xbox 360

What is the difference between an xbox 360 premium and xbox 360 arcade? I am going to get an xbox 360 arcade included with some furniture from roomstogo and I'm wondering what the difference between that and an xbox 360 premium is. I heard that the only thing was the hard drive. If that is the case then could I just buy a hard drive and it would be the same thing as a premium?

I think with the current direction of the market, you might want to go for a new, 250 GB Xbox 360 Slim to be on the safe side, RRoD-wise. But you are correct, the only thing different about the arcade is the hard drive.

If I'm right, the Xbox 360 Arcade comes with a wireless controller, 4 Xbox Arcade games, and a 256 MB memory stick.

If i had to choose, i would pick the Premium, since it comes with a 20GB hard drive, the console, and a controller.



As for what Frosty said, the 250GB Slim would be the best choice, but it costs way more than the Arcade or Premium. But it's probably the safest, not having nearly as many problems as an Elite.

Or wait until next year when Microsoft plans to release the next Xbox console! Or in that time, save up and buy a PC I would go for the slim personally. Much more reliable than any of the past consoles.

that is true, even the Xbox premium freezes where it has no reason to sometimes

The Arcade actually comes with 4GB of memory built in, while the Premium comes with a 250GB hard drive. They haven't carried the version with the 20GB hard drive ever since they went with the re-design.

Oh, it does? Huh. I was under the assumption that the Premium only had the 20GB version.

Pretty sure they cancelled the Elite, and made it so that there's the Premium and Arcade version of the Slim.
