@radioactivez0r hidden fee may not be the most correct term but it certainly is a fleecing... When the average joe buys a 360, one would assume in this day and age that it has wireless built in.. they purposely piece mealed that JUST to make more money and to have proprietary hardware. When average joe buys a 360, one would think that you could just play direct over the net with someone without having to pay a fee... like every other hardware on the market. When average joe buys a 360, they probably aren't even thinking about switching HD's... but when they do, they suddenly realize not all HD's are equal, and they must pay double for their HD of equivalent size. This isnt even including the above cable or the fact that you have probably sent your system in 3 times on average. It's about time and money. I'm not saying Sony doesn't do what MS does in other areas of business.. but on the PS3, they left all that out fortunately. You can pretend you are getting the better deal... and maybe you do get more use and have more fun.. thats obviously subjective. but in terms of overall payment, in the end... xbox loses. Go try to hash the numbers yourself and you will see. Now, let the "work-arounds" commence.
