Free upgrade or fuck you.

what they need to do is lower the prices of the accessories, shit is fucking overpriced.

It'd better be $300.

Agreed. $180 for the 120GB HDD is lulz worthy. They need to knock about $100 of that. $50 for a standard controller is ridiculous too. And $100 for a wireless internet adapter?  :-\

But frankly though, I think 20GB is big enough for a standard HDD. I've got like 20 XBLA games, a couple of demos, 50 game saves, all the Oblivion DLC, and I still have plenty of room. The only thing that's going to take up a lot of room is videos, and and if you want to have a lot of videos saved, 60GB probably isn't going to be enough either.

Freakin' 100 bucks for a wireless dongle.  What the heck, MS?!

xbox originals take shit load of space if you are into that and with each dlc and maps, you will need more space eventually, more than 20gig at least.

MS probably will cut 20$ though, fucking greedy bastards  :maf

Maybe it is a good thing that I can't afford a 360 just yet. Put wifi in that fucker, sell it for $300, and I am so in.

what the fuck am i gonna do with 60 GB?

right now i barely use anything on my harddrive even with saves and xbox live games.  i damn sure aint gonna be watching no fuckin movies on an xbox when i can get it faster and cheaper at the video store down the street.  other than that the extra space is USELESS.
