Earlier this morning Microsoft officially announced the Xbox 360 Elite system and from what we can tell, it's getting a mixed response. Some of you feel that it's an unnecessary slap in the face to early adopters while others are pumped to welcome the new black hardware into their homes. So, we felt it was our duty to gather more information, pictures, and videos of the 360 Elite and further educate everyone. Then, we can all make an informed opinion and decision. Thank us later. Click through the links below to experience complete Xbox 360 Elite learnification.

* Channel 10 has an interview and Q&A with the Elite's main man Albert Penello.
* Major Nelson's special mid-week Elite podcast.
* Take a look at up close and hands on photos.
* Official press photos of all the black happiness.
* Read about all the Elite details over at Xbox.com.
* 120GB HDD info (it includes a migration cable).


Yup. This is a Pre-Ordering Thread for those who want to get thiers hands on of the Xbox 360 Elite Version.

Just to let you know first, this model of the elite version is NTSC/UC only.
At the moment, Asia Version will be release soon maybe 2 - 3 more months after the US Release.

Price is still unconfirm therefore I just open up for those who wants to get thier hands if those people wants a U/S edition.

As for the warranty I'm still unconfirm that supplier will give me the 1 year warranty like the asia does. Will update you soon.

1)DjINn MY x 2 units.

Suggested price is $479.00, or about $80 more than the "premium" Xbox. For what Microsoft is charging for the add-on hard drive, this is a good deal. Users wanting to pick up the 120GB hard drive by itself will face a MSRP of $179.99.


QUOTE
Now, on to what the Xbox 360 Elite is not. This is not a console with a 65nm fabbed CPU in it. The innards are largely the same as the existing Xbox, so the 'great hardware refresh' is still out there, off in the distance. The same is true on the DVD drive front. Not only is it not an HD DVD drive (which we believe will never happen... the add-on is enough), but Microsoft also didn't take the wraps off a supposedly new "super quiet" drive.

Also, there's still no word on IPTV and how it relates to the Xbox 360 Elite. At this stage we still consider it a rumor that the 360's IPTV support will only come with new consoles.

Definitely yes and Microsoft will throw in a special transfer cable for you to migrate the content of your 20gb HDD to the new 120gb HDD. The old HDD will be wiped out if I'm not mistaken and you'll not be able to use it with your current Live account sweat.gif

Purchase the 120gb HDD and the rumoured MS component to HDMI adapter coming your way, voila!!! You have yourself a white Elite box! rclxms.gif

QUOTE
Friendly tipster Evan M wasn't too stoked to see an Xbox 360 Elite headed for store shelves after he'd just purchased a Premium 360, especially considering the fact that his TV has a whole HDMI port twiddling its thumbs, just waiting to get its game on. After informing Microsoft of his displeasure through what we're sure was a politely worded email, Evan claims to have received a slightly encouraging response from a Microsoft support person, promising an upcoming HDMI to component adapter for the 'box to make his situation perhaps a bit more bearable. Unfortunately, the support person also mentioned that "we do not have information as of the moment if the cable will be sold separately," which might mean such an adapter is only destined for sales with some sort of updated Premium SKU, at least for the immediate future. We'll keep our eyes peeled.

nope, there is no way that we can confirm that the elite is free from 3RODS.

as for the 120GB HDD and 512MB. you can actually purchase seperately.. for a heafty price tag sweat.gif

Once Singapore gets their Elites....... Djinn's shop should have 'em stocked too.

And I'll trust the unfortunate victims of the 3ROD (My heartfelt sympathies goes out to you all).... and that's to get a warranty for the 360....

Lol, thread digging...

Most probably they will charge you with tax..

But i found out, it's not worth it to buy it from The USA , as it'll be more costlier.

You need to get the power converter, play games only which regions support NTSC (ordering it could be a hassle) , but you can bypass that to enable your xbox to play games of all region by installing a modchip, but that'll void your warranty.. Best bet is to get one locally.. Or in sgpore... My 2cents..
