Should be noted hard drives aren't essential for the 360 but mandatory for PS3. 360 users that don't have a hard drive but want to download things can just use USB memory sticks as well. |
But any gamer would tell you that if you're going to buy an Xbox 360, you might as well go "big" and buy a 250GB version due to encroaching limitation with the 4GB version such as:

As a gamer, don't half-ass it, right?
And, yes you do have the option of buying an Xbox 360 PROPRIETARY USB such as the Xbox 360 - 16GB 2.0 Flash Drive by Sandisk for only $30 via Amazon. But you get this NON-PROPRIETARY Western Digital 500GB 2.5 SATA for $55 also from Amazon during the time of this writing. Much better value here with hard drive prices constantly dropping. So my successful counter argument and point that "Owning a console which allows the user to purchase and self-install a non-proprietary relatively inexpensive 2.5 SATA hard drive is NOT extreme. It's smart shopping" still holds true and still stands.
