I actually went to the store yesterday and the stand alone Kinect also comes with a game (Dance something). No matter how you slice it if you want a Kinect, you are still paying $500. In which case if you go back to the 500 GB with the Kinect, then you need to spend $100 on an External HD on top of that.

Each console, though, maintains apps directly on the internal. This way, when I go to AF2015, and LibrarianBeth stays home (too much with the move this year for us both to go.), the console has Netflix, YouTube, HBOGo, etc, sitting there, ready to use.
Halo MCC is the best game package ever. And this is from a guy that started to write a anti-Bungie email in another thread. There is sooo much game there it's insane. 1 unachieveable out of 600 achievements? And you know they are going to fix it, that's a non issue.

Futiles "conservative" estimate if 25GB is WAY off, there's no way it's anywhere near that. I have 109 games installed on my 4TB drive and it's only at 30% used. I would be you that the majority (more than half) would still fit on a single DVD disk. futiles is usually very meticulous so I presume he's ignoring ID@Xbox games.
