BUT, even at $299 this console should offer Wireless connectivity (not an $89+ add-on) and it should be bumped up from 120GB (especially now that they are touting advancements in pre-installing games to speed up load times). Both are not deal-breakers, but for me it would have made it an instant purchase. There are still hardcore gamers out there like myself that have taken a more wait-and see approach this time around.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[teasphere]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2009 1:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Xbox 360 Elite replacing Pro at $299 price point August 30th?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</guid><description><![CDATA[You've held off for 3 years?<br><br>Why don't you just wait until this generation is over then.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vol]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2009 4:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Xbox 360 Elite replacing Pro at $299 price point August 30th?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yes, I have. I don't have the time to play games like I used to when I was younger, and for the first year to year and a half there were only about two games that interested me.

Hence the desire for wifi built in. I happily game on my PC and when the price/performance is there I'll buy one and all the games will be cheaper too. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[teasphere]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2009 4:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Xbox 360 Elite replacing Pro at $299 price point August 30th?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/xbox-360-elite-replacing-pro-at-299-price-point-august-30th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nice!
