That sucks. That would have been a steal.

Glad you got a new system Mr. Plow....I'll have to play some COD4 with ya when I get back. Hopefully we can party up beforehand so all of us from CP don't get split up.

the only difference the the larger proprietary HD though.

and HDMI

and the sweet black

The pro already has HDMI.

Far as color goes, I have the wood faceplate. It almost looks invisible on my entertainment center.

I think the black looks really good. I know I could buy a skin for it if I wanted.
I don't have a PRO system though.
I have a premium. Rumor has it that the same deal today was supposed to be for tomorrow.. We'll see.

I have HDMI and I have the arcade one.

Yes, yes but still a newer SKU.

so anybody thinking about picking up Mercenaries 2 on Aug 31? I'm really looking forward to this game. I loved the first one on the original xbox, its gonna be sweet! Man, too many damn games and not enough time.

Call of Duty 4 - still play a lot
GTA 4 - not even half way through
NCAA 09 - still playing online dynasty
Soul Caliber 4 - probably a mistake buying this one, it's ok but not that great and don't have enough time to learn it since it has kind of a high learning curve

that's what I'm trying to play right now

games I'm definately going to get

Mercenaries 2
Fallout 3
Star Wars
Gears of War 2
Call of Duty 5


and there are plenty of other "maybe's"

damn, no way am I gonna get to have enough time to play all of these

I don't know what that means

It is a deal to potentially make a profit on if you turn it straight to Ebay when you get it.

It's a newer model

Absolutely. I was considering this.



It's also a hell of a deal for any non-360 owners that are on the fence.

It's like a beautiful, artsy Mario with more puzzles.

All of the newer systems have the HDMI. Talking with the guy at Gamestop, I asked what the difference was between the 60gb & the 120gb - beside the HDMI.

Him: "All the systems have the HDMI slot now."
Me: "Oh...cool. So what's the difference between them?"
Him: "Elite has a 120gb hard drive."
Me: "Ya, I know that. Anything else?"
Him: "Elite is black."
Me: "Ya, I can SEE that. Anything else?"
Him: "Uhhhh....no. You get an HDMI cable."
Me: "So unless I really want a 120gb HD, there is no difference between the systems?"
Him: "Elite is black."
Me: "Ok. Give me the 60gb."

Guy looked at me like I was an idiot for asking what the difference between the systems were.....and then he felt the need to tell me TWICE that one of the differences was that the elite was black.
