Anyone lucky enough to get a xbox 360?
Does anyone want one?

Have you check eBay and see how much they are going for? It's unbelievable. People are getting atleast double what the retail price is for them. We are being told here that we won't be getting anymore in until March or April. Has anyone else heard that?

My store isn't going to have any available, other than reserves, until at least February.

Initially we were promised all our reserves on launch day, then we were promised 50 on launch day, and another 50 every week after... then that got cut down to 20 a week... now we haven't gotten any at all since the launch day.

Yay for Microsoft! \:D/

And personally the only reason I'd want one now is to sell it on Ebay...

I saw people waiting in line for some...but I have other things I'd rather buy. The X2 is good enough for me.

What's the big deal with the Xbox 360?! I mean I look at the way everyone grabs for them, and am disgusted! It's just a game console! We didn't get our PS2 till it went down to $99.99. People can just wait a while, I mean seriously... READ A BOOK!

Well I dont understand like all the twelve year old kids with their moms waiting out at 2 AM to get them an Xbox 360, but some of us are what you would call hardcore gamers. I put a reserve on mine back when they were first taking them. Its annoying that kids who cant get past a first level of a game alway get whatever they want...but for those who wait till Christmas knowing thats basically all theyre getting or those who work hard and save money for a game system I say they should get one...and books dude...like...dude all the good books have been read by now. >_>
