Most of the accesories in the Xbox 360 full set are things I really don't care for and am not going to spend an additional 100$ on to have. However, I have one concern. Will I be able to save my progress in a game with the Xbox 360 core set? If so then I am absolutely content with just the core set.

If you MUST get an X-Box, go for the HD.

Not to my knowledge. You have to have either a Hard Disk or a Memory Card to save. My recommendation? Get the $400 set. The Hard Drive alone is worth it. Separate, it costs $100. The Wireless Controller is worth it as well. Trust me.

Yeah but isn't the harddrive and wireless controller standered. I was led to believe it is.

You were decieved.
