I don't think he meant that in a bad way. Probably just meant "Don't get too excited".



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

LOL did anyone look at that bundle, has anyone question how your going to use 4000 Xbox LIVE Points with only 4 gigs, you can't even play co-op online with the 4 gb model, lol, the controls are overpriced to begin with and gold membership costs MS nothing, and your going to have to shell out a ton to upgrade your harddrive if you want to use the points, seems like MS is just playing every idiot out there

Oh please.  For one thing you dont need to store everything you download forever.  You can download Xbox Live Arcade games and play them then delete them. If you want to play them again you can redownload for no charge. Secondly you can pickup a USB drive cheap and have plenty of space.  Finally when you can afford it you can pickup a Xbox Hard Drive.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

So in other words you have to have a huge hassle and waste the money you just supposedly saved, like I said MS is playing every idiot out there

Great deal but the 4GB is a piece of shit. Seriously 4GB is pathetic. You can't install any games to your hard drive with that and its only a couple demos/videos or a bit of DLC at the most.

They should have a deal like this with the 250GB.

Why would anyone really get the 4gb model....eh. I am an elitest!


For me I still had my 20 gig from my first xbox, so I brok it open and used that in my 4 gig. But I could many people getting it because what do you need a harddrive for? You can use flash drives no and they are pretty cheap.

You can't use flash drives to store 4000 points worth of purchases, this bundle is a joke

Do you own a 360? How would you know? I only have a 20 gig harddrive and have spent that many points. I dont even have to use a flash drive yet

of course you can and you will still have lots of space left.

usual price of a XBLA game is between 800 and 1200 MS points. XBL has a 2GB limit (and 99% don't even need much more than 1GB)

So you can download a possible maximum of 8GB. In reality you can even fit everything on the internal HDD, because as I said earlier games are much smaller than 2GB
