I am on the fence about getting one, I have friends with them but not one who hasn't had RROD at least once. There are a few game on 360 I want, mainly Gears and Alan Wake, but I just don't know.

The room I am in gets VERY hot, I hear of 360s killing themselves so in this room I'm not sure I would get past the 360 logo...

Is there a cooling system you can buy for it?

gears 1/2 are great games, halo 3 was ok you might like the multiplayer, Viva pinata is freaking amazing might want to wait for #2 though, Fable 2 looks good, other then that thats about it. Banjo looks to be either really good or really bad so im waiting for reviews on this game. But yes all 3 halos work on the 360 there is a list at gamespot if you would like to see all the bc compatiable games.

"Here's the full BC list.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but there is a price drop happening early next month so you should wait for that before buying a 360."

Yeah get a core when that price cut comes in Sept. It is going to be $199.

Don't get a core, get a 60 at least. Core is stupid. They should never have had an option for a HDD-less box.

Also if you like flashing red lights, you could use the xbox as a christmas ordament.

Do not get a core, you'll have to pick up a hard drive eventually. Might as well save some cash by buying a premium model.

Yes! You can play all 3 halo's but you have to get either the Premium (what I have) or the Elite. The core is not backwards compatible plus you can only do so much on it. The premium is the best deal. Plus, the price has gone down. I think it is only 300 dollars at best buy. The premium includes Headset, Internet Cable (for XBL), Power cord, A/v / HDMI cablee, and one wireless controller.

Its a quality system. the fan is pretty loud though, but when your playing, its kinda drowned out by the sound and your overall focus on the game your playing. You gotta pay $50/yr for online play, but, imo, its not really that much of a setback. of course this is coming from a person who doesn't have to pay any bills and is free to spend every penny of his paycheck.
