i preordered mine 6 months ago and still havnt gotten one, what i dont understand is, if you were lucky enough to just walk into a store and saw them available why didnt you grab one asap? but anyway, yea it sucks. when i preordered the guy told me i would get it first shipment, its been like 6 i think. preordered 6 months ago and still nothing :(

I bought mine on 1/24 at Circuit City in Manhattan (Union Square area). That's in NYC. I just stayed outside the store for 1 hour before they opened and bought my premium (the one that has the remote included and the mgf date on it is 12/20) the two year protection plan and the hot rod blue face plate with no crowds what so ever (there was only 3 people including myself in the crowd waiting for the store to open that was buying the 360). Total came up to $541.83. I then went to my old job and bout Call of Duty 2, PDZ and PGR 3 and paid no tax on the games. I had a total bank roll of $725 on me for the 360.

Pre-ordered one in July, paid for it. One month after launch, I was walking by EB and saw he had some in stock. Walked about 100 feet to Gamestop, cancelled my pre-order and bought the unit at Eb on Dec. 23.

No offense but I could care less if they were holding it or not . All that matters is that it's in my possesion. The part that cracks me up is that there are people who reserved the system months in advance that are still waiting and All I had to do was wait only 2 months after launch and walk into Circuit City and buy a premium with the remote in the box with no lines nor crowds. That's why I never reserve anything.

Actually, I got sick and vomited when I got home. My boy was playing Halo 2 on it while I was asleep. I don't remember if I played it that night or not. Honestly, you'll probably spend more time on the dashboard exploring the features more than the games at 1st. I'm not really playing it as much as I thought I would. I guess like the saying goes the hunt is more fun than the prize. Also, I'm probably waiting on the heavy artillary (Gears of War, Prey, Elder Scrolls IV).

I didn't leave my house to get it until 820AM. The only reason I woke up at 530 was cause I couldn't sleep. I only waited for 1 hour outside the store for it to open. I would never camp out for anything unless it's a live saving organ for myself or a friend/relative.

I feel bad for you people!! I pre-ordered mine with 3 games 2 months before release date. I was moved up the list because I either people couldn't pay or wouldn't be able to pick it up release day. I drove to EB Games at 11:30 PM on the 21st. Showed my reciept to the "bouncer" at the door. Walked in, picked up my 360 at 11:44PM the 21st!!! So sweet to get it BEFORE "official" release when so many can't get one at all!! It was only 16 minutes but STILL!!!! Sorry if you guys had to camp and wait to get yours.....but ha ha :bootyshak :laugh:

The grapics are INSANE, great games (the ones I have at least), came with a limited time remote (way smaller than the ginormous one u buy at the store), wireless controllers are almost a standard, there is SO much more....oh yea and it is the ONLY HD, next-gen console out!!

Well until the real good games come out this year, that's how I feel There are just no real games out there that would warrant a purchase of the 360 at the moment (except for COD2 and PGR3) but that will change real soon. BTW Blindfold, check my gamercard. That should show you what I have.

I got mine the 17th or 18th, whenever Best Buy had that restock. Me and my mom woke up at 5AM to go wait in line but all the Best Buys within an hour of us had HUGE lines already.
So we went home and I went on the PC and checked out BestBuy.com. Low and behold they were restocked online. I had literally a 30 second window to type in all my mom's credit card information and just as I finished they sold out, we got lucky.

well, heres my 360 STORIE
after many long days of saving and selling all my other game consoles on EBAY, (n64-gamecube-supernintendo-gameboy-gba-gbasp-loads of games and some other stuff i forgot) i finnaly had enough mula. on launch day i went out to wal mart hoping to be like 5th in the line , i go there atlike 7pm and the line was maxxed out (14 people) so i returned to my car and lisin to my mom talk about how the people in the line were lieng, but i knew they werent. there were 2 HUGE FAT black girls (women, mebe 25 years old) and theyve been there since frikin 8 am. so i sat and acctually cried a bit in the car, than my mom begane to drive to bestbuy, i look out the window and see only 9 people in the line, so i stopped crieng GOT UP, GOT TUFF- and marched to that line! (after begging my mom and dad to let me miss school and stand outside in the freezing rain for 12 FU*KI*G hours) , and than i got to the line and every 1 congradulated me to be #10 . so i was happy for about 4 hoursish, in my comfy chair with my psp, playing others in twisted metal and nfsmw and midnight club...
the store had not closed yet , so i was just waiting for it to close so the guys could bust out the pizza and beer. wen i see 3 police cars (security) come up and say we cant stay there anylonger. so out of our 360 instincts we got up and said simply 1 word.................ok. CYK! lol, we rele said no and refused to move, we forced the manager to come out and speak to the security people ( more like the evil black lady whocouldent make it into the police force) . but the issue was that bestbuy didnot own the parking lot. (noghtingham did. - i live in baltimore MD, so dont ask) so 1 by 1 the best buy homies came outside and handed slips for the 360 so we can pick it up in the morning. so all i had to wait was just 4 hours, i was like ARE U KIDDING, THIS OWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and we were thanking the security and we all went up and shook her hand, and she was acting all proud and saying "just trying to do my job ;)" but rele we all were like "thx u fkn nig" NO OFFENSE, I AM NOT RACIST, I SWARE.. i love black people, u all own ;)..the that lady was being a total bizach. so, happily ever after i whent home . slept , got up and got my 360 ;) i was number 10 of 63. NOT! heres the deal, they told us to be there at 7 , so i did . wen i got there , there was a riot of people yelling things to the people, and only a lil bb people were outside and the doors were a little but open / / about that much , in real world time. so , my mom was like , HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLL NO! , so she opend the doors and was yelling for the manager and she was like " MY SON WAS OUT HERE FOR A REALLY LONG TIME! AND U ARE TELLING ME THAT HE CANT GET HIS XBOX? (i really was out for 4 hours, but she wanted him to feel bad i guess :) ) so he was all like .

well, heres my 360 STORIE
after many long days of saving and selling all my other game consoles on EBAY, (n64-gamecube-supernintendo-gameboy-gba-gbasp-loads of games and some other stuff i forgot) i finnaly had enough mula. on launch day i went out to wal mart hoping to be like 5th in the line , i go there atlike 7pm and the line was maxxed out (14 people) so i returned to my car and lisin to my mom talk about how the people in the line were lieng, but i knew they werent. there were 2 HUGE FAT black girls (women, mebe 25 years old) and theyve been there since frikin 8 am. so i sat and acctually cried a bit in the car, than my mom begane to drive to bestbuy, i look out the window and see only 9 people in the line, so i stopped crieng GOT UP, GOT TUFF- and marched to that line! (after begging my mom and dad to let me miss school and stand outside in the freezing rain for 12 FU*KI*G hours) , and than i got to the line and every 1 congradulated me to be #10 . so i was happy for about 4 hoursish, in my comfy chair with my psp, playing others in twisted metal and nfsmw and midnight club...
the store had not closed yet , so i was just waiting for it to close so the guys could bust out the pizza and beer. wen i see 3 police cars (security) come up and say we cant stay there anylonger. so out of our 360 instincts we got up and said simply 1 word.................ok. CYK! lol, we rele said no and refused to move, we forced the manager to come out and speak to the security people ( more like the evil black lady whocouldent make it into the police force) . but the issue was that bestbuy didnot own the parking lot. (noghtingham did. - i live in baltimore MD, so dont ask) so 1 by 1 the best buy homies came outside and handed slips for the 360 so we can pick it up in the morning. so all i had to wait was just 4 hours, i was like ARE U KIDDING, THIS OWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and we were thanking the security and we all went up and shook her hand, and she was acting all proud and saying "just trying to do my job ;)" but rele we all were like "thx u fkn nig" NO OFFENSE, I AM NOT RACIST, I SWARE.. i love black people, u all own ;)..the that lady was being a total bizach. so, happily ever after i whent home . slept , got up and got my 360 ;) i was number 10 of 63. NOT! heres the deal, they told us to be there at 7 , so i did . wen i got there , there was a riot of people yelling things to the people, and only a lil bb people were outside and the doors were a little but open / / about that much , in real world time. so , my mom was like , HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLL NO! , so she opend the doors and was yelling for the manager and she was like " MY SON WAS OUT HERE FOR A REALLY LONG TIME! AND U ARE TELLING ME THAT HE CANT GET HIS XBOX? (i really was out for 4 hours, but she wanted him to feel bad i guess :) ) so he was all like . "mam" and my mom was like "WAT" and he said "we are sold out" so my mom was like "NO" and he was like , "let me write it out for u" -he takes my #10 card that was suppose to reserve my 360- and writes "SOLD OUT" and my mom was like " no i want it now." and this lady comes up and says "mam, we have 1 core system left" and my mom is all like , "NO , I WANT THE PREMIUM!" and she was like "well this is all we got" so my mom said , "fine" and she got me a core with a hd with a wireless controller with a headset and a game. but i had 1 reserved from gamestop , so that came in the 12th of january and i gave my lil bro the core and i got the premium . so now im a proud owner of a xbox 360 premium. ;)

So if you had one reserved at gamestop, why did you go through that whole fiasco?

He wanted it earlier I guess. I never have or never will reserve any console or game from Gamestop or EB or anywhere. Especially after what happened with the whole 360 ordeal with them.

You might not make it.
Unless you are good. And you do not need to dictate to people their word usage. If he was offended, sobeit. Bare in mind that the world is full of people that you may never get along with. The higher ground would be to not let them get under your skin, because they take certain pleasure in doing it and undermine your character is doing so.
