Xbox 360 Elite with 250GB HDD and Forza 3 spotted on Amazon Germany

[InsaneNutter]

Now that the Xbox 360 Elite has officially dropped in price and killed off the Pro, it was only a matter of time before there'd be a new rumor to pin on Microsoft's console. Amazon Germany, who previously listed the PlayStation 3 Slim a good 20 days before the official debut (it still has the same Amazon Stock Identification Number as it did when leaked), has gone ahead and posted a new Xbox 360 model with a 250GB HDD, two wireless controllers, and Forza Motorsport 3. The price is listed at 279 euros ($397), a good 30 euros over the current Elite price. No release date, but Forza 3 isn't due out until at least October 23rd so we'd say you got awhile to wait and see if this pans out.

Who needs 250 GB of space? I have the 120 GB and still have about 75 GB of space remaining.

You cannot put full games on your HDD. All you can do is install it to the HDD, but you still need the game disc.

250gig western digital laptop hard drives are only £36.45: Western Digital WD2500BEVT 250GB 2.5" Hard Drive SATAII 5400rpm 8MB Cache - OEM Scorpio Blue - Ebuyer

If HDDhacker is updated ill buy a drive and hack it for use in my 360, will be a nice upgrade from my 20gig one at a fraction of the cost of the official 120gig / 250gig drives...
