360 vs 360elite

360 looks the best so far, but i'm skeptical on which version to get. The elite is $80 more?, but it comes with an HD output. can someone explain what that is, and does it play HD for every game?

(dont flame, last console i had was dreamcast)

The 360 comes with 20 gb ram, elite 120 gb.

The elite has hdmi 1.2 port for High definition the 360 does not.

Both 360 and Elite are 100% defective and will breakdown, hope i helped.

"If you thought that Sony was the only console manufacturer having a really bad day, guess again. After many months of public complaints and outcries, Microsoft has publically admitted that *ALL* (as in every single one ever sold) Xbox360's have a design defect that can lead to their failure. Though Robbie Bach, head of Microsoft's Xbox360 Division refused to elaborate on the issue, the general consensus is that it's one of botched thermal design management and inadequate dissipation of heat leading to component failure. All of the nearly 12 million units currently in the hands of consumers are effected. Though Microsoft has not issued a global recall, they have tripled the warranty coverage period, and are expected to have to dole out over $1 Billion to correct the situation.

Here's the problem with the Elite, it comes with HDMI but what good is it when no games are going to be made to go to 1080p any way because nearly everyone owns the regular 360 that only goes to 1080i. So you should either get a PS3 or a regular 360. casey7672

The 360 can upscale all games to 1080p. Even so, the 360 can also pass 1080p via component cables if your TV accepts. Mine accepts 1080p over both but I still got the Elite.
