They will have more in a few weeks. Microsoft is into making money not collectors items.

Give them a little time and the will get more out to the stores.

PS what is that thing supposed to be?

Bet ya by Xmas you will be able to walk into just about any store and pick one up.

And even if not. People act like they re never gonna make any more of em.

well, if it makes any of you feel better i havent even hooked mine up i've been so busy working

as a best buy employee all i can tell people who want them is to check the store every day a truck comes in (which is 4 days a week, mon tue thurs fri for my store) after 3-4pm to see if they came in.. we dont find out until the morning they're shipped to us if they're coming

you can get one, you just have to be persistant.. or crazy, like those who camped out last night

Shush Spade, XBOX is stupid. Is there a reason they release a new console every few years? It's certainly not to make money when the current system is fine as it is:rolleyes:

Unbelievable, $400 for that crap.

How is it any different then paying 1,000+ dollars for a computer every ? 2 years? Nirvana?
Oh yeah and I like online better seems smoother. And I do better with a control then a mouse.

Way I see it is,
Computer- Games Music, Word, Internet, Movies, Other stuff
Console- Games, Internet, Movies

You want just games, you get a console.
Games look better on tvs

Games are made for xbox's limits so you dont need to upgrade.
Somegames actually come out better then pc games. example sort of is
bf2 on pc
bf2 modern combat on xbox
i liked xbox version 1000 times better.

Never understood why pc gamers want console games, kinda redundant overkill.

I agree....

First person shooters do not belong on consoles...period.

I'm old school...consoles should be games and games only. If I want to watch a movie, I'll use the DVD player that I purchased specifically for that task.

Have you seen the specs on that thing? I don't care to own a console, but it's hardly crap.

LMAO, they already have major bugs in the system. PS3 will pummel it anyway. Gran Turismo is King of ALL CONSOLE GAMES.

This was deliberate. Microsoft planned on having the units sold out.

Because sometimes, I like to sit in the living room with a couple of friends, some whiskey, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour.

I need my mouse and keyboard to play FPS games. Controllers dont work for me for those games.
When MS or Sony makes a console that you can use with a wireless mouse/keyb for all the games then ill buy one.
