Well i was thinking about it for a long time, Wii brought me back to gaming big time in 2007, time to expand my gaming library with different system. Funds were the problem in the past, but ive just found out that i got a good payed job for the summer (which should help me with Uni mainly) so i can finally buy another system. Probably in the end of May beginning of June.

Beetween 360 and PS3, 360 is a clear winner for me, mainly due to the huge price difference of it and also the western RPG's released for it.

To save money  im really tempted just to get an Arcade or a Used Pro (i know the RROD but it will have at least 12 month warranty) since it will be my secondary system (for WRPG's, JRPG's, some fighters and RE5) next to the Wii .

Just to ask few questions:

If i buy an Arcade can i still use all the features? (apart from stuff that requires the HDD)

For me personally, I think you will ultimately miss having an HDD.  You might even be able to find a cheap 20GB used.  I have a 20GB, and it tends to be enough.  A few demos, a few XBLA games, and room for one installed game at a time.

If after buying an Arcade i buy used Harddrive will my Xbox be able to use DLC like PRO or Elite?

Yes

Or should i just save some more cash (wanted just to get few more games instead) and get a Pro?

Either or, but I really think you'll want an HDD eventually

Games that im planning to buy in near future (bolded the ones im getting straight away):

Mass Effect (got a PC version, but yet to play it, im more likely to start after buying new system)

Fallout 3 (love it, im separated from my PC at home, so that would enable me to play again and play the DLC)

Lost Odyssey

Tales of Vesperia (when it releases in PAL)

Blue Dragon

Resident Evil 5

Fable II

New Fight Night

Any other games that you think would interest me? Are there any Zelda like games on the 360 worth trying?

Most of these games are full of awesomeness, but Mass Effect and Fable 2 are easily the best of those.
