let me try and make this clear. when you buy the arcade, if you're planning on getting a hard drive, you're really screwing yourself over. buying the premium is only about $60 more i believe, but buying the hard drive separately is $100. besides that though, the arcade can do pretty much everything else, although it requires the hard drive to go online. your memory space will be limited, you can fit a few game saves on there, sure, but no music, movies, or arcade games. BUT ANYWAY, when it's all said and done, a 360 is a 360, and no matter what version you get it's gonna be great. good luck :) ctfvyrsgurbnorn

thank u sir for explaining it more in depthly. after thinking about it i think ill go with 360 pro for only 70 bucks more.

[QUOTE="anman4707"]but once i have the need for a hard drive, cant i buy one seperatly and hook it on to the 360. and at first i wont have internet cause i dont have the 360 adapter and game saves dont take up that much space right? like how many game saves coud i fit on the arcade without buying a hard drivemsjr78
Are you referring to the wireless adapter? You don't need that to connect online unless you have no other option. It's ready out of the box to connect through a cable, but you would of course need the HDD to be online.

well we have wireless internet that works for my wii...and there isnt a plug thing right behind our entertainment center and my mom wont let me have a cord runing through the room so i think in order for the 360 to recieve the wireless signal u have to have the receiver right?

im looking at buying a 360. the cheapest one i can find is the arcade version. i know once i get allot of games and save stuff ill have to buy a hard drive and ill eventually buy the wireless adapter. but can the arcade version of the xbox 360 do everything the other ones can?

i read the preview that u linked and i think the motion controls sound kinda tacked on. ive never played the ps2 version, thats why this interested me but id think id rather save 30 bucks and go buy the ps2 version.

there are no races, only countries of people chuck norris has beaten to different shades of black and blue

there are no steriods in baseball.only players chuck norris has breathed on.

chuck norris once challenged lance armstrong to a "who has more balls" contest. chuck norris won by 5.
