I have the 4gb 360, the HDD is almost full from the update that Battlefield 3 put out 2 weeks ago. I know somewhere they have pre-formatted USB drives for the 360. I'm assuming they cost 5 times more than their non-microsoft branded counterpart, I also don't know if you can plug in a standard flash drive or external HD.

My Vote is for the 360 :)

Sell it, buy PS3 since it's a 3D Bluray player and it can pull movies off your laptop over the network and play them on your TV (uses your laptop as a media server).

The xbox does this as well.

It doesn't play Blurays though. They'll both do Netflix streaming too.

Who cares? The days of physical media is dead. I own both systems and i've never bought a single bluray. HD Downloads and streams for the YEY

I put in a new hard drive. I actually had a laptop hard drive from an old laptop i had, it was actually really easy to do. Just flash the firmware of the hard drive and pop it in the 4gb 360. Just google "Upgrade hard drive on xbox 360." I now have a 250 gb hard drive on my 4gb free xbox.

I buy blu rays. I got the Band of brothers/Pacific box set on blu ray. HD Downloads and streams aren't true 1080p.
