Buying Xbox 360 need help with these questions.?

Question

Which is better the Arcade or the new 60GB model? Also is there really going to be a price drop in september and for which model? And do you need to buy store warranty when a new console comes with a warranty from Microsoft? Last question. How do you set up the on-line through the Ethernet cable? (I only know how to set up wi-fi but don't want to spend the extra money)

Answer 1

60GB! but price drop has only been temporary because they are phasing out the 20GB one. After they are all sold out the price of the 60GB will be $299. Its only temporary.

Answer 2

One answer to resolve all you questions. Scrap the 360 idea and get a PS3.

Answer 3

well dont get arcade version because u regret it not having a hard drive

60gb is nice amount space and has all new chip sets 4 sure

yes price drop in sept i have aready seen a ad for the elit 50 dollors cheaper

no u dont need buy a store warranty (you can  buy wrranty if u liek so u can return it to the store if something gose wrong  vs shiping for 2-3 weeks  xbox been geting alot better  so ya if u buy 1 year warranty might be a waste   go best buy and get like 2-3 year warranty if u want one

theres 3 year warranty on rrod

with online all u do is plus ethernet cable in back of xbox and plug other end  in router/modem  and then you click join xbox live on the dash board  

Answer 4

if your ganna use alot of hard drive then 60gb if not then arcade and its really easy to hook up

Answer 5

1) 60GB model has more memory which is very useful. 2) Not that I've heard of but there will be eventually as all consoles have a price drop dew to how new it is. 3) The only thing really that wrecks a 360 most commonly is the 3 red rings of death which Microsoft will give you an automatic extra 3 year warranty upon receiving these 3 rings. 4) Either find a phone jack or a jack somewhere on your computer.

Hope this helps!

Answer 6

The new one is beter as it has an anti red ring added to it so you shouldnt get the overheating problems the old arcade ones have. I dont know of any price drops but historicly every 3 years there is a bit of one. you dont need the store warranty unless you plan of spilling stuff on them or something. Once you plug in your ethernet cable you just make a name for xbox live and it walks you through everything
