Most people on here are stilling looking at there arguments from people who love gaming and in many cases is there main pass time. The fact is there are many people out there that cant and wont puy close or over 300 dollars for a gaming system plus the 60 dollar games on top. There are many people out there that want to play games like cod4 bbioshock assasins creed froza and all the other great new hd games out there but simply cant because they dont have the money or want to spend that much money on a console. The arcade is perfect for them this is the system for the people who just want to play these great new games and arnt really intarested in any of the other features the 360 offers. People keep saying "well ms is ripping you of when you add in all the extras" but the bottom line is if you want a next gen system that plays next gen games and thats all you want then you can for 199. Remember if teh reports we had on here are true and ms does bring out the 60gig hard drive bundle pack(which they have already announced for eu) for 100 dollars then it does really open up nice options for the consumer because you can get a arcade 199 save up and buy the hard drive bundle 100= 299 thats the exact same as the pro but you have done it over time instead of shelling out all that money in one go. The only diff will be you still wont have hd cables but you will have a 215mb memory card and 3months xbox live.
