Or just trade it in for a PS3 instead. Why let them do it to you again as they surely will .. and you get a better console to boot.

That's the advice I've been handing out, under the umbrella of: "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."

Again-not MS ripping people off. If EB Games- Gamestop (which by the way-they're the same company) or game crazy aren't honoring that's their business-not MS's. The EB here wouldn't even take my PS3 back after purchase because the power button didn't work-I didn't blame that on Sony-I blamed it on EB.

I use to manage a Software Etc (now Gamestop) and I do agree that the trasfer cable deal was a foolish step on MS's part, for them to think that previous owners wouldn't need it is ridiculous. Having said that-I can't remember one system launch, at my store, that something didn't go wrong. Either not enough systems, systems catching fire (which seems to be the popular one you hear at launches), or any other problem. I would hate to still be managing with this cable situation.

I just got one and hooked it up...I just think you finding ONE picture of that isn't going to detour me from buying one...like I've said every system has their launch problems-my PS3's on/off switch doesn't even work (launch system) so I have to use the controller (I'd put a video of me trying to use it but it's just a video of me tapping the stupid button over and over and over with nothing happening-I'd have to call in a sub to push the button cause my finger would get tired). The guy at EB told me I'd have to use my ESP (service plan) to get that fixxed-so I'm living with it until my service plan is almost up and then taking it in for a brand new one. I think they're both good systems-just people like to show off the bad apples.

The worst part is, handling MS's DRM. If folks migrate to the Elite, anything they actually purchased becomes only usable if they're online.

That said I have yet to see how Sony's DRM holds up so can't constrast and complain there .

That I can't fathom at all.

It was one of the biggest complaints, and they totally ignored consumers.

So-may be "not worth the money" or whatever-but they got your $475.
