here in the n.y.c. metro area the stores are forcing 'bundles'...i.e. the system/games/accessories for a set price...seems to range for $400.00 up to $1000.00 depending on the contents. i remember that when i first pre-booked the unit we were informed that there "would be units stacked to the ceiling" and no bundles were in the offing....how times have changed...
i would like to know:
where are you located and what the costs are?
any choices as to games?

I got mine at comp usa in Michigan. You get two first party x-box games, one third party x-box game, and two accessories. You put a $15 deposite on the x-box and a $5 deposite on everthing else. This bundle costs $519.99 but I get $50 off when I bring in my receipt and my pre-order form when I pick it on the 15th. I think its one of the better deals.

Glad I planned ahead. After the PS2 crap last October, I wanted to make sure I could get an XBOX. I reserved mine at Babbages last November. $10. The store I shop at only has 25 reservations. Babbages cut theirs off pretty quick to ensure that they could get everyones system quickly. (they had a 2 month wait for reserved PS2's) I am going to be one of 25 other happy people on the 15th!!!
