Probably wanting to get rid of all the arcades so they can discontinue them.

nope, not true.

there are a couple of great games like Castle Crashers and Splosion Man that are download-only though that need hard drive space, (and downloadable content like you mentioned), and i would recommend picking up a used hard drive off craigslist (even the smallest size is more than enough i find) for $20-30 to throw on there. again, not necessary though if you're just burning games to discs.

Could always pony up a bit more though: http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/rch/ele/1629608374.html

the 360 is a poorly designed POS to begin with, the Arcade really is a joke of a console imo.

and Microsoft selling them so cheap cuts into my profits. so balls on that.

oh and you don't need a hdd to mod. get your facts straight before posting.

Dont mind him. He's the RS Xbox Nazi.

He's the resident Xbox Pro that likes to make "noobs" feel like shit. It's in his blood. Although he may seem quite e-thuggish on the surface but everything he says is usually right and quite informative.

yeah sorry, I get a little irritated when dealing with 360/PS3 noobs (haven't learned Wii yet and don't care to) and some silly bitch is threatening me with b/s when I haven't eaten all day. So fail removed now that I've had some Chef Boyardee.

And thanks Cman, I tend to know my shit with the 360 and PS3, but I'll admit I've been out of the loop on the latest "hack"
