List of Xbox 360 retail configurations
The Xbox 360 video game console has appeared in various retail configurations during its life-cycle. At its launch, the Xbox 360 was available in two retail configurations: the morning "Xbox 360" package (unofficially known as the 20 GB Pro or Premium), priced at US$399.99 or £279.99, and the "Xbox 360 Core," priced at US$299.99 and £209.99. The original shipment of Xbox 360s included a cut-down version of the Media Remote as a promotion. The Elite package was launched later at a retail price of US$479.99. The "Xbox 360 Core" was replaced by the "Xbox 360 Arcade" in October 2007[1] and a 60 GB version of the Xbox 360 Pro was released on August 1, 2008. The Pro package was discontinued and marked down to US$249.99 on August 28, 2009 to be sold until stock ran out, while the Elite was also marked down in price to US$299.99.[2] In June 2010, Microsoft announced a new, redesigned model and the discontinuation of the Elite and Arcade models.[3]

The Xbox 360[4] (also known as Pro or Premium and packaged as simply Xbox 360 with the subheading "Go Pro") included all the features of the Xbox 360 Core (with the exception of the disc tray which is silver instead of white) and included a hybrid composite/component cable with optional optical out instead of the composite A/V cable included with the Core. This model also included a detachable hard disk drive (initially 20 GB, while later models had 60 GB) to store downloaded content, provide compatibility with original Xbox games, and store game data. The included hard drive came with game demos, video clips and a free Live Arcade game, Hexic HD. In July 2007, this version of the Xbox 360 began appearing with the Zephyr motherboard (the motherboard used in the Elite) which features an HDMI output and an improved GPU heatsink. Although this model did include an HDMI output,[5][6] it did not come with an HDMI cable.[citation needed] Starting at the end of September 2007, the newest systems were shipped with the new "Falcon" motherboard. This motherboard includes the new 65 nm CPUs, making them quieter and cooler than the older systems.[7] On August 1, 2008, the 20 GB version was discontinued and was replaced by a 60 GB HDD model at the same price. Holiday 2007 consoles were bundled with Forza Motorsport 2 and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.[8] Holiday 2008 consoles were bundled with Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures and Kung Fu Panda.[9] Price cuts that took effect on September 4, 2008 reduced the price from $349 to $299.[10] The Xbox 360 configuration, following its discontinuation, retailed for $250 until stocks were exhausted.
Xbox 360 Core
The Xbox 360 Core was an entry level Xbox 360 which was later replaced with the "Arcade". Although available at launch in other regions, it was not available in Japan until November 2, 2006.

Technically designated the Xbox 360 S,[27] commonly known as the Xbox 360 Slim,[28] and marketed simply as the Xbox 360;[29] these Xbox 360 consoles are based on a redesign of the Xbox 360 hardware which was officially announced on June 14, 2010 during a press briefing prior to that year's E3. It was speculated that a complete redesign of the Xbox 360 hardware was being produced after pictures of a possible new motherboard design surfaced on March 17, 2010.[30] Ads later surfaced on June 13, 2010 showing a slimmer Xbox 360 design, which was expected to include a 250 GB hard drive and integrated Wi-Fi functionality.[31]
The console's casing is revised in comparison to the previous models, with a glossy black finish and capacitive power and eject buttons. Sounds are played when the power is turned on or off and when the disc tray is opened or closed.
The motherboard has an integrated 2.4 GHz

The first Xbox 360 S
A second SKU which included 4 GB of internal flash storage and had a matte black casing (much like the Xbox 360 Elite)[39] was released on August 3, 2010 in the US[39] and August 20, 2010 in Europe.[40] It replaced the Xbox 360 Arcade and is priced at US$199.99, £149.99 or €199.99.[3][39][40][41][42] Although this model has onboard storage, Xbox Product Director Aaron Greenberg confirmed that it does have a drive bay which Microsoft has "the opportunity to use in the future".[39] On August 20, 2010, Microsoft announced a 250 GB stand-alone hard drive for use with Xbox 360 S models priced at US$129.99.[43]
In August 2011, Microsoft announced they would be streamlining their models by discontinuing the glossy finish and that future 250 GB consoles would use the matte finish found on 4 GB models.[44][45]
Xbox 360 E
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Microsoft-Xbox-360-E-wController.jpg/170px-Microsoft-Xbox-360-E-wController.jpg)
At Microsoft's E3 press conference on June 10, 2013, another hardware revision of the Xbox 360 known as Xbox 360 E was unveiled for immediate availability. It is a revision of the S model with a new Xbox One-inspired casing, carrying a more rectangular appearance and a two-tone color scheme. It has one fewer USB port and no S/PDIF, YPbPr component or S-video connections. Its internal hardware is otherwise similar to the S model.[46] SKUs and pricing for the new model are identical to those of the previous model.[47][48]

- To promote The Simpsons Movie, Microsoft created a specially designed, yellow Xbox 360 Pro console with The Simpsons Movie based artwork.[67] The configuration was based on the Xbox 360 package of the time, the only difference being the color scheme of the Xbox 360 console and wireless controller. The consoles were to be given out to winners of drawings taking place between July 18, 2007 and July 27, 2007, in which a name was randomly drawn each day in the "10 Days and 10 Chances to Win" sweepstakes.[68] 100 consoles were produced in total.[69]

Moore said that Microsoft is currently working on a second new Xbox 360, which will be offered at the arcade's price point of $200. He declined to say what functionalities the cheaper model would or would not have. [...] One likely scenario is the cheaper model will essentially be a slim arcade with no Wi-Fi capabilities or a hard drive. [...] Moore also said that going forward, all future models of the Xbox 360 would not have names and would only be designated by their memory capacity.
