could hurt them tho cuz they built up how a hard drive is such a great thing. and then users will see it in the PS3 and not Xbox2. Most likely they have found a differnt form of memory at a very good price. |
Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
NOOOOOOOOOOOoooo...... it cant be true. that ****en sux. ohh well looks like ps3 will be God for next gen consoles. unless nintendo pulls something big off and while that possiable Im not holding my breath. ohh well I still have my computer.

Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
Yuck, bad idea... but hopfully they follow through with another big memory format unlike Nintendo's SD card tease. I for one would much rather have a big card than some type of online online memory space.

Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
Why can't MS use the HD's that laptop's use. Those are tiny as hell and can fit a good amount on it.
|
Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
T think the reason they don't want a HD is piracy issues... I still say make a HD with just too little space to save the average full game. Oh, and have it be 100% unreplaceable or upgradeable ;)

Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
I remember making a post about piracy and how MS shouldn't have put a HDD in it's console and concentrated more on piracy policies.
Now they listen :p |

they can put other ways on there that would be a bit more effective. problem is nothing is ever and will ever be totally piracy free And Junbo, i dont think the actual size of the hard drive (size, not how much it holds) is the issue. thoes laptop hard drives cost more then normal hard drives. so that wouldnt really be good for em. |
Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
Well, Null, I was thinking big enough for a game update, but not big enough to hold a full game (like Xbox does)... thinking somewhere in the range of 500MB to 2Gigs
|
Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
A 20 gig laptop HD would be fine for next gen. If mods were used more for consoles, MS could make it so you can upgrade to say a 40 gig, etc...

why would a laptop HD make any difference tho? thats just a more expensive HD then a normal one, which would boost up the xbox 2 price, and have no advantage at all. And game, that would prolly hold console updates of today. but trust me, once consoles get rolling into the online like they eventually will... wont be nearly enough. i've had game updates take up well over 500 mb in size |
Re: Xbox 2: No Hard Drive
Im talking about using laptop HD's because they are alot smaller then standard PC HD's. Even though they cost a little more, thats why MS should've included like a 20 gig or something with the option to upgrade. Since after seeing that the original XB contains a standard PC hd that takes up half the size of the XB and how people hate the size, using a laptop HD would be a more sensible solution. Even though price is a big thing, MS doesn't give a damn about price it seems so they could've chosen to include say a 10 gig or 20 gig hd with option to upgrade.

no. its costing them quite a bit more to do it like that. and a normal hard drive takes like a small percent of it. a quarter of it maybe, looking down upon it. the PS2 has a full size HD slot in it. and the GC could fit a hard drive in it. or maybe more like the GB addon for it would be about that size. but no. its not a size issue. theres no need to make it that tiny right now and jack up the price. |

The only way I see MS implementing some type of big memory is if it can prevent piracy... or at least make it harder than it is now. |
