You may want to wait for the new version (with HDMI and larger HDD) coming out in a bit, though there are some fairly cheap premium bundles out there ...

yes totaly get a xbox360 premium or :arrow: wait for de new one that come whith 120gb H.H.D and HDMI if it comes out. If you buy a core you'll end up losing money :?

and when it come to game: mass effect, halo 3, bioshock, armored core 4
if you can buy it! or wait for a price cut thats what I'm gonna do

bye

There were rumours (now almost official) about a $500 (?) 360 with 120GB HDD, HDMI port and maybe a new processor (cooler/faster) coming out.

Sorry couldn't find the exact link, but there were rumours (now almost official) about a $500 (?) 360 with 120GB HDD, HDMI port and maybe a new processor (cooler/faster) coming out.

No it isn't close to official. It is still a complete rumor.

I read that article about HDMI and it really doesn't talk about anything other than specs. How does it compare to DVI and VGA? Is it marginally better looking than the other two, slightly better looking?

Yes, get a Xbox 360. It is definitely worth the $432 some odd dollars! You could wait for the latest version of the Xbox 360 which may be coming out late Spring. The new 360 is more then a rumor. Real pictures have been released showing the console and Microsoft reps have already hinted at it's release.

It will have a smaller, cooler, quieter and faster processor. HDMI support and a 120 GB HDD.

The Xbox 360 has the best online gaming platform on the market. If you like massive WW II battles with tanks and all then Call of Duty 3 is great for online play. Gears of War is good for online play, Call of Duty 2 is good, Rainbow Six Vegas is phenominal online, FEAR is good online. Pretty much any Xbox 360 game that can be played online is good.

Well the premium is pretty much better in all ways. It comes with the 20 GB HDD, a wireless controller, headset, component cables, and the console. The core only comes with the system, a wired controller and, composite cables. So you won't be able to save games or go on xbox live unless you buy the $40 memory card (which you still can't go on live with) or buy the $100 HDD.
