Wow this is turning out to be a spectacular launch!

I'm definately looking into xbox's now. Play have got an xbox (premium) and GTA for £200, seem a good deal but i dont really want the premium. I'd be happy with the arcade. Bu the arcade is about £150 everywhere and factor in GTA i've spend £200. I can't seem to find any deals regarding the arcade. And before you ask yes i'd normally buy second hand,and i've already looked on ebay, but my brothers RROD'ed and i've seen multiple on here go, i'd rather not risk that tbh

Dude, get the premium! You won't regret it, you get lots of good stuff with the premium. The arcade isn't as good. Or when it was the core is wasn't.

Yep, I'd go Premium over Arcade too. There's too much missing and for £40 difference including the game you can't go wrong.

I'm assuming the HD will be essential for DLC too, so for that reason alone I'd go for that even if you only ever plan on playing GTA4

Has to be the premium to be honest, the HD is pretty esential for all sorts of things, you can't get replays on some of the driving games without it and you can't store DLC

Agreed, the Arcade pack is aimed only at the really casual gamers, families and such. If you'll likely get the GTA DLC in the future then I reckon the hard drive will be essential, so a Premium is the minimum you need to get.
