did you read the part where it said "the retail employee estimates?"

Some guy who works behind an EB counter is going to know the entire US 360 shipment for the 22nd?  You can\'t seriously consider that.

Hold up, did someone say my Xbox won\'t be high-def? Or are we just talking a particular DVD format...

come on now, haven\'t been reading about the countless people that are having thier pre-orders ganked due to shortage?  retail stores are getting like 20 units each.

EB employee > microsoft shareholder booklet that ended up in the trash that night.

care to comment on the 10 million in the first year sales?
(not holding my breath)

a revised xbox 360 will be coming out down the road with a HD-DVD drive, Eik.
maybe that\'s how they expect to sell 10 million, but making everyone have to re-buy one

I don\'t have to sugarcoat anything.  There are conflicting reports going around everywhere and FACT is that the only numbers coming from Microsoft is what I provided you with.  I won\'t deny the shortage because it\'s just that, a shortage.  It\'s not the best situation to be in but it\'s certainly not an arguement to say the 360 is doomed or anything of that nature.  Sony pulled through just fine with the PS2.  If the PS2 launch is any indication of what a shortage can do then we\'ll see the Xbox 360 as a hot item and people snatching them up as they come in.  Will that happen?  I can\'t say for sure, but it\'s certainly a possibility.

I really can\'t believe you would take some EB drone\'s guesstimate as supporting evidence.  Even worse is that you\'re hanging on to it.  You\'re as much an ass as ever, and you make this place a dump.  I don\'t know why I came back today but you\'ve provided me enough reason to just call it quits again.  You\'re an ass, and a really stupid one to boot.

Damn, let\'s not get too personal. Isn\'t everyone entitled to their own opinion? weather that opinion is right or wrong.
And imho this place is not a dump, it\'s pretty fun most times.
What would we do without mm?

My local Gamestop and EB Games are calling people and telling them they\'ll have to wait a week or 2 before they\'ll be able to fill there orders due to lack of units being shipped.

I pre-ordered on 5/18/2005 and I\'m the last person on one of the lists.


MS had major troubles getting out the final development kits, I think it is obvious there is going to be a major shortage. So stock up on XBOX 360\'s the meatheads on ebay will help ya offset the cost of your own, and then some

When I bought Kameo the guy looked at my most recent presell receipt and said "You know you might not get your system for another couple months, right?"

And I said, "What?! I can get a refund on launch day then, right?" (I found out no one shops at Babbages on launch day, I left a line outside Toys R Us to walk into Babbages and grab a GameCube on day one.)

Then he realized he was looking at the wrong receipt and said I\'d get one on the first day.

So I called him a fag and spit on the guy in line behind me.

True story.
