Well i haven`t bought 360 that i was gonna to. And again i see a good choise to wait to buy a new console. It is coming a new and upgraded version of 360 Elite as it`s the new name is. It has some new features.

But the prize isn`t the most pleasent of viev. About 450 American dollars, here in Norway then just about 4600.
That is 150 dollars more than the original. The release here in Norway is 29 april, but it is usual coming earlier in USA so that i have no clue about it.

What do you think about this upgrade.

I send a picture on it.

 To start things off, It's only about $80 more then the premium version. The Elite isn't getting rid of the premium or core either, it's running along side of them so there will be 3 versions. IMO, I could care less about next gen right now, I have a broken 360 that I'm about to have repaired.

But once I get it repaired, I'm just selling it and buying another ps2 and forgetting about next gen until games come out that are worth $60. Until then I'll have plenty of fun with games that are $20 on ps2 and are alot more fun then the $60 ones on xbox and ps3. Most of the hype behind next gen is the graphics but barely any of the games deliver on gameplay. I would rather play awesome games like RE4 or Okami on my ps2. They may not look as good as the newest 360 or ps3 game but at least you know they are good and won't eat a hole in your wallet.

 You can play Okami and RE4 on PS3. :)

Anyway I think this is a ripoff! It's too much money for the stuff they're upgrading. I'd just get a premium and upgrade the hdd instead of paying this much for an elite.

Don't tell me what I can or can't do!

 Is the color change all they're updating? Totally not worth it if the answer is yes.

 I think it's worth it if your just getting an xbox 360. They are making it to compete with the $600 version of the ps3, and by adding HDMI, and doubling the size of the ps3 hard drive, they are sorta knocking it out of the park when it's $100 less

More news i found today about it.
The Sony chief have sad that he think`s this will not make any differences whit the selling market fo microsoft. Well it is the third time they are upgrading it. But do you know that he also have plans on upgrading the PS3.

I think when one console is released it shouldn`t be upgraded.

Oh! And another thing, when i have seen what upgrades on 360 will be. They could have fixed the problem whit the buzzing sound if you now what i mean.

There are some cables and a wireless controller and some more whit the upgraded version and bigger storage place. I think The Katamari King have already pointed to that thing.

 Oh no, the Microsoft company did the Sucky to Upgrade move on their customers. They gave us one with 8 to 11 MB and now they want us to pay 460 dollars for a better one. Heh Please, I'm fine with my XBOX 360 as it is. I don't plan on paying 460 dollars for another one.

Oh yeah DON'T BUY THE UPGRADE, YOUR'E ONLY LETTING THEM GET MORE OF YOUR MONEY. *Shot*
