360 HD missing GB?

Sandok · Dec 9, 2005, 05:59 AM

There was some grumbling around the gaming community when those lucky dogs that own the Xbox 360 premium package checked out the storage space on their optional 20GB hard drive. The bad news read something like this: "13 GB free." Naturally, a lot of 360 owners are wondering just what exactly the other 7 GB are being used for. We got the low down right here.

Isn't it funny how people will pick at the smallest of things?

If it said, Size: 20GB, 13GB free people wouldn't be pissed. Common sense dictates that that all the crud being loaded has to come from somewhere, and has to be saved somewhere too.

Know what? I don't like the sound that plays when you flip through the pages on the dash board. Can get very annoying. I also wish they had put rubber feet on all 6 sides. That way I could stand the system any way a I wanted to. Oh, and the Limited Edition free remote in the Premium Pack should have been bigger. Everyone knows bigger is better. Lastly, the headset should be in stereo, not mono. I want to hear people talking back to me in both ears.

Stupid Twits.

Well at the price that Xbox 360 is, I can understand why they would.

What I am surprised at is that a console gamer even knows what a hard drive is

Besides, console games are b-o-r-i-n-g. Give me a computer game and its complexities and whatever kind of control configuration i want. Console games=checkers. Computer games=chess.

ps, sorry for the slight rant but I am still pissed at what SOE did to Star Wars Galaxies and the consolefication of the game.
