Well which theme do you like better
Elite:

Halo version:

The elite version arrives in Game in 13 Days.
The halo version arrives sometime when the Halo 3 arrives. [Around 50 days]

Personally i like the Elite better. The halo in my opinion chose the wrong colours. Should have stuck to keeping the theme blue.

Hey,

This is from OXM Issue 24 (September 2007) :

But if you DON'T NEED A HDMI CONNECTION OR A MASSIVE HARD DRIVE, you might want to invest in the special-edition Halo 3 Console

Emphasis added of course, So the special edition console may not have the HDMI or hard drive.

The other thing I noticed is in BLUE, I thought it was a 120GB HDD that came with the elite?

ON-TOPIC : I do like the Halo 3 Xbox (I love the orange!) but I dont like the green. If it was Black & Orange I would love it!

OFF-TOPIC :Yeah I thought that as well, Look at my thread about the HDD :)

Hey,

Oh dear lord! How did you guess :P

But the Elite is a good upgrade, and Microsoft say that it is not aimed at current Xbox owners. It is more for people who do not currently have a X360.

If I based it on how they looked, I would get the halo one. Myself, im tired of the solid-color black systems out there. The green looks good on it I think. But I wouldn't base spending acouple hundred dollars on a system based on the looks of the system. I would buy it based on the specs. Looks are nothing if the other one preforms better.

I suppose but the xbox elite are supposed to be the first xbox consoles with; 120gb memory & HD dvd.
So they are better than the original xbox consoles. Unless microsoft decides to put the 120gb memory in there which i doubt they will.

I bought my elite last saturday. Im realy pleased with it. i got my one because my xbox 360 kept breaking (ive been through 3 now) so i got the elite because they should have fixed the problems with it. So far there have been no problems also microsft sped up the disk speed (same as ps3 now maybe more) so gameplay is more smooth. Really you should get the elite if you are a HD gamer because of the HD-MI cable (picture is more crisp.) Oh yea and the 120 g hardrive is goning to be usefull in the futer when you can download movies/Tv shows off of the xbox live market place.
