Basically what it comes down to... The only thing you get extra with ELITE, is the HD cable, and the 120GB hard drive (massive) and the black console. If you DON'T have an original 360 yet, you may aswell go...
Things to look for: *don't buy plasma for gaming!!!!* -32-42" -LCD -HDTV -1080p.... 720p is still good though! -SAMSUNG has some good models to flatter the 360's graphics -SONY is good aswell
