[citation][nom]burnley14[/nom]With the ~$60 pricetag of the game, that comes out to $40 for 130 GB of extra space. That actually seems like a reasonable amount to charge.[/citation]
Don't forget the second wireless controller included in this bundle.
 
[citation][nom]ricdiculus[/nom]By a PC:insert new video card 'here' every 3 monthsinsert new CPU every 9 months to a yeardouble ram every 12 monthslocate missing dll file...obtain new Catalyst driver as neededWoops! directx 11 just came out: replace video card and power supply.New BluRay codec requiered to watch latest BD disc.Turn off all non game related processes to increase frame rate...PS3: use it.My brother is a big PC gammer and i stick with a PS3.I just witnessed him upgrade his CPU which needed a new MB that dosent support his previous video card which ment new memory and a power supply with enough umph to run it all, built it, then the game(farcry2 or fallout 3 i think)failed to run correctly even after multiple patches from the game maker and various drivers for the card(4850HD with 1 gig ram). I use pc's all day, and have a nice HTPC that i built myself and am quite happy with. Its just nice to know when i buy a PS3 game it will load itself, maybe update, and then just work.(same for the other consoles i guess as long as there is no RROD) Hey MicroSoft, Why dont you just fix the cooling issue and keep your niffty paint schemes[/citation]

I just upgrade my PC every 3 years usually... I use it everyday anyway, so it's a better investment than a console.
 
[citation][nom]captaincharisma[/nom]anyone who says the PS3 does not have any good games is either not looking for them, a closed minded or brainwashed xbox fanboy, or has another game console anyway with mostly the same games[/citation]

other than the few established game titles on playstation, (Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, etc, etc,) most of the games that people play on the PS3 are also available on the 360. i'm not saying the PS3 sucks, i'm saying that people were unwilling to buy it because of the price tag, and now that it's dropped, it's doing better, but for those of us who bought a 360, we already have a significant investment in our consoles, games, and accessories. i'm not going to buy the new xbox 360. why not? because i don't need a new one, my elite does just fine. i'll buy modern warfare 2, because it looks kickass, and i loved the first installment.

PS3 slims may boost sales, but remember how the PS2 and PSone went slim? i'm glad i have an original PS2, and and Original PSOne somewhere, because the slims SUCKED.

only time will tell if the PS3 slim is any better. but on my A/V rack, i'll gladly spend the shelf space for a 360.
 
All I'm saying is consoles are a lot less hasel to use. maybe my first post was a bit exagerated but i stick by it. And yes i have known people that upgrade at those intervals.I build all my own PC's and have for a while, so I know it takes no time to do it, but it does still take money. In ultimate performence PC wins. But i dont notice enough of a improvment over a console to want to maintaine a PC at 'cutting edge graphic' level of performance. and with no relaese of some of my favorite titles(GodOfWarIII, GT5, to name a few) on PC, its a no brainer for me. I do miss MechWarrior though. :)
Ah hell, it's just a game anyway...
 
Who would buy a Xbox 360 when a PS3 is the same price? 😵 Unless you're one of those FPS noobs (not saying FPS is for noobs, just saying Halo is the noob FPSers game nowadays) still stuck on Halo. 😉

Hell better yet, who would buy a PS3 for $300 when you can build a BETTER performing PC for $400?!
 
Does anybody know if the new 250gb hard drives will be able to be moved onto other xboxs? I know that normal hard drives are but this is a massive hard drive from a limited edition xbox. Is this kind of like the halo 3 xbox that came out in 07.
