Can you play any of the Guitar Hero games, or the new Spiderman 3 on the XBox 360 Arcade.?

Just purchase XBox 360 Arcade product number 348661 for my 9 year old son online. Don't really know much about this system. The unit I've purchase comes with everything, including 5 arcade games. He also wants some of the newest games, Guitar Hero, Spiderman 3, and Lost Planet (not sure if this ones old or new )He also wants to be able to rent older games. Will he be able to play the games previously listed on the system I've purchased? Please help, Santa's coming very soon !Can you play any of the Guitar Hero games, or the new Spiderman 3 on the XBox 360 Arcade.?
You can play any game for the Xbox 360 on an Arcade console. The only difference is you don't have a hard drive, so online play and backwards compatibility is off limits to you.Can you play any of the Guitar Hero games, or the new Spiderman 3 on the XBox 360 Arcade.?
Yes, your son is still able to play any video game he wants. The Xbox 360 Arcade just consists of the old games the Atari had one they first came out. He is still able to play any of his xbox 360 games as he likes. Now the 3 games he wants are slightly old about 6 months to a year but there still very fun games to play especially at his age. But all around yes his game will not be ruined at all just put the 360 somewhere it can ventilate air because the 360 warms up very quick and after awhile it was just shut off and you have to receive a refurbished one.
