Either get an Elite, or one of the new Premiums with the HDMI port.

2. Should i wait till the Falcon 360 (small chip to prevent ring of death) also anyone no if it is in the 360s now or when it will be coming.

There's still no date for the new 360 to be released, so I would strongly suggest that you get one of the 360's mentioned above as soon as possible, so you can join the Halo Madness :P

definitely not the halo 360! its looks good but its overpriced. The premium is now a great choice since they now come with an HDMI port. I would say save your money and go for a premium. if you need a big HDD go for the Elite.

1. The Elite would be the best choice it saves money if you had the premium or halo3 360s then it would cost over 100 dollars or pounds for the 120 gigs so go for the elite.

2. Im not sure if you should wait my elites fine but you never know some peoples 360s break some dont.

3. Ok

Do not get that piece of Shi* Halo 3 360. Its just a premium 360 with a Shi* green and orange finish. Get the Elite, you get what you pay for there.

Are you going to use XBL? If so, get the Elite for the large HDD.

Buy the Elite, it's the most sensible option, loads of storage, HDMI. Will save you loads of money if you just went for a premium.

The elite is the best choice for what you get. If you are worried about what parts are in the system, the Halo 3 Edition will probably have the newest parts in it considering that they were probably the most recently manufactured. But to ease your mind, Ive never heard of anyone having any problems with an elite. Also, to completely cover yourself, when you buy your 360 get an in store warranty. Sure thats more money, but you can take it back to the store and they will give you a new one versus waiting 4-6 weeks for your system to come back from microsoft in case anything happens. Also, the Elite comes with the 120 GB HD compared to the 20 GB HD with the Halo 3/Premium 360s. Go for more storage as well. Elite it is my friend.

Dude the falcon is crap, and you already get a warranty with your Elite. Get that, you get everything a pro has in black, a 120GB harddrive, HDMI and cables. Plus it's 50 bucks more than the Falcon.

If your dad is buying it for you and he doesn't care, then there is no reason not to get an Elite. If he gets wierd about the extra $100 for the elite, then the pro/premium system, which I have, will be perfect for your needs. However, it is a good point that if you can't get the elite, then try for the Halo 3 version of the premium because they have been made much more recently.
