Alright, my dad is buying an xBox360 in about a month or so...We are looking at the xBox360 Pro... But I want to know if the Elite has anything besides the extra 100 Gigs of HD space? If you use some technical talk, please tell me what it means And also, the xBox360 arcade version? What is it? I mean what differences does it have from the Pro besides the HD? I'm only asking about that because my friend is also getting a 360...and he is looking into that sense it is cheap.

Go to the web site. They have a chart that compares all three.

Really? Thanks.
EDIT:
Alright I looked at them.
Seems like pro is the way for me to go...
But as for the arcade, do you guys think 256 mb of memory is sufficient for just saving data and having xbox live if you dont download the free addons?

I think another downfall to the arcade version is no backward compatibility...if you want that.

I thought there wasn't much price difference between Xbox and PS3...

There is about a $50 difference between the two, but it's worth it considering the breakdown rate between the two. I guess you get what you pay for.

Yes, but at least online support is free for the ps3...what do you have to pay for the xbox? Don't get me wrong, I would eventually like to get a 360, but my original one suits me just fine.

We could go round and round all day, but it's just a matter of opinion. I just happen to disagree with most everything you have said.

MMMM im fan of the best product in quality/final price relation
and... what u gonna tell... yeah, ps3 looks the same than xbox360 and suxbox its cheaper...
yeah, but how many time have studios been programing games for 360 and ps3? what would u spect in a console like 360 that have like 2 years of being programmed agains ps3 that have a year and both look equal...
what about the free online? 50 usd is the difference between xbox and ps3?
ps3 is taking that online servide within those 50 usd?
360 is cheaper now?
what other accesories u need in the 360 to make what u can do with a ps3?
how much do they cost you?
if u still think 360 is the best, ok, its no my money, but i would preffer to spend that money on a ps3

it really doesnt matter which one is better at all.
it matters what games you want and if most of them are on the 360, get one, if you like more on ps3, get one.
personally i want a ps3 cuz i wanna finish the metal gear series, but would probably get a 360 so i could play live with all my friends.....

I wanted info Wii > 360&PS3 in gameplay 360 > Wii > PS3 in online play There, now we are all happy stop smoking d00d COD4 and NBA 08 on the PS3 are fantastic. fifa is hella good too... iono i just think the PS3 gives you more for your money...computer, blu-ray player, fantastic for gaming but the best buy for your money is the PS2. seriously. you can get hooked up with a PS2 the GTA series and like 11 other games for about 400 buckaroos oh and like 2 controllers...which the PS3 and Xbox 360 make a killing on...i guess they have to cuz for every PS3 sold Sony loses money...right?

Well let's look at what I am wanting the console for.
Online gameplay with friends.
Yeah, don't point out AGAIN that PS3 have free online game stuff.
ALL of my friends have a 360, except 2 or 3.
NONE of them have a ps3.
ALL of them have xBox live.
Now can someoen answer my question about the arcade versoin?

I don't think there would be enough room to save if you guys play a lot of different games. If you play just one or two you should be o.k. I do believe that you can upgrade the HD right? Like the Ps3 if you wanted to.

When it comes down to it, a lot of it IS based upon opinion. However, my firm belief and opinion is that the 360 has the BEST online feature out of any of the systems out currently. Oh fine, you have to pay for it and what not, but quite honestly for the service you're getting it's not a lot of money. The fact is, there are more people playing on Xbox Live than PS3 online. As well, the Xbox's internet is simply better in general. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to play a game online with a PS3 only to get an error message that basically punches me in the face and says "Can't play online sorry here play single player har har har" I personally don't own a PS3, but I go over to my friends house a lot and the only thing that he owns IS a PS3. I don't know if it was the games he has, or his own PS3, but I'm basing it off of the smidgen of experience I had with it. Then there's the Xbox internet functionality, which basically requires very little effort to get an online game going. I've never had an issue with the online service with the 360. Now, does this mean that the 360 is better than the PS3? Absolutely not. Is the PS3 better than the 360? Again, absolutely not. Neither is really "better" than the other, the gist of it is that each have their own strengths and weaknesses. I personally play my Wii WAY more than I play my 360. This is partially due to the fact that I don't have a lot of games for my 360, but really the only game I've been playing on my Wii (Until J_Bourne recently took it back from me) was Brawl, and quite frankly I can see myself playing that game for much more time than any other 360 game. So my point is this: Wii, all about the gameplays. 360, all about the online plays PS3, all about the graphics and Metal Gear, and probably Final Fantasy XIII's, and Disgaea 3 Those are the ONLY 3 games I'm really excited for the PS3, and that's mostly due to the fact that many really good games haven't been released for the PS3.

I personally would wait until Microsoft releases its Blu ray Xbox 360 in around May or something. Blu Ray IS going to be the HD format and at the moment the xbox only supports HD-DVD, which is going down quicker than the titanic For the record . I have a ps2 , but my next console would be a Blu Ray xbox
