Oh? I thought that was sued M$ in the past, but really no. Until you said.
So, I wish it is already first time for M$ has been sued for poor
hardware.

I dont know if Microsoft has won the other cases before, but with alot of suitlaws against Microsoft, it is already making the company look bad.

Actually its not really KoTOR3. It's just a different game that is based on the KoTOR series without a single player story mode. It is all MMORPG online.

Xbox 360 60GB Live Starter Pack Arrives This Weekend - Xbox

Seems a new 60GB HDD will be released this weekend for $99. I might pick one up.

Foxrac · 10-29-2008, 09:21 AM

$99 is too overpriced, that's like same price in last 7 years ago.

$60 will better for sure.

I'm happy with 120 GB HDD.

I agree but at least its better than $150 120GB hard drive. I will most likely pick this one up as well.

Who knows when, since the holidays shopping season is near, and I dont quite have a job yet so money is still pretty tight. I have to be careful on spend it for my friends and family first before myself.

Dr. Strangelove · 10-29-2008, 05:00 PM

120 GB hDD 360 is $180. I might pick this 60GB bundle up. Not too sure.

Hmmm something's not right...it doesnt even have the transfer cable where you can transfer data from the old hard drive to the new hard drive.

imdeafsowhat · 10-30-2008, 05:12 PM

Rip off.

Yep it is obviously a rip off. Microsoft only wanted us to pay more for the 120GB Hard drive that has the transfer cable.

The 60GB hard drive bundle includes the headset and the ethernet cable...seriously who needs a fucking ethernet cable? It can still be bought seperately and they are a hella lot cheaper.

What a brillant plan, Microsoft.

I'm still not going to pay $150 for the 120GB anyway.

Dr. Strangelove · 10-31-2008, 12:31 PM

Whoa, thanks for the link, Pacman. I remeber it being 180, but with itbeing ONLY 150, 50 more than the 60gb, I think I'll opt for that instead. Steel, the 60gb is marketed in mind of Core owners, so that may explain why there isn't a transfer cable. Microsoft also probably wanted to save $5 on production too, lol.

imdeafsowhat · 10-31-2008, 02:04 PM

Try configuring your xbox using window media center, and see if you can adjust by transferring your memory. I know it can be possible, anything is possible.

I don't think Microsoft will go down in price for a long time, with the 60GB at $100. One noticeable difference so far is that my XBLA games load almost instanteously, as opposed to 30+ seconds to load in the games section of my dashboard. I think I will feel the difference of a 120GB when the update comes november 19, but probably not too much.

The Core version was a very stupid idea at the begining. Obviously when you buy an Xbox360 you NEED an hard drive to save data thru games and xbox live with download content. Core is completely useless and they should've discontinued them and stay on with other versions that has the hard drive included. At least Sony didnt release a PS3 that lacks the hard drive.

Microsoft made a big mistake when it comes to consoles with and without hard drives making it more difficult for the company and the costumers.

Starting next generation, they BETTER stick to one console that has the hard drive included.

Alot of Xbox owners are very disappointed with the 60GB bundle idea lacking the transfer cable, as they feel they are being forced to buy the 120GB hard drive instead.

Mircosoft dont really seem to show much respect to the gamers that much anymore.

Seriously, Sega...just let Sonic RIP. He went thru enough.

Sonic Unleashed for Xbox 360 - Sonic Unleashed Xbox360 Game - Sonic Unleashed Xbox 360 Video Game

Ever since Sega "died" and went out of the hardware business and only making games...they've only made sonic alot worse than ever.

Much worse since Sonic Heroes...what the fuck is wrong with you Sega? showing lack of respect to Sega's former mascot.

Steel X · 12-15-2008, 08:14 PM

I've tried the Sonic Unleashed demo on Xbox live...of course, I have to say that level is pretty impressive...brings back the old feelings of the orginal Sonic Adventure during the good ol' Dreamcast days...Sonic is faster, wilder, and definetly out of control. He is the true definiton of speed.

However, I have not played the "night time" levels where Sonic morph into a "werehog"

thou I have heard Sonic as the werehog definetly suck balls, which is not very surprising. If Sega has NOT put in Sonic as the werehog, it proably would've saved the company by brining Sonic the way he is SUPPOSED to be. He is all about SPEED.

They were pretty close, but didnt make the cut so...Sega failed again. Perhas Sega should become the offical seal of epic fail in videogames.
