Hello, I have my Xbox 360 Arcade for 2 years. I've then got myself because my Elite or Premium were too expensive. The controller is very robust and is in my opinion better in the hand than the PS 3 Controller, this estimate is, however, purely subjective. I had my console never had problems because of RROD`s. In addition, yes a lot of people complain that online games with the Xbox costs money, in my opinion, are 30 in the year but not too much for such a good offer like that of Xbox Live. However, it is true that the arcade by the DVD drive is fairly loud, as it vibrates. That's why I hae me shortly thereafter bought a hard disk because you can install games to the hard drive and the drive noise so completely eliminated. However, all in all, the Arcade a opportune entry into the Xbox universe I would rather for Slim or to become cheaper Elite guess since there the hard drive is included and thus ceases the drive noise. I hope I could help you with my review.
