Yes, someday there will be a larger capacity hard drive for the XBox 360. But if you got your hopes up that it was coming soon, those hopes might now be dashed.

It appears that image of the 100GB hard drive accessory on Engadget is a fake--at least that's what Engadget-rival Gizmodo has reported. Naturally, if we hear differently, we'll update you. But for now, all bets are off the new drive. Damn, it hurts.
