Do you think that I should buy a Arcade system with the two year warranty from Best Buy or Amazon? Anyone had any experiences with either? Thanks!

You don't need an extended warranty from Best Buy. It is the biggest rip-off and it's how they make their money. Microsoft's warranty on the box is good enough. Why go to best buy when you can save $15-20 in sales tax from buying on Amazon. I bought my xbox off of amazon and it's fine.

The Best Buy warranty voides the Microsoft one, and with that, if you get RROD, you're screwed with microsoft, and the Black Tie plan from Best Buy doesn't cover it.

So you're saying that I should just use the warranty that Microsoft gives you from the box?

Yes, i thinks its a 3 year warranty that covers RROD and e74 (to name the biggest 2 problems.) I would suggest gamestop to buy it.
