My 360 broke, so I bought a new one, I have a 250GB HDD.
I bought my new 360 refurbished, (Doesn't come with a new harddrive)
When at the store, I saw a new 360, slim.
For 4GB of mem and that's it, it isn't worth it, what are some reasons to buy this?
A regular 360's HDD is bigger then that for a slim, I know I can buy a better GB HDD for the slim, but I am not about to spend my money on that.
Plus, if I want all my saves, I need a transfer cable, wich is like 20 bucks, slim sells for 199.99, BTW.

I have a Slim and I just plug in thumb drives because I have billions of 16gig ones. And I only have Dead Space, Fallout and Fallout NV. But I assume you play a lot more games than I do.

I'm in love with my 360. Slim black, touch power button. Touch CD Tray opener.

I love it.

My advice to you? Idk. It's your choice. I love mine though.

edit: love love love love love

If anything happens to this one, I will go for it.
But I mean, I have 186 games on my HDD, so I am not light on gaming. :P

nah man, cause I used to have that, I switched out of it to get the 250gb hard drive built into it. more $, but yeah it was worth it... or try your saves on using thumb drives, cause thats what I used to do too, but I realized I use thumb drives for school & they're the only ones I have, which is why I got the 250gb one. slim .

They have those external drives for 360. Idk how much they are though. And they also have a 250Gig HDD for the slim. Those could be cheap on Amazon.

Buy the Slim, then go hunting for a HDD on ebay or something.

Idk how you feel about ebay/amazon/other deal sites, but not EVERYTHING is broken or a scam on there.

I kinda feel like I can mod the 360 so I can put my anti-slim HDD on it...

Actually if you youtube it you can mod the hard drive to fit the slim. Granted it is not as pretty as the slim hd, but it can e done.

I don't care about cosmetics. My old 360 has a prurple ring, and a cool skin that costed 80 doll hairs, will it fit that?

I love my slim. Gamestop moved everything for me when I bought it though. No cables needed. I still have my old HDD just in case, but yeah. It was worth it to me.

get a 4gb, and if you really need an hdd for installing games and other stuff, buy a 320gb hdd, put it in. i believe they are $100, which is the same price as the 250gb xbox but with more storage.

I would buy the slim 4gb, and use a USB device as backup memory if called upon.
