    I'm almost sure someone has asked this before and sorry but I am looking into buying an xbox 360 and I hear there is two types arcade and something?..

    Am I hampered in anyway if I buy the arcade, I assume I am because its cheaper but what exactly do I lose?

    Cheers,
    Mike.

    hey the arcade doesnt have a hard drive i think it comes with just a memory card or some such, the other options are the pro which has a 20gb HD and the elite with a 120gb HD, it depends what you want it for.
    i think they all support hdmi output now aswell.
    anything else you need to know?

    Dont buy the arcade version. You dont get a hard drive or any HD cables.

    Yes but you won't be able to download demo's etc and probably no space for extra map packs.
