lol... only way i buy that 4gb xbox is when microsoft puts kinect in it and has 0 plans to put it in the 250gb model... why? because i would save 20 after i bought 250gb hard drive for it. 300 4gb kinect model plsy 130 for 250gb hard drive=20 dollar save vs 300 for 250gb xbox + 150= 450
As of now it seems like the 4gb will save you money at first, but some features will not be available (which some may not know).
Want to run Co-op through the Halo Reach campaign? With the 4gb you will not be able to, as it requires an actual Microsoft HDD to be installed within your system to do so. The lack of space may get to you as well, although USB thumb drives may be able to alleviate that problem.
Just figure I give a quick heads up as Sept. 14 is right around the corner :)
Honestly, get the 4GB and see if you can live with it, it can't use USB drives which is a rip off but its a great value at its price, and buy a 250GB HDD later on eBay, its $130 retail but you can probably get it on eBay in a few weeks or now for less than $100 (250GB old 360 HDDs go for $75 on eBay)
I'd buy the 4GB if i had a choice and then buy a HDD later online coz the matte finish, i hate the glossy finish
Though i still don't see why MS had to destroy all their old accessories with the Slim. I knew that WiFi would be in it, but new HDDs? They could've still made it shorter, and slighlty thinner while still working with old HDDs
I have the 4GB S and yes, you can use USB Flsh drives. I have a 4GB and a 16GB I use with it now. That being said, I had a little /rage when I found that they do NOT count as a HDD and therefor you can't play the Halo games co-op. I like the Matte finish better, but I would have gone with the 250GB had I known the 4GB of internal memory was not considered a HDD. That's really lame, but it IS Microsoft and they would do something like that. Whatever, sell my now fixed Pro and a game or two and I'll have paid for the HDD.
