Sarcasticgamer.com unravels the Microsoft Memory Card and HDD giveaway and goes in depth with the "why" behind this remarkable shift in strategy.
From the article: "Since the Xbox 360's launch, one of the major flaws with the system has been SKU's that dramatically differ from one another. On one hand, you've got Xbox Live, arguably the 360's strongest selling point, and on the other, you have a large percentage of 360 console owners that are unable to fully take advantage of it. It's kind of like buying a convertible when you live in Alaska. Taking the top down is a great feature on the car, but you'll never use it.
Well, looks like the brain trust in Redmond, Washington has come up with a solution that could resolve a lot of issues. Find out what that is and what it means for you, after the jump."

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
but i dont understand
why the Arcade couldnt come with a 20GB harddrive when they are giving them away for so cheap now!
20GB would work perfect for me because i wouldnt use the 360 as my main system. I would buy a couple exclusives and thats about it.
Considering the 360 has been lacking in exclusives i shouldnt run into space issues for a very long time....
~~touch
Happy i bought the system with allllllllllllll the real exclusives
With their new ad campaign for the 199 Arcade console, there's no FRIGGIN way they're gonna drop it.
But I thought I didn't need a hard drive to enjoy the xbox 360,whats going on microsoft
So if every console gets a HDD I wonder if MS is somehow going to free up the 360's 3rd core, and unleash the systems true potential. If 360 is going to be around for 2 more years then this would definitely be a good thing. I just hope this is true, and I hope that every console from here on out gets a fraking HDD.
Finally, the people at Redmond are wising up and fixing some nagging issues. Glad they learned their lesson.
