Rumor: 20GB Xbox Done, 60GB to be Announced Soon

Loot Ninja Faceplate on my Xbox 360

As we draw closer to E3, the price drop rumors are everywhere. The word on the street is that there will be a discontinuing of the 20GB Xbox 360 and it will be replaced by a 60GB model. A 20GB HDD is becoming useless with all the movements to DLC, Movies, Songs, etc.

“At E3 Microsoft will make an official announcement that we are dropping the 20GB pro console to $299… As we launch the 60GB SKU throughout July, the 20GB SKU will DISCONTINUE. You will see the new SKU on your 7/1 price list,”

I wonder if they will sell a 60GB standalone HDD. My original launch 20GB is basically full and I need to delete things to make room for demos. We have to assume the price will remain at $299.99 due to the price MS charges for storage.

Rumor: MS to Release a 60gb Xbox 360

Xbox 360 Hard Drive

The 20gb Xbox 360, i.e. the one almost all of us have might go the way of the 60gb PS3. Trustedreviews, SWEARS that he has a source inside of Microsoft that has confirmed this. The price of an additional 120 gb HDD is $180. So gamers have to either ditch their current models and buy an Elite or spend half the price of an Elite and buy a bigger drive and be stuck without HDMI support if they have an old model, such as me. Could this happen? Maybe. It sort of makes anyone who is holding out for a 360 hold out a little more perhaps.
