I was gonna try and get one and sell it on to the muppets that will pay loads, but that aint gonna happen lol.

wonder how many "just got my 360" threads will be popping up tomorrow

 

[dk]

[Lee]

I'll stop pretending it's mine now.:dapprove:

That's one of the lads at work, he's just emailed me the pic and I replied with a 4 letter word starting with c and ending with t.

He's even purchased a new 42" Hidef TV to go with it. He is the uber geek.

Spending nearly 2k to play games the day it comes out is just a wee bit sad!

The guy has less life than any other person I know, and working in the games industry I know a lot of people with lots of money and no lives!

[Dansta]

do the expensive ones come with wireless controllers?

 

[Lee]

My NFSMW has just arrived. Great, I can look at the box all day.

Oh well, I'll be too pissed most the weekend to care.

And once again MS have stopped the Dev Kits from playing retail games so I can't even go check it out. b******s.

 

[MikeC]

ok, can we get this newhere now without preordering? matey at work wants one now...

 

[MikeC]

Good luck!

Gamestation reckon they are sold out until march. Game are offering bundles only from between £400 - £1k. Try Woolies/WHSmiths and some of the big supermarket chains if your extremely lucky

I got mine this morning, PC world 8:30, first in the queue.

Xbox360 Core pack
HDD
Wireless Controller
Headset
Wireless Game adapter
Project Gotham Racing
Perfect Dark Zero
Call of Duty 2

Its easy if you time it right and go to the right location.

 

[FlamingMonkey]

^^ Yeah plenty of places have the core pack, my local comet have 17 in and only 3 pre orders, its the premiums that are think on the ground

Must of cost you a pretty penny Dave that lot?

 

[Turkish]

ive rung everywhere local and everyone without exception has preorder units only. From the sounds of it you'll be lucky to get one this side of xmas now. You'd have thought microsoft would have known better than to undersupply so heavily.

Call of duty is AWSOME. Been playing it all week at work

It's easy if you want the core pack. Most high street sellers weren't taking pre orders on those.

The factory is alleged to be churning out 3 units a second!! They are trying to meet demand.

 

[MikeC]

Anyone see the article on this last night on News at Ten? Basically stating that Microsoft want to beat Sony to become number 1 in the market, and that they could probably do so quite easily if they didnt undersupply.

 

[dk]

it was quite expensive but mainly because the games are bloody stupid money!

I worked it out that buying it all separately didn't cost me anymore than about £20 more than if i had bought the premium pack so not too bad really.

Comet let me down on my premium pack pre-order, they are saying between now and christmas!!!!

so i guess when i get it i will just sell it to fund the extra cost of buying this lot separately.

Wonder how many kids are going to be pissed off come Xmas Day when mummy and daddy have bought them the shitty version?

[MikeC]

I'd be happy with the core pack tbh. You can buy the bits afterwards as and when, no biggie!

[Dansta]
