Quote:There will be a HDD available for the PS3, but I don't know if it'll come with the system or not. The 360 will have a HDD add-on bundled with all systems, I believe.
I'd bet more on the rumors that both will have multiple versions... a cheaper X-Box 360 without a HDD and a more expensive one with one, perhaps? Same maybe for PS3... I'm just thinking that why make it removable if it's included in the box? I'd think that the main reason to make it removable is to make it able to be sold seperately... 'you can take it to a friends' house' is something else they can say, but it's not the main reason they would do that.
That said, yes, it definitely is a problem that PS3 and X360 have harddrives and Cube does not. SD cards are just too expensive, in the large sizes, to be an effective replacement for one (and besides, PS3 supports those as well...).
Quote:One (minor) gripe though...it appears the controller ports on the top of the console would be a little bit of an odd angle for the three people still using wired controllers (ABF, PH, and...um...some guy in Kentucky). A small complaint.
Put the system flat, then it's fine.
Quote:One question. Perhaps it's already been answered. On the bottom front of the console there appears to be a small door of some sort. Oh, maybe that's a tray for GameCube disks...or controller ports for optional wire controllers for those three people (and even Kentucky Guy will see the light by spring).
Good question... I don't know.
