Yes, another one of these topics, but none of the other topics are really doing it for me, and don't say google it, because I've been doing that for the past hour and probably will be while I wait for replies here. Here are my details:

I am a PS3-Wii owner, and have been eyeing the 360 for about a year now, I have a limited amount of money, I know I want a hard drive, and am interested in alot of the games. What I want to know is, should I get one, and if so, which one (core, premium, elite, ect.) should I get, I want opinions, none of the PS3 SUXORS stuff. Tell me your opinions on what I should do, I can do the price reseach myself, just answer please.

Yes you should, if you have enough money, get the elite its $400 and brings just about everything you need. Plus the new xbox 360 red elite with RE5 comes out in 2 weeks. If you dont have the money, get the pro. $300 it brings a 60gb hardrive

The pro is the best buy for the $. You really need a hard drive but 120 gigs is silly.

to tell you the truth if you have a PS3 then I wouldnt bother getting a 360 cause most of the games are on PS3 already. I have all three but I only play my 360 and there is really no need for me to have a ps3.

Its $300 with the 60 gb harddrive, the 250 one brings a 20gb harddrive I think. It brings everything you said + the cables. Anyways those 2 games are terrible. Lego Indiana Jones/Kung Fu Panda.

I'm actually in a slightly similar predicament and while I would love to have something shiny and new in my living room I'm going to settle for something used. I've seen the 20gig models floating about for roughly $200. My dilemma is more about the size of the harddrive. I plan on getting Street Fighter 4, and eventually Fallout 3, Bioshock and many other great games. So "what's an adequate harddrive size?" is the problem for me. Of course, I could always buy a harddrive for the console...Okay so not much help, but I would recommend looking around locally for something used, but make sure to ask a lot of questions.

Alright, that covers that, I will fet a pro ( if I get one at all), what I need now is to assess what games I should get if I do get one, any suggestions?

I have been looking into Halo Wars, Halo 3, Left for Dead, and Fable 2, any other suggestions?

Get an Elite if you can (you can get the RE5 bundle for $400) but if you are limited for money just pick up a Pro w/ a 60GB HDD.

I think you should get an Xbox 360. As for which model, it depends. If youre going to buy alot of games and install them onto youre harddrive, then Id buy an Elite. Same with buying Arcade and Xbox Original games, if youre going to buy a good bit then go with the Elite. If youre going to buy the bulk of your games on your Playstation 3, then I suggest going with a pro since you'd likely be buying only Exclusives on the Xbox. Like me, I plan to buy an 80 Gig Playstation 3 this March. Im only buying Exclusives on my Playstation 3, but Id like to play some Playstation 2 games aswell and the 40 Gig wont play them. Ill buy most multiplat games on my 360 (Unless theyre single player only, those go on Playstation 3), and the exclusives go to their Respective systems. Hope I helped, and I welcome you to the Xbox 360 Community. I hope you enjoy it x)
