If MS would just let us put in our OWN SATA 2.5" hard drives (100GB could be picked up for $50) so many people wouldn't be complaining about running out of room. At least let us put an external hard drive in and use it to store and run games off it (a required format of the external HD would be acceptable, even though it wouldn't be desirable). The excuse that there is a hacking concern doesn't really hold water when you consider those same hackers can hook up their PCs to the CURRENT 360 drive!

"Aint this fixed? I thought e and Major Nelson talked about how to fix the DRM problems lest week on the show. "

So....a problem that plagues a ton of people, you can only find out by going to a certain website and listening to a certain podcast? That's not a fix at all.

"Would love to pick up Stubbs, but DRM problems, won't buy an Elite until DRM is fixed and transferred items work offline, blah blah blah. "

Indeed I am one of those people who DID buy the 120GB HD, grudgingly.

It is a scandal that they are charging double the price of a 2.5" 250GB Western Digital SATA drive for a 120GB SATA drive.

The 360 120GB HD now is about 4 times the price of the same OEM drive now. Seeing as most people who want it already own the caddy for the 20GB drive, factoring that into the price is a poor excuse. Besides, if that WAY the case you should be able to trade it in and get the 120GB upgrade around the price of the drive itself - like I said about 1/4 of what Microsoft are charging in the UK.

It's cool that they are up but to tell you the truth if I really wanted to play these games I would go to my local gamestop and get a physical copy of it for way cheaper plus if I did that I could play it on my old xbox and my elite. Still the more content up on live the better.

I really want to see Rallysport Challenge 2 on Xbox Live too. That game was awesome, until my original xbox got stolen ...

Im considering getting Dirt if I can find it used at a sub-20$ price.

Also you guys should check out the GRID demo. It looks awesome,but I cant figure out why nobody talked about it before...

I wanted Stubbs when it first came out and couldn't find it anywhere. Not sure I'd want it now.

Backwards compat has always been with the spring update has it not? Don't count your chickens before they hatch

That aside one could easily guess that this spring there will be fewer at the very least seeing as how they're not likely to make any money off games sold years ago, and any of those games sold now a days are probably at least 80% used sales, which developers/microsoft will never see a penny of so DLC is of course the only availible option-No acheivements is lame though, if I wanted a rom emulator on my xbox i'd hack my console :X

I still keep hoping for a Stubbs game on the 360.

Was always interested in Stubbs but never got round to playing it. I appreciate Xbox Originals but isn't there anymore backwards compatibility updates coming?
