| The Xbox 360 Arcade System gives you immediate access to the Next-Gen power of high-definition video, DVD movie playback, digital music, photos, online connectivity and of course the great gameplay that Xbox 360 is renowned for, while ensuring that you retain the flexibility to choose additional features to customize your system to your specific needs.  | | Xbox 360 Arcade bundle with included accessories | Under the Hood of Xbox 360 Xbox 360 is much smaller than its predecessor--it measures approximately 3.3 by 12.2 by 10.2 inches and weighs 7.7 lbs. It's powered by custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU with three symmetrical cores each running at 3.2 GHz. It also carries a custom ATI graphics processor with 10 MB of embedded DRAM. This is powerful enough to draw 500 million triangles per second. In other words, it makes for great looking games on standard TVs, and even better looking ones on HDTV sets thanks to built-in support for HDTV (720p/1080i/1080p) resolutions. The unit has a 12x dual-layer DVD-ROM drive, which plays both the game media and progressive-scan DVD movies right out of the box. For game-save and media storage, Xbox 360 Arcade System users can choose to stick with the Memory Unit included with the bundle, or upgrade to either the detachable 20GB hard drive or the 120 GB hard drive (both sold separately). Along with storing files, the hard drive will make the Xbox 360 backward-compatible with a large part of the existing Xbox game library. Control your Gameplay The Xbox 360 Arcade System comes with one Xbox 360 Wireless Controller with rumble. Xbox 360 uses a refined button layout for its controllers. Back and Start buttons sit at the center of the controller and between them is a new Xbox Guide button, which instantly takes the user to the Xbox 360 user "Dashboard" interface. From there, they can check for friends online, access personal digital content like photos songs, and more. The black and white buttons of the first Xbox controllers have been replaced with new shoulder buttons placed above the left and right triggers. The Xbox 360 can accommodate up to four wireless controllers and has three USB 2.0 slots to use for wired controllers or for streaming your digital media from digital cameras, MP3 players, and any Windows XP-based PC. Microsoft has also created a video-conferencing camera, sold separately, that will work with the system.  The Media Experience All Xbox 360 titles can be played in either standard or high-definition resolution in 16:9 widescreen, with anti-aliasing for smoother graphics. Game designers will be able to take advantage of the system's multi-channel surround sound. The Xbox 360's digital media allows users to supplement any game's music from tracks in their own personal library. Five titles are bundled on a single disc included with the Xbox 360 Arcade System. These are: - Feeding Frenzy
- Luxor 2
- Boom Boom Rocket
- Pac-Man Championship Edition
- Uno
Go LIVE Xbox 360's built-in Ethernet port allows users to connect their system to the Xbox LIVE service via their broadband connection. Utilize the free Xbox LIVE Silver Membership included with your console or upgrade to a Gold Membership to create a Gamertag and gamer card to express your online identity, chat live with voice chat (separately sold headset required), and connect to Xbox LIVE Marketplace to download free and premium expansions, maps, game demos, movies, TV shows and other digital content. The separately sold wireless network adapter supports the common 802.11a, -b, and -g standards. What's in the box - Xbox 360 console (without hard drive)
- 256 MB Memory Unit
- Wireless controller
- Xbox LIVE Silver membership
- Composite AV cable
- 5 Arcade LIVE titles (included on disc): Feeding Frenzy, Luxor 2, Boom Boom Rocket, Pac-Man Championship Edition, Uno
- Sega Superstars Tennis Game

Comment: Get a free Xbox 360 Elite and GAMES or [...]!!! Have a look at this video first:
[...]
I know that YOU do not want to spend YOUR MONEY on this expensive product. Please just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!
This Truly works I already have got a playstation 3 and $[...] cash. I know you will have doubts but this does work I promise you. YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR AmazingWebStores.com FOR $[...] GET YOUR CREDIT INSTANTLY AND CALL AND CANCEL IT RIGHT AWAY AND GET YOUR CREDIT. YOU CAN GET A PLAYSTATION 3 FOR $[...]. DON'T LET IT GET AWAY IVE GOT A COUPLE FREE THINGS FROM THIS PLACE GET UR CREDIT
There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp. com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free Xbox 360 Elite or cash (I did the Stamps. com for a 4 week free trial and it is free!). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 5-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.
)
Then they will ship your free Xbox 360 Elite or your selected item for free, I chose the Xbox 360 Elite. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY or any message boards, blogs, face book, my space or any place you hang out at. ! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.
Step 1: Copy and paste this link: [...]
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

Please take advantage of this offer!!!
Check It out NOW! Copy and paste this link [...]

Summary: No es Jasper!! - Its not a Jasper!!! 2008-11-07
Comment: Esta consola es lo mejor de lo mejor. Lo unico que lamento es que no es una Jasper pero si es una Falcon. La compré el 1 de noviembre de 2008 esperando que fuera de un lote mayor al 838 pero no fué así. Mi xbox arcade es del lote 834. En realidad lo que mas me ha dolido es que el dvd drive no se puede flashear porque tiene un liteon. Tendré que comprar 5 o 6 juegos originales esta navidad hasta que pueda flashear el dvd. Aparte de todo lo que he dicho, puedo decir que el 360 es la mejor consola del mundo y que no me arrepiento de haberla comprado porque tiene el mejor catalogo de juegos y la mayor relacion entre calidad y precio!!!

Summary: Inexpensive with limitless upgradability 2008-11-05
Comment: If you take nothing else away from this review, understand that the Arcade bundle is simply an Xbox 360 without a hard drive and some games thrown in. The games are nothing to go crazy about, but you can't beat the price.
The fact that this version doesn't have a hard drive is important because backwards compatibility (the ability to play old Xbox games) relies on emulator software which gets installed to the hard drive. If you hear someone saying that the Arcade version can't play old Xbox games, they probably don't realize that all you have to do is install a hard drive. Microsoft is running a promotion where you can get a 20GB hard drive with a free Gold Live subscription for around $30. This is way cheaper than retail.
It's also worth mentioning that some industrious individuals have figured out how use an inexpensive (~$60) 120GB (Western Digital BEVS) hard drive rather than paying four times as much for Microsoft's version. If you're interested I suggest googling "HDDHackr".
It appears that Microsoft has made some improvements on the Xbox 360 since they first came out, especially in cooling to help prevent the dreaded "Red Ring of Death" (RROD) which results from your console overheating. This is a great reason to buy one of these new consoles rather than a used one or old bundle.
If you've got the money, check out the Pro or Elite. If you're like me and would rather put that cash into a premium drum set for Rock Band 2 or rechargeable wireless controllers, the Arcade version is a great option.

Summary: great game system 2008-11-02
Comment: I don't actually own a version of the Arcade system ( i do have a hard drive and 360-launch system), but I wanted to submit a review to counter the low score provided by the absolutely incompetent review below... reviewing Gamestop has nothing to do with the quality of Xbox 360, which is an excellent system! Xbox Live, system exclusives (GOW!), and the ability to customize your system as you need (no paying for wireless unless you actually want it, etc.) make this an excellent game system, and the $200 price point makes it a great way to get in on this generation of consoles.

Comment: After having my ps3 stolen I went to GAME STOP, called first, was told they would give me $10 above trade-in for ps3 games must trade in 2, I had just purchased from them maden 2008, they said 25 cents (I had just bought from them for 19.95) so I did not qualify as you had to have 2 trade-ins worth over $1, also was informed that MS had new 20 gig hard drives for $40.00. after driving 25 miles each way then finding out the 20gig was $80 at MS site. the 11 free games turned out to be 5. Beware of Game stop. they will not return calls nor will there district manager (mail box full). Just a bunch of crooks.
