Doesn't anybody want an Xbox 360 Core?
Our own poll here shows that even people who don't want an Xbox 360 outnumber those who want a Core. It's understandable; hardcore Halo fans want to play their old Halo games on the Xbox, and that requires a hard drive.
In all seriousness, does anybody want a Core? Microsoft isn't even offering it in the Japanese market, where the old Xbox did very poorly, and so backwards compatibility is a non-issue. Xbox360News is reporting that the US may have upwards of a million Xbox 360 units for the launch date, but that a mere 20% of those are Cores.
Are even those going to be sold, except to people pissed off that they can't find a full-fledged Xbox 360, but are willing to add the HD and wireless controller later just for the privilege of getting their hands on the console immediately? If the percentage of Cores shipped was actually higher, I'd suspect a massive bait and switch maneuver was underway.

360 core system
i got a core system and let me tell you. they suck. i didnt know about not being aqble to play xbox games. if you ask me. i think its one of the biggest cons microsft have ever pulled.
i cant find a hard drive anywhere. they are all out of stock. seriosly no one has them. and the little memory stick has a pathetic amount of memory. 64 mb. come on microsoft what were you thinking? that can bearly fit all my quake 4 saves. let alone any pictures or music or videos.
i only have 360 games at the and ive completed them both. Perfect Dark an Quake 4, and lets just say the online mode, well its no halo.im a halo fan and i want my halo.
so if this gets posted, and people can read this, do not get a hard driveless core system. its a waste of your £170.
just wait till they restock the premium.
the xbox 360 core system is a complete dissapointment. im sorry for my harshness and the length of this post but THE WORLD MUST KNOW!!!
