  Microsoft Gives 360 Owners a big F.U,

  With the official conformation of the xbox 360 Elite MS has basically said to all owners of current 360 too bad your loss. I own a 360 pro system and was happy with it, but when I first heard about a new 360 coming to the market I became outraged. I quickly learned that the system would include a HDMI port and more importantly a larger HDD. I am still a little confused as to why they wouldn't include a HD-DVD as well but then that would have been an even bigger F.U. not only to current 360 owners but also 360 owners who purchased the add-on drive, which isn't me. But anyway thats not the point. What do all of us current 360 owners do now. Microsoft says they will NOT offer a trade in service of any sort to ease the burden for us but they will happily sell us the HDD for a whopping 179 bucks! I've already put over 500 bucks into my current system with the WiFi adapter and had to buy a memory unit so I could take my saved games to my friends houses on occasion. I don't want to spend another 200 bucks on this thing. And for those of you keeping track that would bring the grand total up to 679 bucks not including extra controllers, xbox live D-subs, countless amounts of batteries, recharging kits to offset the batteries, and ofcourse the cost of games. If I ever did get the new HDD what would I do with my old one. Sell it for $30? I'd never thought I'd say this but the 60GB PS3 is actually a better value for current 360 owners. Thats insane. I guess I'll go and play that now. peace out folks.
