The arcade pack doesn't bother me no more because it should show folks that paying that little bit extra can get them a Premium pack with a hard drive that gives them soo much more functionality like with the soon to be released update that allows full installs of games that is optional. Also backwards compatibility of original Xbox games as well.

I think the Elite should be around £209.99.

Well just to throw your bollox out again, I will be buying an arcade this Friday, why? Well my daughter wants a 360, she’s 10 so I won’t be allowing her on live just yet and why does she need a HDD when a 256 mem card will hold her viva piñata saves all well and good? The arcade will be the casual gamer’s choice,

an arcade with, Lips, Viva Piñata Trouble in Paradise and a That at the Movies thingy with Vision Camera, I can see a bundle for xmas @ £189.99? Maybe even at the Wiis sweet point of £179.99, not everyone is al core gamer who want a 360!

Sorry I was under the insumption that kids were all after the Wii...Sorry for my ignorance...

Given your history of rude and aggressive responses perhaps you should not buy have an Xbox 360 but perhaps spend the money getting her a better education than you because from the way you tend to speak you sure are full of only profanity most of the time!!

if i was 16/17 £130.00 would be a lot of money and £170.00 even more so, so if i coudl pick me up a 360 for £130.00 i would! lets not forget play.com that usally sells theres with £10.00 saving meaning the console will be around for £119.99!!! this xmas will see massive 360 sales which = good for me as i need some noobz to crush on halo 3 as im getting worse with age!

Yes you do make a very good point, I guess the Arcade pack can be seen as a superb buy considering its got a wireless controller, 5 arcade games and a 256mb memory card.

Also as the other person said pre-owned prices will come down even more as well so an arcade 360 could be £100 and who knows a premium at £130 but most likely that will be the 20gb model...

My mate is getting an arcade pack because of the new price and its a true bargain.
