Why should Xbox have to pay more? 200 ms points = $2.50

@ FNG

I have replaced my ps3's HDD twice and Have a WD Velociraptor 300GB in my PC ( a 2.5"HDD in a 3.5" heatsink) so I know what they look like when I get back from work I will post a link to pictures of the three different sizes and waht it looks like when you try to put a 360 HDD in the PS3 as well as a PS3 HDD in the 360 enclosure.

Also you could use any size HDD with any amount of storage capacity but your still limited to the firmwares allowed 107Gb and you wont get it back in that case unless its a 1.8"

It's not a standard laptop HDD, laptop HDD's are 2.5" drive (same as PS3). While M$ went with a 1.8" drive akin to Ipod Classics or Zunes.

They could have gone bigger if they internalized but with all the heat issues thank god they didn't. You can find a 2.5" 500GB HDD for under $100.

FYI as of 9-10-08 the largest 1.8" announced was a Toshiba 240GB I found one priced at $200. The cheapest 120GB I could find were $120. M$ would probably sell it for 250 - 300 judging current $1 per GB they use on their other sizes.

120GB is fine for me plus I don't want to pay 2 or 3 times the price for half the size of one I could get for my PS3.

No Scene it? ripped of Buzz for consoles. Buzz was released in europe for the PS2 before the even announced Scene it? and the controllers are a dead ringer.

@ ragnarok

Xbox Live accually has quite a few Disney movies in HD for its download service. as for a hd-dvd add on the currwent console is cheaper; unless the Hd-dvd player or the console recieve a $100 price drop its not.


Maybe this set includes the Rumble-axis controller?
