    Core has been replaced by the Arcade.

    So the lineup used be Core then Premium.

    Now it's Arcade, Premium then Elite.

    See breakdown here:

    its typically €200 for one with a wireless controller, 5 arcade games and a 256mb memory card although i'm sure you'll get deals with games if you shop around

    Some shops still have core models in stock, sure i saw them in smyths for like 180e not so long ago, arcade much better, though.Dont forget , no hd cables with arcade, any sub 10e hdmi cable will do perfectly

    Gamestop are doing second-hand consoles - you might pick up a premium for the same (or similiar) money.

    The free aracde games are a joke, they only run from disc/. You cant install them to hard drive like other arcade titles. :rolleyes:

    Cheers for the replies!
    I'm only looking for the basic console itself, dont need any extras or anything.

    Me brother has been using my xbox for ages as his kinda died a bit (kept saying insert the CD - yes they were inserted)

    I wasn't aware of this. Good to know. Makes it less of a good deal.
