What's the Difference Between the 4 GB Xbox 360 and the 250 GB 360?
 

I know there's the obvious extra hard drive space, but if all I want to do is play games and occasionally stream Netflix do I really need the extra 250? What would be the point? Does it operate faster? Any help on this would result in me loving you a long time.

Bigger is better if you plan to get more than a handful of DLC or XBLA games, or install the games to the drive. Otherwise they're the same.

Yea 4 GB gets filled up like its nothing....

Yeah, Xbox Live/Netflix are going to take a decent portion of that alone...

Get the 250. If you play games, you're gonna wanna install some of them to cut down on load times and possibly extend the life of your 360. Plus if you play shit like Rock Band or just like to d/l a bunch of arcade games, you will need tons of space. Rock Band DLC alone is taking up 20gb on my 360.

omg u dont know wtf noob

Don't fall for that 4gig sham, man. That's just their ploy to sell hardrives. Whether you want it just for Netflix or Live, eventually you're going to get an itch to download a demo or a DLC for a game. 4gig just isn't feasible.

You can buy a 4gb console and a 250gb WD laptop Hard Drive to hack yourself for less than a 250gb console.

You got it guy. That's the only difference...you can also use a usb drive. Get say a 32GB and you will be fine

USB is 16gb max.
