Anyone who's bought the version of the Xbox360 with the 20GB hard drive knows the underwhelming collection of free stuff pre-loaded on the hard drive. The Xbox 360 Elite will have much more free content pre-loaded on it. For the extra money it would cost to get an Xbox360 Elite, you get three game demos, free episodes of popular television shows, and some movie previews. The three game demos are Burnout Revenge, Kameo, and Tomb Raider: Legend. There will be eight videos on the Xbox 360, including one full length episode of Justice League. All this free content sums up to one thing: Microsoft is trying to show off how their machine is more than just a gaming platform.

Whats gonna be the price difference between the Xbox 360 and the elite?

P.S. Nice "edited" avatar Zek ;)
 
I believe it is $400 for premium and $480 for elite. It's worth it just for the extra HD space IMO.
 
ooo free demos and movie previews...give me a break
 
Trying to compete with the PS3 in other words.

Hehe, so are the demos and trailers that you have to pay for ?) Seems more like a marketing plot with the FREE thingy. Now this sort of thing when all we had were modems would have been great and true, now it seems more like :ohwell:
 
FREE DEM0 = tautology

Wow! Big deal!

Premium dropped to 299€, here at least. The SuperSizePack (Premium + 1 extra wireless controller + quick charge kit + multimedia remote + ...) is 349€ here.
