I mean your attempted joke about a newer version coming out by Christmas was a poor effort, and that further attempts could be better.What do you mean?

Understood, but there is no "Pro" version of this new one, so I'm not sure where you were going with that.The older models aren't being produced anymore.
The Slim design isn't going to trickle down to the other models?Understood, but there is no "Pro" version of this new one, so I'm not sure where you were going with that.
If I were to guess, it would be this single new model alone for the rest of this year, with the 2 older models slotting in as the "bargain" versions for the holiday season. Then next year, after the launch of Kinect has settled in, and the older models are pretty well phased out, they could introduce a wider range of models.The Slim design isn't going to trickle down to the other models?
I've heard that the older Arcade and Pro models are no long in production. What is going to happen once they're no longer in stock?If I were to guess, it would be this single new model alone for the rest of this year, with the 2 older models slotting in as the "bargain" versions for the holiday season.

The older models are no longer being made, that is correct.I've heard that the older Arcade and Pro models are no long in production.
My guess, as I stated earlier...What is going to happen once they're no longer in stock?

LOL, yea because one of those large chunks of black plastic is soooo much better looking than the other two. None of the current consoles are "good" looking, if we're being totally honest. They are just boxes, that perform a function. Who cares?
So the only model they're going to sell is the Elite Slim one once the supplies on the current Arcade and Pro are out?The older models are no longer being made, that is correct.
My guess, as I stated earlier...
I give up. I'm not the droid you're looking for. Move along. Move along.So the only model they're going to sell is the Elite Slim one once the supplies on the current Arcade and Pro are out?

^ Right now I'd go for a PS3 since I prefer the exclusives for that over the Xbox. You won't go wrong with either though. Sports titles (at least the very popular ones) are always multiplatform. Online play is better on the Xbox though you have to pay a subscription for it. The new Xbox has built in Wifi.
That's pretty much it in a nutshell!
The Arcade units have built in 256MB for game saves, so that isn't an issue. Of if you need more space, any USB drive can be formatted to use as well.I looked into the 360 Arcade version and balked immediately because it sounds like something for people who never want to save a game.
...I bought a Wii because of the virtual console games from old systems and the Zelda: Twilight Princess game available at launch. It was also $250 at the time versus like $400 and $600...
I think this is coming to PC or PSN as well.Magic: The Gathering game on 360 that sounds interesting...
There is no point, but lots of people will tell you "you need all the room you can get." I stream all of my media content to my xbox. I only use the hard drive for downloadable games, game saves, and to "install" disc games to the drive. You can use a usb drive (16GB max) instead of a hard drive on the xbox....the point of such big hard disks to me on the 360 and PS3.
Normally I would recommend a PS3 for the blu-ray player, but it seems pointless since you already have 2.... I have two BD players.
...I also don't want to see Tim Tebow's stupid face on NCAA Football for the next year. I would pay $100 for the game if I could get anybody on the cover but that douche. Unfortunately, even a replaced cover won't cover up the art in the game. AUGGH.
There are 2 very good reasons for having a large hard drive, especially on the 360. You mentioned the game installs. That is the best reason ever. Not only do many games load things a little quicker, but the console becomes much quieter. The disc drive on the 360 is the source of much of its noise. By installing, you keep that drive from spinning while playing, and the system is MUCH quieter.There is no point, but lots of people will tell you "you need all the room you can get."
