The black 360 is coming


Recommended Posts

I just hope they don't charge an inflated price for it like Apple does on the black Macbooks cause I'm really tempted to get one.

Initially it'll be roughly $80 USD more than the Premium ($480) and then it will eventually take place of the Premium and be $400. At that point, the Core will be phased out and the current Premium will drop to $300, and this newer edition will be $400. IINM.

I swear! Some of you act like tards! OMFG MS is putting out a different 360. That's not fair I just got mine 3 motnhs ago. Blah Blah! What do you want? You want it to hop and sing yankey doodle dandy and tell you the meaning of life? be happy that Ms is actually taking the time to improve the 360. I for one am totally stoked about this and the upcoming releases.

The one thing that's a problem is the HDMI, if older systems get a HDMI cable also, then there is no problem. The bigger HDD can be added later also, though price is the problem with that. So right now, if you have a 360, and want HDMI really bad, this would be the only real need to get a new one, unless MS does offer older 360s an HDMI option.

Just have to wait and see.

How will data be transferred to the new HDD, I know things can be redownloaded and gametags recovered etc. but there must be a simple way to do it surely when the new HDD is released, i don't own a HDD so I don't really care, just wondering.

There is a rumor that there will be a data cable provided with the new hard drive that will allow users to easily transfer their files from the old HDD to the new one.

Rumors are just that, Rumors. I wont believe anything until its officially announced by MS themselves or some videos are posted on a site like gametrailers.com from an event confirming everything is true, sorry guys. I mean dont get me wrong i would love to see the Elite actually come, personally for the extra 100gb of space, but i wont believe it till its confirmed by MS.

Except Sony owns Blu-Ray. They wouldn't allow that.

Sony can't stop MS adopting Blu-Ray, did they [sony] invent Blu-Ray? yes, but does that mean they [sony] get to decide who can support it? no. Also Microsoft haven't dismissed supporting Blu-Ray either, Xbox 360 May Support Blu-Ray "One Day"

even if sony could stop MS releasing a blu-ray add on for the 360, I don't think sony would stop MS. Simply because more blu-ray players = more revenue for sony.

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
