PS: I already have a ps3 and im not interested in the wii so please dont say any of those as an answer.

There's no point in getting an Xbox 360 premium as they're expected to be replaced completely with the specs and price of the 360 Elite by late summer or fall according to this article. Your choices are simple, either buy the limited release 360 Elite, or wait until it replaces the premiums and buy it as 360 premium. Either way, it'll be the same price and the same specs.
I personally think there's no reason to go for the Xbox hype if you've already got an awesome PS3 :) Proud owner myself.

Is the elite the new one that will be releasing sometime in April? If so, I'd say go for that one. It's got a 200 GB hard drive and HDMI. As for the HD-DVD, none of them come with it right out of the box. You have to buy the add-on drive for another $200, but if you've already got a PS3, then you probably don't need it, from the look of things, I think blu-ray is going to win out over hd-dvd

in case you intend on paying for a great form of video games, you should get the Xbox 360 Elite by using fact it has a 120GB problematiccontinual. additionally, you seem a great fanatic of HDTV. The Xbox 360 Elite has an HDMI port that has 1080P exhibit that's the suitable exhibit funds ought to purchase. The Xbox 360 top type purely features a 20GB problematiccontinual and no HDMI, besides the undeniable fact that it does value much less. in case you have the money to spend, get the Elite version. it is likewise cooler! wish that facilitates.

just ask yourself if you need the extra hard drive space (120 GB not 200) and the HDMI port. Does your tv support 1080p resolution? If not, the HDMI port is not necessary. everything else (except the case color) is the same. Wifi is included in both units and in my opinion, should be your last resort for connectivity. It is not faster than cable modems; it is not even faster than Ethernet connections. Wifi sucks, run a cable to the rear of the unit for best online results.

go for Premium, as elite will not have "in-built HD-DVD player, or WiFi" either....HD-DVD's are really catching up very fast, and within few months time we can expect HD-DVD to be more common. And WiFi speak for itself, WiFi is always better than cable things.......enjoy
