Won't be smelling right after those jambs.
This isn't true.
Every person I know that plays games holds on to everything they have unless they really didn't like it.
I HATE the cloud service on Xbox though. I lost all of my Forza 4 data because it somehow became corrupted while it was in the cloud. All of my cars and credits and career progress were lost.

To have more money to squeeze outta people down the line. There will be a Terabyte version when they do their Mid-Life Refresh(ie Xbox 360 Elite, Xbox 360 slim). Watch.

I'm not too concerned about the HD size.
I've gotten away with 20gb for the past 7 years

My Xbox library isn't really all that big .. maybe 10-15 games.
I just delete the save file when I'm done or when I need more space.
If I'm playing a game just for the single player/campaign aspect, I usually get it on PC.

The 500 gb doesn't sound bad tho.
Think about it, you load the game onto the HDD and when you beat it, just delete it off the HDD but keep your saved games. It's what I do now with the 360. I purchased the 250 but I would've been fine with the 60gb my cousin gave me. I have about thirty games that I've beaten.

The thing about hard drives is that they do fail (duh). And if I have an xbox one and I can't remove the HDD, then what? what if my warranty has ran out? Does that mean I have to buy another xbox one?

nah, it's gonna be removeable. it may not be covered, but it'll be removeable.

Define removable.
removable could mean, Microsoft removable or user removable.
I'm assuming that it's the former.

Microsoft is about that money so they'll probably still have proprietary removable HDD's that cost triple what it would to buy a normal one with the same capacity like on the 360.
I bought a 320GB for my PS3 brand new for like $40. You could use any hard drive of the same format and swap it in the PS3. Microsoft was slangin their proprietary ones for like $150. I hope they change that and that the new system comes with built in wi-fi. No adapters. The original Xbox didn't even have an HDMI port. I eventually just got the MW2 Elite 360.

what i meant was that there's gonna be some screws somewhere, you're gonna be able to take them out, remove the hard drive and replace it with something else. i guess if ms used a propietary sized cable or hard drive we might be out of luck but they probably won't. so yea in short, user removeable.

well i mean you gotta ppl in here saying they got the 20 gb version, and its not even full, some folks saying they have the 320gb and not even sniffing half of the storage. Plus if so many ppl (majority of folks) kept games trade in places would pretty much be non existent/out of business.

Cloud services to compliment hardware capabilities; provide richer, larger game worlds.
The cloud service supporting Microsoft's Xbox One will multiply the device’s local performance threefold, according to a report by group program manager of Xbox incubation and prototyping, Jeff Henshaw, in an interview with OXM.
Henshaw said that the partnership between console hardware and the supporting web service will allow for the ability to create more complex, permanent spaces for gamers to explore and play in.
"We're provisioning for developers for every physical Xbox One we build, we're provisioning the CPU and storage equivalent of three Xbox Ones on the cloud," he said. "We're doing that flat out so that any game developer can assume that there's roughly three times the resources immediately available to their game, so they can build bigger, persistent levels that are more inclusive for players. They can do that out of the gate."
It’s a sentiment Microsoft Australia marketing manager for console and software, Adam Pollington echoed in an interview with website Stevivor.
"It's also been stated that the Xbox One is 10 times more powerful than the Xbox 360, so we're effectively 40 times greater than the Xbox 360 in terms of processing capabilities [using the cloud]. If you look to the cloud as something that is no doubt going to evolve and grow over time, it really spells out that there's no limit to where the processing power of Xbox One can go,” he said.
The news follows comments last week from EA executive vice president and chief technical officer Rajat Teneja, who claimed that the architectures of upcoming hardware is a generation ahead of the highest-end PC on the market.
Epic Games vice president and co-founder, Mark Rein voiced his disagreement with the statement on Twitter.

Microsoft talking up cloud capabilities because they skimped on the memory and GPU.
I guess they didn't learn anything from PS3. Developers aren't going to jump through hoops to get performance out of the hardware.
I doubt Microsoft cares anyway. They just want to be the center of your living room to push you services anyway.

yall are sitting here talking about stats and number blah blah blah, but what about the games? who cares about specs vs specs? if the next 5-6 years of games is as lackluster as the past 5-6 then we have problems. every other title is a horrible FPS. things need to change now. my ive played 3-4 games on my 360 2 of which are last gen games (halo 2 when online was still up and mvc2)

If you dont think there were great games in the last 6 years then there is nothing anyone can do for you.
