    getting the 360

    so i made my decision.....im getting the 360

    now which package should i get?

    the pro or the elite

    there is a $100 diffrence

    idk what the diffrence is, my friend says that they fixed the overheating system in the elite which explains the price....and my other friend says that pro brings more

    im so lost

    which package should i get? or do you guys have any other suggestions....

    also do i need to buy a wireless network adapter? (another $100) to be able to do xbox live? =/

    I would probably go play video games or have sex (the usual) - Nominus Experse

    my mom would be like "ve? yo te dije, el internet no es bueno."

    "seriously, my mom tells me "que tu hase en eso el dia entero?" and im like "mami yo toy hablando con people" xD. spanglish, ftw." ~ liz

    Pro. The overheating "fix" (which is, the new Falcon motherboard) is in all of them now, not just elite.

    Personally, I bought the Pro. I don't think it's worth the extra $100 unless you have a black console fetish and an HDTV.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Doesn't the Elite also come with a bigger hard drive? I have the Elite one and it came with a 120GB hard drive; I don't know what the Pro comes with.

    Get the elite if you want to put alot of movies and music on your HDD.

    If you dont then get a Pro. Your wasting $100 otherwise.

    The Wireless adaptor is only necessary if you plan to go online using a wireless connection.

    Then if it's too far away to directly connect to, you'll need an adapter. Unless you want to try something like this.

    Pro is compatible with original xbox games, which is also a plus. But if you don't plan on playing those then I guess the elite is for you.

    All Xbox 360s are backwards compatible with the exact same Xbox games. I think Shiny might be confusing it with PS3 backwards compatibility. :P

    Yeah, pretty sure it's all software emulation (hence why they've had to patch in compatibility in the past), so there's not much worry about playing old games.

    Keep in mind, though, that there are still original Xbox games that don't work on the 360.
