I need a new one too...With a HDMI output for my new tv argh -_-
I'll probably just buy an arcade version if it has a HDMI output for 200 euro's and use my old hdd lolz...
If anyone here has a Xbox 360 with HDMI slot can he/she post a pic of the back with the slot? Cuz it showed on xbox.com where it is but on bol.com it said the arcade had a HDMI output but it didn't show on the pics >.<

Thanks RuYi, guess those on bol.com were old pics or something then. But yeah, I gotta check if it has one of those before I buy it
Maybe I'll send a mail to MS and see if I can fix a deal by trading in my old one

I wouldn't get one from Craigslist.
Not unless you can go to the guy's place in person and make sure the thing works.

Don't they all have HDMI now? I got mine almost a year and a half ago, it was a standard with 20 GB HDD.
But of course mine is extra special because mine is just special like that.

Pro and Elite has always had HDMI... Originally arcade didn't, and I never heard anything about that changing.

Woa 200 euros for arcade version thats a lot more expensive the NA price.
But tbh I would either buy a used one from GameStop/Ebgames or just buy a name one, cause if you buy it from someone else it may get red RROD or have a problem you can't fix and you won't have any warranty.

No, I mean Pro. I've worked in electronics longer than the xbox has even been out. Here, the Pro was never called "premium."

You can try your luck with an ebay refurb. Mine is a 20gb with hdmi and has worked great(
Put a talismoon fan in it)
My friend got an arcade version with no hard drive(he had one) and no hdmi, it red ring'ed in 2 days. The company sent him a newer one with hdmi that has worked great since.

The first gen pro 360 consoles with 20 gb had no HDMI port which I had one when I bought on release, then the Elite came out which was the first one to have one, then the 2nd & 3rd gen had a hdmi port but since the pro consoles are gone i think the arcade has an HDMI port too lol
