And let me guess, the overpriced hard drives will still remain the same ridiculously high price?

I'm pretty sure they confirmed, or at least rumored a price cut for hard drives a while ago, including a sort of xbox live bundle for the 60 gig.
Any way, this is great news! 199$ for the arcade sounds like a pretty good price. Remember that analyst stating the 360 needed a real price drop? Well here it is.

I dont know how they can justify the prices of the Hard drives. I seen their supposed price cuts for the hard drives and it is a joke. If they want people to really download all the movies and crap, then they better make these hard drives a lot more reasonable, because right now it is a straight up rip off.

Now if they would release IPTV for it then I could get a second for the other tube.

Uhh over here in Canada an Xbox arcade already costs 199, pros, 299, etc., so does that mean we will get even MORE price drops? That would be awesome :P

I love the new pricing if this is to be 100% locked and confirmed, BUT I still advocate the entire scrapping of the Arcade SKU. Who is buying these things? It only hampers development teams for allowing larger games to cache to the HD.

Actually, I think the $199 Arcade 360 as one of it's main advantages this holiday season.
With the Wii still facing shortages, what console are people going to buy? A $399 80GB PS3? If they would spend that much money, than why not get an ELITE that's also $399, 120GB HDD, HDMI Cable, HD Cable, Ethernet Cable, etc.
It's the cheapest priced system out there, that's what people want.

Who cares? Will there be a HARD DRIVE price drop, so I can get the 120gig for my 360?

Well if its a hoax. It's an expensive hoax, because thats a screen running on a mainframe computer. Which I highly doubt your average person has, unless that person happens to own a major corporation.
I know Kohl's uses mainframe applications like that for a lot of their stuff. I don't know if Kohl's sells Xbox 360's

Expensive hoax? Anyone can mock up a mainframe screen in a terminal window.

I don't think the Arcade SKU should ever get scrapped. Speaking as an early adopting gamer and media center fan that bought premium 360 and have recently taken the 120gb plunge (sure it was expensive but if you look around you can find some pretty good deals), the prospect of this low price SKU becoming a cheap ass media center extender as well as a gaming machine to boot for the parents or kids bedroom makes this a possitively droolworthy option for people like me. Just lock and load the old 20gb drive (that's currently a paperweight) onto the newly bought Arcade system and your ready to rock. Sure I would love too go and buy an Elite but that's just a little hard justifying spending that much and that would still result in me having a spare 20gb drive.

Wow, I wish I was near where ever you are! I've been wanting to buy one this whole week so I'll have something to do before school starts, but I might as well wait now. The screenshot looks pretty real.

Well lets see 200.00 360 or impossible to find Wii? Well As a Wii owner, 20 gig 360 owner and 40 gig PS3 owner like one of the gents said a HDD drop on the 120gb drive would be nice, at least the PS3 lets me buy a drive from New Egg.
lotta Arcades getting bought this holiday season

wait, if the arcade is $199 and the elite is $399.
and the 120 gb hard drive is $179.
Someone at MS can't do math.

that's still $20 less than an elite. the elite also has an hdmi port which the arcade doesn't have (i don't believe.)
it's mostly for people that don't want to spend all that money to play 360 games.
so i think someone at microsoft has done their math correctly.
