Well it seems the user Proelite, after watching Rush Hour 3 went to pay the local game store a visit to see if they had the premiums with HDMI. And some interesting things was said. According to the Gamestop Employee he states that "They're making the elites into premiums, and dropping the core" then says "and later they're releasing xbox ultimate." It seems The so called New xbox 360 Ultimate features HDMI, and a HD-DVD drive to compete with Blu-ray. The new Xbox will just make it More HD. And its suppose to make its appearance in stores sometime in 2008.

Well this info isn't 100% clear, but whats your take on this so called move. Will this help MS or just screwing its consumers.

After watching Rush Hour 3, which was like an overstretched lolcat, I decided to pay my local gamestop a visit to see if they had the new premiums with HDMI. Here is the transcript of the conversation below.

Me: Hey, do you have the Premiums with the hdmi?
GT: Those are called the elites. They are right there.
ME: No, I mean the premiums, *points*, with hdmi.
GT: They're not making them yet till like later.
ME: They're making them now, I've seen pictures of them online.
GT: No, they're not. You got it wrong.
ME: Nowai.
GT: Let me explain, they're making the elites into premiums, and dropping the core.
ME: WHAA..
GT: Microsoft told me they're making the elites into premiums, and later they're releasing xbox ultimate.
