Wrong the main difference between the Pro and Elite is the fact that one has HDMI out and the other doesn't.

The XBOX 360 Elite for $400 is a joke anyhow.

 

[ryanlord]

Pros have HDMI now.

Pro versions have had hdmi for quite some time now.

Even the Arcade version has HDMI onboard.

heck it would be even better if they just phased out the xbox 360 altogether LOL

The one thing to end this console war would be to have the arcade at $150. It would kill the ps3 except for people that are looking for a blu-ray player of course. People are not buying the ps3 right now except for the people wanting a blu-ray player. For the Wii I admit it has sold the most but I don't consider it a gaming console, not starting a fanboy war just saying what I think.

^ I bought a PS3 because I wanted to play video games, not Blu Ray movies. Most people I know who have a PS3 who are going to buy one are doing for the same reason.

As for the article, smart move my MS. Besides the bigger HDD and color scheme, the Elite offers nothing the newer 360s bring to the table.

I dont think Ive ever watched a BluRay movie on my PS3. But I do watch streamed HD movies and play a hell of a lot of games. I think PS3 has better exclusives than the X360, and dont forget about the RROD.

If they sold the RE5 X360 for cheaper I might get it. Considering it is a confirmed Jasper.

All versions have had HDMI for a while actually >.>

Also, the elite originally was a fixed version of the original and almost never got the ring of death.

Microsoft finally made something that worked and realized it so they are going to stop production.

ignorance runs rampant in this one.

they might be phasing it out because of the ps3 price drop in the near future... 120gb elite, PFFT, why spend $400 on a black console with less features than a $300 console? besides the -40gb, but id rather get the bluray... and pro's price is gonna drop soon, we'll see how this turns up. [watch nintendo drop wii to $150, game over man, GAME OVER]

I bought an elite when it was 449, haven't used it much, still in the box... I'm more into pc gaming i guess
