Really sir, tell me, how am I "stupid." Last time I checked MS doesn't do firmware updates often. In fact the only firmware changes they have ever done have been in major OS updates. The 360 OS wouldn't be the first OS to have a "memory" (not RAM memory, but data memory) limit, so I don't see why it isn't impractical for this to not have a 250 HDD.
Old school OS's had storage capacity and ram limits simply because it didn't know how to allocate or work with the data....

You CAN'T have a legit 360 with over 120gigs. But you can hard & soft (you have to do both) mod it so you CAN use larger than a 120gig HDD. The signature is STRICTLY for being able to use the HDD on a valid 360, otherwise, if that signature isn't there, you can't connect to XBL otherwise you'll be bricked not only for not having an illegitimate HDD, but for having the OS modded as well.

EDIT: Just so you know, the 360 HDD is a standard 2.5 SATA HDD... So yes, you can hard mod...

Yes that was a recent update, but I'm usually very active in the console modding community so I'm pretty sure someone would have announced that find.

EDIT: The lack of picture doesn't help this "news" either.

The 360 can't detect more than 120 gigs. Check out any modder. They can mod a 3rd party HDD into the 360, but if its larger than 120 gigs, the extra space won't be recognized.

Everyone is too busy being fanboys (I can bet you 50% of these guys that post comments on here actually don't like racing games/cars) but the real question is: Where is this "feature blowout?" All of this info has been known. I can't stand it when people post a comment on an article just restating what has been said 100 times and they just say "this is going to be awesome." Ok, you've probably said that 100 times before in every other article, just stop. Why let these thin...

It's a real wonder looking at how they do these things. Just by looking at them you can tell that they were exhausted even at that point. Several hundred cars later, they must be near breaking point. Just look at Kasunori's eyes. They are bloodshot red half the time and he's constantly blinking (a sign of being tired).

Can't wait for this release.

I was 7 at the time. At first I thought it was the most boring thing I have ever played, but I realized (wow, these cars are so real) because they looked, and sounded so good compared to other games that had "humms" for the engine noises. I still love GT today and I'm looking forward to the next release.

Anyway, here are my thoughts:

1000 cars? Awesome. I will probably only use 500 AT MOST (throughout the whole life cycle of the game) but different people prefer different cars, so the option of choosing the 500 most favorite cars will differ from person to person. I unlocked over 300 cars on GT4, and I don't even own the game, so that tells you something.

80 tracks so far is cool, I hope they announce more. There are enough WRC, Nascar, and the standard race course t...

That game would be perfect if you didn't have to go through each level twice. 1 with each character. It makes it feel a lot more slow. I know you can go ahead and progress with whichever character you want, but you would know a lot more of the story with 1 person than the other. I would have preferred a "choose your character" type of thing in the BEGINNING of the game. Go through the game, beat it then use the other character.

Anyway, overall really cool game. I'm only...

There is NOTHING homophobic or nothing anti same-sex that is in the game. Only dumbasses like to start problems that were never there.

"Crysis on high-end NVIDIA SLI solution only looks at most marginally better than top Xbox 360 games"

Is he f*cking blind? I'm sorry, but just because someone makes a better engine than your company, doesn't mean you have to get butthurt about it.

Larrabee tech (according to this presentation) is very similar to the Cell tech. Vector based, multi cored/parallel technology. The main difference is the L2 cache on the Cell is a lot smaller.

How about you extend the life of the console by making them so they don't melt and die.

They'll moderate you for f*cking nothing. I called someone NOT retarded (defending someone) and I got moderated for saying the "r word". Wtf?

NOT ONLY THAT!

I got suspended for saying:

"Nice use of punctuation, capitalization and just English in general."

Considering I'm Muslim, I take a lot of offense to your comments. I usually don't get offended either.

I shall kill you and then fly my 747 into your grave.

Thinks he knows everything about RPGs. That's why none of his games are good. He over promises and under delivers. EVERY TIME.

They need to be able to pour water and such. That would be awesome. It would make for some awesome Rube Goldberg(spelling) devices.
