Alright I've decided to get an Xbox 360, should I get Premium or Elite? - 08-31-2007, 01:51 PM

Right so I finally have decided to get a 360, but which one should I get, premium or elite?

I have a 48 inch plasma 1080p HDMI tv.

Money really isn't an issue too much, but what is the better deal?

If money isn't an issue, get the elite(120gb) and extended store warranty.

I think you mean Elite with the 120GB

But dude get the Elite only if you like black and need the extra space.

I say get the Premium and buy extra games/Xbox Live/accessories if money isn't an issue. The Elite won't have better graphics or anything.

Well, cosindering to the news that the new Premium is going to be with HDMI, buy a Premium, cause 120GB HDD doesn't make sense at all. Why would you need that for?
And is it true that with Elite you get 2 wireless joysticks? If yes - it's worth buying Elite than.

I just got back from a trip so I couldn't respond sooner.

Anyways, it's true that premium has HDMI now, and that I probably could live with 20gigs, but I heard premium doesn't come with HDMI cables.

Now I don't know the exact price since I haven't looked for it in a store, but on Amazon.com the HDMI cable goes for 50 bucks, I guess I could go on component cables but that only goes up to 1080i and I'd rather get the maximum for my TV, 1080p.

So I'll probably be getting the elite, it's technically 50 bucks more for a 120gig Hard drive, one free month of xbox live, and a nice black finish with black headset and black wireless controller, plus HDMI cable, component cables, and internet cable.

Overall for 50 dollars more it's the right idea.



Though before I get an elite I'm gonna look at the military base store my dad has access too, it has really good deals for everything and sometimes they've had 360 premiums plus a TON of other stuff for a great price,.
