I'd be surprised if the $399 price included less than 500GB of HDD space.

That said, if they took the same approach as they did with the PS3 for internal storage upgrades, it wouldn't be much of an issue either way. I'll be pretty annoyed if they do the Xbox 360 approach of proprietary HDD cartridges.


If they include a 500GB HDD it'd be even better. Hard drives aren't as expensive as they used to be, so they should be able to put it in.


the difference between a 500gb and a 1tb was only $20 or so last I checked so yeah very possible.

Believe it or not, $20 is a fair amount of extra cost when you're looking at a piece of hardware that costs maybe $300 to produce. There are a lot of details yet to be released, so people are going to feel free to speculate on anything that wasn't explicitly stated. 

I think they confirmed 500gb now but anyway yes I know $20 is a lot when calculating the cost of a console, but doesn't everyone like to point out that Sony gets things cheaper than you or I?  They could upgrade to 1tb for $10 or something (I'm not expert so don't bring exact numbers if that's jibberish).  Anyway I don't think they need to go above 500gb since they can keep pace with MS now that they know they're less expensive.
