Well by now everyone knows about the new Xbox360 that was anounced called the Xbox360 Elite. It's basically the same as the existing ones but it comes with a 120GB harddrive, a HDMI port... and it's black! Of all the new features it's the colour that excites me most. Since there is no Video Marketplace in the UK (and even if there was I wouldn't use it due to the poor internet speeds here) there is really no point in getting a bigger HDD. I still have over 10GB free on my current drive and I have every single Xbox Live Arcade game on it. The HDMI port doesn't excite me either since I use the VGA cable to play on my PC monitor. So all that's left is the black colour... not really reason enough to buy a new console is it? At least the black controllers will be available seperately so I'll probably pick up some of those.
Then there's also the new text input device. I'm still not sure if this is real or not though.. it just looks fake. But Major Nelson posted the pics so there must be some truth behind it. Apparently its going to be an add-on for the controller so you'll just plug it into the socket where the headset usually goes. Looks like the headset will then plug into that again. We'll see when/if it's released I guess.
