Mythe said:
I mean if you can get a hard drive that goes into laptops and ps3s for $50 with more hard drive space, it really shouldn't cost way more for less hard drive space on a 360. You can say "oh it's specially made for the 360 and it can't work on anything else" but Microsoft clearly made sure people could only buy their hard drives so they can make a higher profit and charge whatever they want. It's pretty much what Dell does with their computers. I'm not against Microsoft making money, hell they can charge whatever they want, it's their company. But business wise this move isn't right when their main competitor offers a much cheaper option. |
That's pretty much the idea here. It looks bad, business-wise, since Sony uses regular old laptop HDDs for the PS3. Microsoft is just trying to get more money of the player's pocket, since you can only use their hard drives.
