A Critical Look at the Xbox 360 Elite
May 5 2007, 1:00pm CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr
Jonathan Law at AMN published a story titled "Why I Hate the Xbox 360 Elite". The story poses the question if Microsoft is just ripping off the gaming community with the Elite.
Quote from the report:
"So I asked earlier “Who is Microsoft trying to appeal to with the Xbox 360 Elite?” Did you figure it out? The answer is “idiots”. Microsoft is trying to appeal to idiots with the Xbox 360 Elite. Idiots that would spend $479 for a crippled HD system.Idiots that would spend $479 for a new color and hardware inclusions that shouldn’t have required a new, higher-priced package."
Read the full story on AMN. Via N4G.
The Xbox 360 Elite went on sale last week and seems still to be hard to find in stock.
