So, is anyone getting a Xbox 360 tonight?

11-21-2005, 03:33 PM

Assuming EB didn't screw up my pre-order, I should be getting one shortly after midnight EST.

Anyone else getting one, and if so with what games?

Link2000 · 11-22-2005, 08:53 AM

Went out to Walmart this morning, and was out of luck. They ran out of premium systems right away, and I'm not going to buy a core. So we go to another store. I was third in line, but they only had 2 premiums. So now I'm waiting for second shipment at EB Games (I preordered).

11-22-2005, 02:27 PM

Sorry to hear that. Look me up when you get one (Tritoch obviously).

I've written a brief account of my experience last night.

I won't be getting one until the price drops to something affordable. $400 is freaking ridiculous.

Link2000 · 11-23-2005, 04:32 PM

They're selling out, so the pice is obviously right.

Buy the 300 dollar one if you want a standard price of a new console.

Some guy I know who works electronics at Walmart claimed that the Microsoft rep told him that new 360s would be coming in either tomorow or friday. I hope it's for real.

Nick · 11-24-2005, 02:15 AM

Going from what I've read on the 'net and from a few people I've talked to (about 5 or 6) who work in retail, there are a few stores that are going to "find" some 360s on Black Friday.

11-26-2005, 01:32 PM

I've got my first review up now, of Gun. Not really what I'd consider "next gen", but still a pretty fun game.

Link2000 · 11-26-2005, 03:05 PM

I got to try out Perfect Dark 0 at a friends house last night, and it seemed pretty sweet, even if the graphics weren't really screaming next-gen. OTOH, Condemmed was beautiful.

11-28-2005, 07:52 PM

I'm playing Ridge Racer 6 now and it definitely looks like more of a next-generation game, even though it's still the same old gameplay. I'm looking forward to the Revolution's controller more and more every day, although to be fair I haven't really dived into the top games like Call of Duty 2.

Star Road · 11-30-2005, 03:54 PM

i don't have enough money to buy a 360. damn idiots jacked up the price a crapload. consoles used to me like $150 at most new. now they brought it up to $400. it sucks cuz i don't have a lot of money. i barley got an xbox and that was only for 100 bucks from my friend. so how the hell am i gonna be able to expirience better gaming?

Link2000 · 11-30-2005, 04:31 PM

It's the same price that all consoles are when they're new.

Yami Yoshi · 04-29-2006, 07:14 PM

Oblivion makes it tempting.

I'll probably wait and see how this TOO HUMAN game turns out, though.
