Ok so i am only getting a core system because I don't go online. i like to just play by myself or with my friends at home. but i have heard to get the premium system but i need to know is that only because of the online. any other advice would be greatly appreciated. thank you
Buying a core or premium system has nothing to do with the way you play; online or off. The premium comes with a hard drive, and if you plan on saving your game progress, get the premium.
You'll need a 64mb memory card to save your games which I believe goes for 39 American dollars and if your going HD you'll need to buy HD cables thats basically why people say get the premium since it comes with a 20Gb hard drive and HD cables for only 100 dollars more almost forget about the free 5 dollar arcade game Hexic
So why even have a core system if you cant save on it. Please help me because i make enough money to just get a premium but i am just very very confused.
The core system is just to get you started if you don't actually have the extra hundred dollars or so, the problem there isn't really a deal there.
By the time you pick up the hard drive and a wireless controller (both included in the premium) you haven't saved any money, but have actually spent more, and if you were like me and had to get a memory card to get yourself started.Â
 Bottom line the premium system is where the deal is, and if you have a fancy HD TV you may want to think about the elite version since it has outputs for the higher end HD displays.
probably so Microsoft could make millions from people buying 64mb memory for 40 dollars when it couldnt cost them more than 5 dollars to make same with the 20gb harddrive
So i should get the premium because it already has the memory and i may want to play online someday. Ok. oh and i own a LCD tv so should that be good because those are the second best you can buy. only second to the HD.
Unless it is high end HD screen I would just stick with the premium model, only thing elite really boosts is (and correct me if I wrong) HDMI and optical output, 120gb HD and black casing.
OK you guys have sold me and i am now getting the premium if there is anything else i should know about the 360 that will help i would greatly appreciate anything you know.
