Hard Disk… Drive to make money

Ever feel like you just don’t have enough space on your hard drive for those ever larger game installations, Movies, Music and Demo downloads? Well a 250gb HHD is reportedly coming to… Japan(according to the seattlePI blogs), and here I thought Hard drive space was universally lacking on the 360. Turns out its only Japan that really need it.

Of course Micro$oft wouldn’t be Micro$oft without charging you through the nose for the privilege of using their ‘bespoke’ run of the mill 250gb laptop hard drive. A straight conversion from yen is $172, roughly translates to £110, for hardware that usually costs £50 for 320gb.

The monopolist muggery doesn’t stop there with Micro$oft as they plunge into your pockets again for a piece of hardware that is; 1. overly expensive and 2. should’ve came with the console in the first place. The wireless N adapter for the 360 is reported to actually be able to hold a decent connection this time and cost another $100 or £60 according to geek.com, for something that was integrated into its competitors consoles from day one.

I apologize for the spelling errors, My keyboard seems to have switched to an American layout as opposed to the UK layout… when writing… the word… Micro$oft…sniff.

  2. Its funny that you never see articles being written on how expensive the 360 is, its always the PS3 that gets those stories
