Pro Bundle or Elite?

Ok, I have found stores that have both the Pro Bundle or the Elite system. Which one is a better deal? I know the Elite comes with the HDMI (which I would plan on using), but does the Pro System have HDMI as well, and if so, how much do HDMI cables cost? So, overall, which one is a better deal, the Pro for $349.99 or the Elite for $449.99?

i have elite.........

If the Pro comes with the HDMI and you don't need all that storage space (which chances are you don't) then Pro is the way to go. If it doesn't come with the HDMI, I'd get the Elite since the cable itself is like $50.jrobinow

LOL we're not talking about an HDMI cable... we are talking about an HDMI port on the 360 below the standard component port... this allows you to either use HDMI to HDMI on a TV or HDMI to DVI on a Monitor for a true digital signal and picture... as opposed to analogue...

Hmmmmm, the OP specifically asked how much the HDMI cable costs. I was just trying to be helpful.

the Pros have HDMI, but not the cable, the Elite does include the cable

i'd go for the Elite (which might also have those 2 free games), if you have an HDTV

No HDMI cable cost $50 and is worth it for the price...

I think you are refurring to Best Buy where they try to sell you their "Super Delux 24-karat Gold Plated HDMI Cable"... I have a cable from newegg.com that cost $4.99 and I have had it for about 2 years now with no problems...

So a free HDMI cable should not be your selling point on a console $100 more expensive...

Yeah if you buy Elite now... some places give 2 free games to... newegg.com is doing that... same $449.99 price with 2 free games...

Forza 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance are the free games...

I'm referring to the cable that comes packaged with the Elite:

The better VALUED 360 is the pro, but the better one is obviously the elite. redboxa

How do you figure? The Elite comes with accessories priced above the $100 price difference between the two bundles (the hard drive alone costs $180). The Pro is the better PRICE if you don't need the hard drive or HDMI cable, not the better VALUE.
