I'd go for the £160 one with 60gb hard drive.

You get free month trials (3/4 months per gamertag) with new gamertags created on your Xbox anyway and with the £160 one, you got a month there, just keep it. Don't use it on signup. Use the free one.

For 40gb more, I'd say it's worth it..

Well yeah.

But I doubt I would full up 60GB

and buying a 20GB means that I can get a couple of more games.

Yeah, it's purely between the HD sizes.

If you think your going to store games on it then I'd go for the 60GB, I can only get two or three max games on mine at a time before I have to take one off. I think I've only got two on atm and 750 mb free actually.. it's like 4gb+ to store a game on a HD. Then you got your gamesaves, downloadable content on top of that etc.

I'd personally go for the 60gb but apart from the size and price, there isn't a real difference obviously.. so it's down to you.

I've got 120GB and I'm on like 80 now, so I'd go for the 60GB, you think you won't fill it up but as you make more game saves and such..

120 is wayy to much. Only way I'd get one is with the sexy elite.
but yeah i have a 20 gb harddrive and i have 6.9 gigs left.
If you fill up 80 gb than you must have lots of movies / tv shows stored on there.
even with how many games you have it cant add up to 80gb of space cause gamesaves dont go that high

Ok right.
60GB sounds like what I should get as once I get a console I normally get QUITE alot of games. But which one?
Just the Console? Or the one with Halo?

It's been discontinued now but there probably will be some places that still have the odd stock.

And Paul, for £20 it's worth it..

2 games burned isn't really a lot and then with demos and downloadable content like map packs and such..

Well I've just found a 20GB for 115 quid!

So I'd be paying 40 quid extra for a 60gb now.

Well if your so keen on getting 20gb, get it. Stop asking us for reccomendations when everything we say you just say something else to it.

Get what you want.

And fyi, the elite is second hand.
