All three major consoles use DVDs today (the Gamecube's form factor is just different). That's 8.5 GB/disc which is enough for most games, including brand-new ones.

I'm more mad that the hard drive will supposedly be optional and that rumor has it Xbox games won't be compatible with the Xbox 360 (also a stupid name).

Yeah and if you look at the first one, the arrow to open the dvd slot faces upwards, however in the second one, the arrow goes to the side.

Nobody's making you buy the console, no need to slander it.

What I meant Zach was that the other next gen consoles are not using DVD drioves. PS3 wil lbe using Blu Ray which hold up to 35 gigs where as a DVD can fit like 9. And the Revolution wil lbe using a HD-DVD which can hold like...20? And with the graphics getting better it wil ltake up mroe space. The new formats comngi up are built to hold HD quality things. DVDs aren't made to do that as well. There is a huge difference.

And yes you're right....the modern consoles do you DVD drives.
