Sauce: http://www.neowin.net/news/gamers/09/03/07...-xbox-360-eliteThank god I got the Elite when I did anyway...... Back then, it was excellent because of the huge HDD AND HDMI ports....... but now, even the premium models has HDMI and HDDs can be upgraded........ soooooooooooooooooooo........ What say you all? Yay or nay?

Yay.I don't think it came to much use anyway. They're selling 120GB HDDs now. I mean it was great when it first came out,but now Premium = Elite with half the HDD size. But it's not like you need the HDD space anyway.We don't get marketplace movies and such >_>

My original Elite was a Zephyr. But thanks to a DVD Drive defect, I sent it back to Singapore and got a Falcon instead.....

I used to stuff for LYN Editorial and troll at LYN Forums

Well...it's supposed to be Limited Edition in the first place. My personal say is it doesn't made much difference. The market gonna lost a black 360 option, that's all.

I thought the availability of the harddisk is very scarce? We owned elites because we can afford one. I smell a fanboy.  And hopefully with this, we can see less retailers racking up elites or limited edition for the arcades or less expensive bundles of 360s. Either way, we as gamers will reap the benefits.

Even if it does fail, it was never a special priviledge to own an elite.
And it's just a console. So grow up.

Apa la nak jeles jeles, i have an elite because it has a bigger harddisk, black and I wanna keep things legal, and oh ding ding, I can afford it too. Its easier since its like that straight out of the box, just the way I want it, and its official, great for that sudden 3rod attacks.
Kalau mau mod xbox go ahead, its good to make yourself feel special, especially in the aspiring years of just leaving teendom and striving to get an identity by flaunting membership seniority while trying to act cool. I know, I've been there, about a decade ago.
Oh on the topic of the elite being discontinued, that's just microsoft doing business. I'm sure there'll have another elite like elitekaukau or elitestest in the future when the economy improves.

agreed with bem & shuvits.. nak jeles buat apa? macam budak pompuan emo belasan tahun baru nak up.. doesn't have their own sense of belonging and identity and therefore disagrees with others that are comfortable with what they have.. pfft..
takder buat macam takder.. don't have to go all whiney "uhhh, u own an elite and sheet.. yours sucks.. mine is better because i have a normal one with a new chipset"..
inferiority complex gets you no where except cutting your own wrist when others are happy and you're not...
