Xbox 360 Gets 250 GB HDD Upgrade

By - Source: Tom's Hardware US

Microsoft has announced a 250GB HDD add-on for the the Xbox 360. Headed to Japan in March, the price for the storage add-on is set at ¥15,540, or around $170.

However, while the Japanese market will be able to pick up one of these from March 11, Microsoft has yet to name a release date for the U.S or Europe. In fact, the company hasn't even confirmed if the American or European markets will see the device at all.

Currently the largest capacity add-on available is 120GB. If this were available in the States, would you purchase one at the $170 price? Let us know in the comments below!

    For $170? No...they really need to adjust the pricing on their HDD peripherals.

    OMG haven't they learned yet? And why would I want this device when I could get an external 1TB for half the price?

    Sadly, people will buy it, and MS will not get the message.

    cadderWhy does a video game need a hard drive? Maybe a little flash memory so it can remember where you are in a game or what your high scores are, but a big hard drive?


    XBLA, Game installs, HD movies..........


    Why not a 360GB drive?

    Just sayin............
