1) Switch drives.
2) Download/Recover profile from Xbox Live.
3) Everything is the exact same as it was on your old HDD, yes you would be able to play as Nicole.

There is a transfer cable that is supposed to come with the 360Elite that transfers everything from your 20 gig to your 120 gig. Or, you could get the Datel Transfer Kit, save your 360 HDD to your computer's HDD, then when you get the 120 save back to it. I'll try to dig up proof of the cable, i'll edit when I do.

Interesting, I kind of want the HDMI, but i jsut got a 360 for christmas. I dont think it matters that much.

Don't most tv's have the funny coloured cables AND HDMI anyway?
I also don't see any benefits other than it stops clutter of many cables...

For some reason it is held on such a high pedestal...Why is HDMI so good? Seriously I'm asking...

Increased picture quality, and HD benefits.

Nothing for you to worry about SDTV owner

The black controllers look butt ugly.

The HDMI cable also carries a digital audio signal.

You can only move data from the 20GB Hard Disk to the 120 GB Hard Disk. Transferring data in the other direction, or any other combination, is not possible.
Any data stored on the 120 GB hard disk will be automatically deleted.
Any data stored on the 20 GB hard disk will be automatically deleted after it is moved over.
You cannot put the data from two or more 20 GB hard disks onto one 120 GB hard disk. If you attempt to move multiple drives, only the last one you move will be stored.
Once you move the data over, it cannot be placed back on the original hard disk.

Uncompressed digital signal. As well as immune to interference.

No, gamesaves are stored locally on the system itself. Only the record of your achievements and your past purchases/downloads are stored on the Xbox Live servers. Do you know how much space it would to take to store everyone's gamesaves and stuff? Not to mention how long it would take you to upload them?

I love how Microsoft screwed over the earlier adopters by not telling the truth about the Xbox 360 not being able to support a digital output and not even incorporating support in the first place.

I hardly consider myself "screwed over" - I don't have a need nor want for the features, so why would I be screwed by not buying a more expensive package? While it may not be a majority, there are undoubtedly many, many more people who share this feeling.

I wouldn't have a problem with Microsoft adding digital output if they had just been honest from the very beginning that the Xbox 360 could not do DVI/HDMI. It's a feature I really wanted.

I actually like the black look...

ScottyGEE · Post by **ScottyGEE** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 11:28 pm

The blaq case looks awesome but the black/grey controllers look bad...I would have thought make it black/white or something but the grey just doesnt work...

Even though it would make no sense at all, I woulda made the grey, red and changed the LED's to red...But yeah lots of cinfusion would ensue and that (coupled with 1000000 other reasons) is why I don't work for Microsoft

It stores all your achievements and game saves/data.

I can confirm that it doesn't store your save data...
