Holy shite I hope you are serious.

I am.... the only home console I had to buy twice was the PS2, and that was because my friend stepped on it.

Also why do you get so worked up from everything I post, it's kind of strange.

Only poor money skills would be okay with buying a 300 dollar 360, and then buying the 200 dollar replacement only to find out that you really needed the 300 dollar replacement.

Yeah. like I said, I'm done with Microsoft consoles.

would you go buy a car before doing any online research? because it seems like if you would have put any effort or thought into this decision, you would not be in this situation. so, no. I have no pity for you. nor should anyone else. you were lazy and cheap.

i'm sure M$ is crying a river they will no longer have your business in the future.

I actually did, and found that I hardly used the HD so I wasn't concerned.


well after the fact there are games I'm interested in that I can't play without buying another product and doing some technical work to make sure it is in the right format and hoping that the xbox will accept it.

Good thing you can't see that I have a valid criticism.

Are you okay with the paywall to use basic console capabilities such as internet explorer or netflix?

Absolutely. Why? Because I knew before I bought my console, I would have to pay $5 for a monthly subscription for Xbox Live.

see how that works? research > understanding > purchase



I think I'll go out and purchase a time machine off of craigslist this week. I will be super disappointed if I am not able to travel thru time.

Considering you're this board's resident troll, I'll take that as a complement.

So it doesn't bother that MS put the console under a paywall? Wow.

I'll leave the Xbros alone, they need to take their xboxes on a date.

This is the greatest showing of peasantry I have ever seen on this board.

What's it say about us that we've contributed to this thread going 3 pages?

You didn't research. You "assumed" a bare bones, basic model console would do everything you ever wanted it to do. You were wrong.

If you buy a bare bones, basic PC do you assume it will do everything a high end $2000 PC will do?

People on Amazon have plugged in flash drives and external hard drives.

good luck on your next gaming console purchase, hopefully you will use a tad bit of forethought and common sense

Lesson learned: Don't buy MS consoles because you aren't sure if it will actually work. Plus, when your console fails and you buy a replacement expect fanboys to whine that you didn't spend quite enough c notes on your replacement.

Quite a thing, that.

It's never a smart idea for a company to split the user base
It's called marketing. The 4gb console is positioned to a different target market.

You should always do research or talk to someone at the store before buying electronics. Don't buy shite on the whim

Holy shite, once again the 360 isn't a PC. The hardware in a shitty cheap Dell and a $2000 custom rig are totally different. A 20gb 360 at launch plays games the exact same as a 360 sold today.
