Ok i have too options:
Xbox 360 Premium + All the usual accessories, A Mega pack(steering wheel, DVD remote etc - worth £69.99), Halo 3, And any other game of my choice all for £250 brand new at argos
Xbox 360 Elite + All the usual accessories, any 2 games for free - £300 @ GameStation
I dont think ill need the 100 gig space, and apprently the HDMI cable and AV cable dont make a noticable difference when used on the same telly + I dont have a HD TV atm and don't think I'll be getting one soon
So what do you guys think? My gut instinct is to go for the premium but I dont know if I'll be missing out on anything.....need answers by saturday please

For me, it would be:
"What's 50 quid to me in the long run."
I would go for the Elite...
But then again, those extras do sound good.

as i say arien i doubt i'd need the 120gb HD and according to many reviews it doesnt make much difference in using a AV or HDMI port to plug into your HD tv.....aind according to a site i read the Xbox 360 premium was labelled as HDMI - Optional, Xbox 360 Elite - HDMI: Included :S
Engadget:
"basically, unless you are seriously eagle-eyed, have a massive friggin screen, or for whatever reason need to use HDMI because you're all out of component inputs, your investment in the first-gen Xbox 360 is probably safe"
cheers paul thats what i was hopng ppl would say.....although be honest ppl

Thats a mental deal tbh,
and reserve them online, take down all the prices, even print screen off the page with it confirming the price for £269.99

lol what do you mean?
and also.....I heard that the new 360 premiums come with HDMI port but not cable like the elite does.....will this be true for argos models?
Also is it true the elite runs a lot quieter than premiums?

I would never use a steering wheel or have need for a remote really. Personally, would go for the Elite...it's newer

nah, i'd use a steering wheel for games like forza 2:p
and hopefully i will get a prem with HDMI so therefore the only diff is for a bigger harddrive and diff colour...but white looks more modern....and i struggle to fill my 2 gig ipod nvm 20 gig or 120 gig
