It has been a real problem trying to find a store that will have more than 4 systems to sell for tomorrow’s big launch of the Xbox 360 Elite system. So you may ask what is so great about this system that makes it that much more expensive, and in demand already?

The unit’s bolstered specs–such as a 120GB hard disk drive and an HDMI 1.2 connector, perfect for today’s high-def TVs–mean more room to store digital content, and a better way to view high-definition content.

The Xbox 360 Elite differs from the current Xbox 360 in ways beyond cosmetic finish. Black, however, really can be slimming–even in the context of an inanimate game console. The matte-black Xbox 360 Elite manages to look more svelte than its off-white predecessor.
