anybody here anything about the release date yet. Its funny i paid for something that i have no idea when ill get it. there is also speculation that there will not be enough for the xmas rush, im thinking about buying a few and reselling on ebay, i did that with a 2 slim ps2 last year and made 100 bucks on each via ebay. i know its slimeballish but whatever i had a merry x-mas. the funny thing was how thankful people were for overpaying me for them. i couldnt figure it out
Where did you order yours from? eB Games isn't charging us until they ship the unit. Bestbuy has already pre-sold their 1st 3 shipments and considering the release is due for mid Nov I think there is a *very* good chance there won't be an instore unit until well after xmas.

I've thought about buying a few and bouncing them off ebay myself, I will def put this unit on ebay if it arrives a week early like our original xbox did from eB Games. (they are always sending crap out early, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!)

It's not the politicians ALONE phugking it up. The DAMN lawyers are the ones who dream up those RIDICULOUS defenses... "The poor kid was influenced by RAP music and violent VIDEO GAMES to do those heinous things to his pet hamster. It's not his fault. We're gonna sue his father, too, for teh tiny d!<& he inherited, and the doctor who operated on him to remove the hamster from his hiney!!! Society must PAY for what THEY'VE done to this poor kid." Take teh kid out back and WHUP HIS @$$, I say. Do it EARLY and OFTEN!!!

Seriously, parents NEmore expect the schools to raise their kids, and THAT'S not what schools are for... Oh schitt!!! I just realized Im standing up here on my soapbox, preachin'. Sorry. You may go back to surfin for **** now

Well said! I don't have kids myself yet but have grown up with lots of babies from other family members, all of which are good decent kids (most of the time anyway! heh) but they get into trouble if THEY do something bad noone else gets blamed.

in the US inparticular the lawsuit issue holds true. Back in australia its not such a big deal (or wasnt when i left 4 years ago) because its harder to get the bogus lawsuits into court letalone win them for that huge payday

hey dan do you have a hdtv? if not i think it would be smarter to hold off on the 360 until you get one and hopefully the rediculous prices would have gone down some. It really isnt offering any games that the old box dosent have. but if your like me and have to get the newest thing as soon as it comes out i totally understand.
