doesnt matter what type of gamer would get it. they will be bought and it will split the userbase. theres no doubt about that.

even a 5gb hd in the small one woulda effectivly given them the ability to go full out on games. People wanting to save more game and options on it would then upgrade... even for prices as horrible as that.

and thats what the gamers get for having this big price issue war between PS3 and X360, one of the main arguments everytime was a price issue, when it was VERY obvious MS could not deliver all they were claiming at that price. and because that price made everyone so happy, now they've found a way to keep that price. at the expense of better features they now wont fully get.

Unless Sony changes thier mind on ther HD issue before release, i dont know if im getting any of the new consoles. maybe a nintendo for the zelda games. i dunno. online gaming was one of my main factors for the new generation. i was hopping they'd get console online gaming closer to PC's level. but its not to be it seems. one thing is for sure tho, i wont be getting any of these at launch this time.



Good ol PC, always comes standard with HD.
