All I'm saying is that it's pretty hypocrit for Microsoft to tout the Xbox360 as the online machine with all their advertising around XboxLive and exclusive DLC content and then turn around and sell people a machine that can't do those things without separate upgrades....
Basically the Arcade lacks the features which are usually the ones that make some players buy an Xbox over a PS3....
Make a list of the reasons why some prefer an Xbox360 over a PS3.
I bet ya at least 3 of them are missing on the Arcade.
Beside like others pointed out in this thread it is bound to make people buy the wrong thing as parents buying an Xbox for their kids probably aren't Xbox features specialists like we are and some are bound to buy the cheapest one, not knowing it may not be what the kid want...
