Hey Fanboy!, blu ray, hdmi cables and the wireless is still missing from the Elite

its still more expensive if it were made equivalent of the ps3

whats funny is they took away the free hdmi cable after the price drop lol


they actually announced the price drop like the very next day sony announced the slim

360>PS3 anyday... I still love the fact that I can download my games and play online. You cant do that with PS3

^ is that honestly the only reason you have to own a 360 over a PS3 o.0

question for you 360 guys, when I go to connect my roomies 360 to the marketplace and make an xbl account it tells me I have a month free of gold waiting so I stopped as we wanna save that for Sept. Do I have to activate the 1 month right then or can I opt not to use it yet and download demo's and stuff before activating it later? Or do I have to activate it before I can get to the marketplace? tia

you buy blu ray because you want to support the film makers for the movies that you love...?

^ exactly. I might D/L a movie if it's impossible to find or something, but if it's a good movie, it's definitely worth buying. You can't beat the quality of Blu Ray with a download.

yes but do I have to activate my free month of Gold right away? or can I use Silver til I want to use the 1 month of Gold?

On the topic of Blu Ray quality, how are the online blu-ray rips compared to the real blu ray discs we find at the store?

I'd say they tend to end up about halfway between DVD and BluRay

Around there, but I still rather watch it in full blown Blu-Ray :D
