I jumped in and I gotta say its pretty freaken awesome. I actually convinced a wii owner to get a 360 today. He was already thinking about it because of the poor sports games on the wii. I asking him what was keeping him. He said the price. He could afford the core but he said its useless. I told him about the new Xbox 360 arcade and seemed he really intrested. He asked me when it came out but I didnt know the date. Can anyone give it to me?

Anyway Im sorry for going off-topic but many people already did so I don't think it will be much of a problem.

Here is the confirm note:

"Amazon.com has updated its listings unveiling a new Xbox 360 edition. Scheduled for release on October 23, 2007, the Xbox 360 Arcade Console has a price of $279.99.

The Core Edition of the Xbox 360 has been a victim of many rumors since Microsoft announced it will release different editions of its next-generation system. So far, the cheapest Xbox 360 has survived all the rumors that claimed it will be discontinued and it seems it will only be replaced by an updated model that will come with some Xbox Live Arcade games and possibly HDMI (since the next-generation A/V port has been incorporated in all other editions except the Core)

* UPDATE *

Toy "R" Us has also revealed an "Xbox 360: Arcade System" that will be released on October 25, 2007.
