my mind is definetely set on gettin the 360 now, but i still cant decide between the premium and the elite. im not gonna be downloading movies or tv shows, just demos and maybe some arcade games. is the 120gb hard drive worth it if im not gonna download many things? will a 120gb hard drive be needed in the future for bigger downloads maybe? and is it worth it just for the black finish and black controllers?

I have the Premium version with the 20GB and have about 6G's left with about 6 demos right now, and 10 arcade games. Once you play a demo, you're gonna delete it anyway. I've kept a couple of nice Mass Effect videos on the 360 to kinda get an idea of what it will look like on my TV when the game comes out. So unless you're going to be downloading a lot of other stuff, 20GB is more than enough.

The black is not worth the extra money. I believe the new premium versions also come with HDMI? better cooling, so I'd save my money, buy the premium and maybe pick up some games also..

100% true Raz. The only way I could justify a 120 gig harddrive is if you use your 360 a media center(ie music and stuff)

my media center is my computer where i keep all my music, photos, videos, and all that other stuff. so if i get a 360 i'll only play games, download demos, and maybe get 1 or 2 arcade games. i mite not even get 1 arcade game. and im afraid to say this but... "buh buh buh teh 360 is black!!!" is there any place where u can change the white 360 skin to black? cuz IMO black looks so much cooler 8)

The Premium has better cooling then the Elite? I hadn't heard that before. I have an Elite but that's just because I exhanged and old 360 and paid the difference.
