I'm having a great time on it even though I'm a sony fan boy. My older brother has an xbox 360 so xbox live is pretty awesome to play co op games. The point is, I'm going to keep on having fun with my xbox 360 and then get a ps3 as well to compliment my psp. I'm glad MS upgraded their xbox to include hdmi because it connects great with my lcd monitor. The fact is, we have some choice, basically three consoles...not a big deal at all. They are all super fun systems. I just bought my first xbox 360 and it’s the elite. I’m having a great time on it even though I’m a sony fan boy.

THE PS3 it not only has 120HDD, HDMI, and looks the best of any console created... it has a much better build, it now has a very much upgraded motherboard, a better dvd drive, and processor... which this leads to the fact that many people think the 360 elite now has a faster core. this added to the fact that Halo 3 (eventhough im not a halo fan)will soon be released, and microsoft taking the best exclusive PS had to offer, GTA 4, Playstation is DONE!!!! what does playstation have seriously???? a blu ray player... this is a gaming machine we don't need media center so we can look at pictures of our lame vacations and parties on a widescreen. what games does ps3 have???? most of you playstation heads are playing PS2 games on your $600 console, hahaha face it PS3 fanboys.... the PS3 is the dreamcast all over again. the elite just puts the nail in the coffin for…..

If they included the copy cable, most customers would open the box and think WTF? It would just be a waste of money. Besides, if you need it... it's free. Is it really that big of a deal?

The Elite is $80 more... $80 more for HDMI and 120 Gig (plus it being black) That is NOT a ripoff, and it is NOT instended for dumbasses to "upgrade" anyway. YOu are bitching about people who already own a 360 upgrading and how the upgrade is a hassle. What you should be bitching about is the stupidity of someone "upgrading". The Elite was not made for upgraders, it was made as an alternative to anyone getting the PS3 due to HD size or HDMI, so requiring you to order a free cable is not that big of a deal. I am so sick of the haters making such a ruckus of anything MS does while Sony can say the PS3 is more powerful than GOD and no one says boo (except to agree). GET OVER IT.

It is not really an upgrade if you already have a 360. If you already have one, just stick with that one. It seems like the elite is more for the folks who don't own a 360 console yet. Anyways, word is on the street after the elite is sold out, the premium edition will have the 120 gig hdd with HDMI.

The MS monopoly momentum is beyond stopping, AIDS donations in Africa and maybe the UN are all the profit-pinching Balmer will let slip from his clutch. Arrogant smuggness at a high price, MS continues its squeezing. Gates anointed Balmer the chosen one for MS CEO so since then we get greed for profit and the zero customer service.
