It is worth noting that Windows Media Center was a thing already before the 360 launched. So that DVR stuff wasn't them actually blowing smoke, just them showing support it. You stream it all from your PC.
I don't really have issues with the Elite controller price. $150 is actually pretty reasonable. As for not coming with the dongle, of course it doesn't. The dongle is very niche. Not everyone will use it with Windows, and an even smaller portion wants wireless.
I'm worried the same will happen here that happened to me. Story missions stop unlocking because you didn't do enough side missions. So even after doing the important side missions, you still have to go do some random ones to get things rolling. It's random and you just end up shooting in the dark.
I still can't get 46 to unlock with no real explanation. Hopefully they don't run into this same momentum killer.
