard drive separate, i really don't care too much about HDMI.. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3

One of my buddies told me that EB will give you $300 credit on the elite when you trade in your premium, if that's true then your still left with a $250 difference if you include a service plan.. The console is going for $479 right, i thought about using my service plan at EB for the new one but they will only replace a premium 360 with another premium.. That sucks... _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3
