Yes, almost exactly the same.

Except now they give you 5 arcade games and a 256 MB mem card.

Feeding Frenzy
Luxor 2
Boom Boom Rocket
Pac-Man Championship Edition
Uno

are the 5 games wit comes with.

But I recommend it for casual gamers cuz it doesnt come with headset and hard drive.

Do Xbox's now come with all the cables to set it up for Xbox live or do you need to buy them seperatly?

Also which ones easier to set up Wireless or Wired? I have a wireless router that i use for my Wii.

Wired is easier and you only need one cable, the ethernet cable.(steelers suck). Didn't you just get an xbox 360.

Wait, a friend of mine told me that in certain games (such as Halo 3) if you do good online, you'll get microsoft points. Is that true?

Also, is Frontlines: Fuel of War worth it for a die-hard FPS fan?

You can get microsoft points by entering and winning certain competitions on halo 3. You can achieve gamerscore points on halo 3 by playing online.

Yeah I would say get frontlines if you love FPS's.

Thanks for the help. I'm probably gonna get 360 since I'm getting like $300 for my birthday...

EDIT: Nevermind, my mom "forbids" it. She says i don't need another gaming system (even though I almost NEVER play my PS2 anymore, leaving me with my Wii), and I don't have enough money, which I do.

No you get achievement points.

If you have an OK computer get Battlefield 2 its like Frontlines: Fuel of War
but better. BF2 has 64 players and 32 giant maps. Frontlines: Fuel of War doesnt have splitscreen so I treat it like a computer game . If any thing get Gears of War. That's some hardcore stuff
