Well, it looks like Microsoft is looking to take more of our money with this new version of the 360. It looks pretty kick ass in black, it has a 120-gig hard drive, HDMI support, and it runs cooler/quieter with a retail of $479.

What happend to the good old days of consoles where you'd buy a system and it'd last you a few years. What the hell are Microsoft gonna do next, upgrade the processor and graphics engine ??

It's kinda stupid in a way though how they're pushing the price up towards the price of a PS3. When you compare the 360 Elite with the PS3 and the $20 price difference, the PS3 is definately the better deal. If they were smart, they would've put the HD DVD drive on it.
The Elite is going to replace the premium version once the Elite stocks run out. The price difference really isn't that bad. A 360 premium will cost you $399, so for $80 more you get HDMI and an extra 100gigs of hdd space.

60gig PS3 is still $599

And lets not forget these are gaming systems, with no AA the PS3 is a joke.
