When you buy it, i comes with 5 arcade games on 1 disc, with that system, that's basically all you can play. It cannot do Xbox live. .........................................

360 pro is the best for playing online b/c it's cheaper than the elite and comes with harddrive You need a harddrive to play Xbox Live. You can buy an arcade for 200$ and then buy a harddrive or use one you already have Or you can buy a pro for 250$. The Pro version also has a silver disc drive whereas the arcade is completely white

no more pro

the arcade doesnt come with a harddrive but its cheaper the pro comes with a 60 gig harddrive the elite comes with the same stuff as the pro but it has a 160 or 120 gig harddrive and its black

Before you read anything else go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360 and scroll down to the chart that tells you the exact differences between the systems. The xbox 360 Arcade is the entry level for the Xbox 360.

This sytem is currently priced at $199.99 The Xbox 360 Pro (sometimes referred to as Premium and packaged as simply Xbox 360 with the subheading "Go Pro") includes all the features of the Xbox 360 Arcade and includes a hybrid composite and component cable with optional optical out instead of a composite cable. This model also includes a detachable 60 GB Hard Disk Drive (previously a 20 GB HDD) to store downloaded content, provide compatibility with original Xbox games, and store game data. The included hard drive comes with game demos, video clips and a free Live Arcade game, Hexic HD. it features HDMI 1.2 output and an improved GPU heatsink. Although this package does include an HDMI 1.2 output, it does not come with HDMI 1.2 cables This motherboard includes the new 65-nm CPUs, making them quieter and cooler than the older systems.

The Xbox 360 Elite is the most expensive variation of the console. It includes a 120 GB hard drive and a matte black finish. The Elite retail package also a controller and headset that match the system's black finish. newer Elite models using the Jasper chipset. consoles are bundled with Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures and Kung Fu Panda. The Elite's price tag is $299 . However, the $299 package no longer includes games or an HDMI cable you are luck id you find one that does. I hope all this info helped

The difference is memory. You should get an Xbox 360 Pro because it comes with a 60 GB hard drive and that lasts a while. And if you do run out you can by 60 more GB's of hard drive at game stop and take out your old one and insert the new hard drive.

Elite has 120 GB hard drive. Pro 60 GB hard drive Arcade 512 MB

I would go with the pro, but if you had the extra money go for the elite its only $299 dollars now which is a steal I got my normal xbox for 500
