I'm not sure how much I believe this rumor, but My Xbox 360 is reporting that the premium Xbox 360 pack is getting an upgrade in April.

Apparently, at the start of April, Premium packs will start shipping with 5x the HDD size of their predecessors. Cool for those who are about to buy a 360; very uncool for those who already picked theirs up.

They say the rumor comes from a Best Buy employee who works at a store in New Jersey. The employee adds that Best Buy is having some big sale in early April as well.

The fact that this tip is supposed to come true on April Fools Day doesn't lend it much credence. I'm leaning toward it being fake. I'd think any sort of free upgrade or price drop would be timed closer to the release of the PS3, not while the 360 is still selling out at the current price.

Rumor: 100GB HDD = Standard [My Xbox 360]
