I just wondered if it has a quieter DVD drive as this seems to be the only real complaint of the 360.Leo Laporte brings this up every chance he has ! Though deep down he is just anti-MSFT :) And when are the 65nm cpu models going to ship? They would run cooler and quiter.

Considering the huge blunders sony has made, microsoft really has done extremely well by comparison, but considering how much more ambitious home is than xbox live, considering online is free with sony, and considering that sony pays to host servers that are lag free (live's are peer to peer) microsoft really isn't trying all that hard to exploit their current weaknesses...

and now they've adopted a weakness, by raising the price of the console even higher.

the 360, back in 2005 should have launched with---

1- no multiple SKU's. this confuses the customer

2- free xbox live- hard core gamers might be willing to pay, but nobody else will. microsoft should be trying to attract more people to the console, not trying to nickle and dime the ones already using it. peer to peer gaming costs you nothing MS, everyone knows it.

3- HDMI support, VGA support, Optical out built on the console, DVI support.

so many people would buy this console if it worked on pc monitors out of the box. i have alot of friends who play my 360, who say they would buy it if they had an HDTV... and they've got a widescreen pc monitor...

did microsoft not try to sell this upgrade as a seperate cable, maybe this friend of mine would know it works on pc monitors, maybe the console would be more popular, maybe less people would wrongely think they don't have a display in their home that supports 720P

time and time again, microsoft has attempted to rip off gamers, and while i realize they are losing money off each console sold, the petty things they try to sell seperately combine to become the reason the console won't reach ps1 or ps2 sales numbers.

microsoft should be aiming for mass market, instead the corporate philosophy is, lets try to get 30 million people to buy the console, and then make our money back by selling a 20 gig hard drive for 100$ when it only costs us 20$, by selling a wireless adapter for 100$ while it only costs us 10, while selling a VGA cable for 40$ when it only costs us 5$.

i could go on, but i shouldn't.

microsoft has made this into the hardcore console.

they could remedy that with the elite, right now. drop the price 80$, add in wifi to make going online easy, add in more optical and audio support so everyone with a cheap pc monitor can experience high def....

it wouldn't be so hard, but microsoft just doesn't want to win this one.

Well that problem is not prevolent, and only really affected new machines at launch, however the 360 does have overheating issues, so much so that if you are going to play for extended periods it would be wise to buy one of those heat extraction attachments from third parties.

The new 360 has not had it's internal compostion re jigged therefore it will still be prone as it once was, simply playing in a well ventilated room and not placing your XBOX on the carpet should prevent these problems that few have. LS

You know how a lot of people are complaining about there Xbox 360 because it keeps breaking down. Well, I have a question. Will the new Xbox 360 Elite keep breaking down like the non-Elite 360? Because I'm thinking of buying a Xbox 360 Elite so I can play Gears of War. But then again if the Elite will break down like the non-Elite 360, I might not buy a 360 considering I know some people who have a 360 and I can just play Gears of War with their 360s.

I will be getting this despite a 360 already residing in my home (not mine:), i recently bought a Bravia TV and getting this will be the best way to take advantage of it, it also looks more aesthetically pleasing to the eye in black. Thanks for the exclusive vid Tina. LS

What a joke, anyone that is going to trade in their premium system for this "too late and no HD unit" should be kick in the nutts

I currently own a "Premium 360".The "Elite" move mystifies me. If you had included the HD-DVD I could see it. Here is what needs to happen(in my opinion). Phase out the "Core" system, redesign the "Premium" to include the smaller chipset and HDMI, make the price $299.99. The "Elite" sytem also needs the smaller chipset and price it at $399.99. Microsoft is in a prime position to grow their market share and keep it from Sony, but they seem unwilling to make the moves to do it.

Actually, the price of the Elite is still lower than that of the PS3. Your calculation of buying an older Xbox 360 when it came out and now buying a bigger drive discounts the value of being able to play games online for a year and a half while the PS3 came to be.

Sort of a dick move Microsoft, I love you guys, but come on. These "Elite" "upgrades" should have been standard at launch. Now you are forcing your consumers that alread paid $400 bucks at launch to pay another $180 for a more reasonalble size hard drive. So now its like paying $580 for a 360 without a HDMI port. Thanks a lot Microsoft. No more using the price point against the PS3 to sell your system.

I see no problem with selling an Elite console as from what I understand there have been quite a few people holding off on purchasing a 360 becasuse they wanted HDMI and even the larger hard drive. And I am totally happy with my 360 as well and have no impending need for HDMI at this point, but the hard drive being sold separately may be something I will consider picking up at some point. Though it does seem a bit pricey at $180, almost half the price of the premium system.

Hey, first time visiting this site but nice video of the new Xbox 360 Elite. Must admit though I think I was more impressed with Tina, she's hot.

Thanks for the video.

I'm not sure why there's so much negativity surrounding the Xbox360 Elite and the new hard drive. I think it's a good move for the Xbox team and definitely a step in the right direction. It's definitely a good option for future buyers.

As for me, I might pick up the 120gb hard drive. I'm in no need of an HDMI output and a black finish, I'm 150% happy with my current launch day console.
