I'm finally 100% sure what I'm gonna do because my Walmart finally has an answer, and 20 Xboxes... Im just gonna go there around 7 and bring my iPAQ and play some games and hang out until I get my Xbox at 12:01ish and go home and pull an all nighter with some penguin peppermint help and have a hell day at school thinkin about Halo and oddworld all day...Although I still dont know if I want to buy a game or save it for The Simpsons Road Rage...I always LOVED crazy taxi!

Why go to school?

Play hooky and stay home and play the BOX all day.

Well when I called the Wal-Mart earlier today, they just said "We dont know exactly what we will do because our distric manager hasnt told us the procedure yet" Which I didnt really think was true, because the Xbox is basically a day and a minute away, so they better get their act together pretty **** fast. But then I called them recently and they said that they would have 20 on a first come first serve basis. I think that by 7, they will still be at least half that amount left. I dont see many people buying it except hardcore gamers. Althouth the more I think about it, it seems that I should come in earlier like at 6, mostly because this is basically the only wal-mart in the region and it is in a good neighborhood, so the punk rich kids might buy all the XBoxes...Still I think as long as I get there before 7:30 I should be fine. But another thing I was wondering...should I buy my games before I get my Xbox? I dont want to take too long and lose my spot, but then again I dont want to be near the end of the line and find out when Its my turn at the register that Halo is out of stock.

*edit- well the real reason that I dont want to buy Games early is because I dont think I can stand to have Halo in my hands, and an xbox on the otherside of the wall and I cant have it until another 5 hours...

Get your Xbox first.

There are Tons of Halo's etc....

I have seen a huge stock of games, so go for the console then worry about the games.

I think either way you will be fine, there are plenty to go around.
But it does sound like the earlier you get there the better off you will be.

I found out that gamestop will have 20 or more units at luanch so I'll show up at 4 in the morning to get mine. I just picked up a controller and Halo today. They didn't have a DVD kit so I'll pick that up tommorow.

Brute Force has been in development for some time now, but Microsoft didn’t want it to be unveiled before the European X01 event. Brute Force is a futuristic squad based tactical shooter. Brute Force looks a lot like Halo in many factors. Both games are tactical shooters in their purest form, based in futuristic enviroments and each of them showcases some of the best graphics that ever graced a console. The big difference however, is that Brute Force is a squad based shooter. This means that you won’t succeed if you operate on your own, you will need to work together to complete your missions. Here is yet another pic!!!

I think the only word to explain how good the xbox really is, is not really a word but a blank stair on your face as your amazed by the incrediable graphics and gameplay.

So just the blank stair of AWE!!!!
