you better be at your local video game store when they open and start to pre-order again. software etc quit pre-ordering b/c they got so many and here is what they told us, "we will only accept so many pre-orders b/c MS doesnt want to make the fans mad by not being able to give consoles to all the people who pre-ordered", that was back in like febuary though

i can not find any places in boston that will take preoders. babages is only taking oders for the second shipment. which is two to three weeks after the launch. I put my email in at EB and compusa. hopefully I can get one on the first day.

if anyone knows some other place I can preorder please let me know.

thanks

everything I have heard from EB and GameStop is the same thing, not taking pre-orders for xbox until Microsoft gives the green light and tells them how many units they can get. GameStop did tell me that they are taking orders for GameCube if I was interested, then I laughed and then they did too. :)

thats funny EB in Boston told me the same thing. "we do not know how many xboxs we will get until the fall so we can not take pre orders". then he asked me if I wanted to put my name in for the gamecube!?

hmmmmmmm.... sounds like a conspiracy .

I just recently came up with a new plan:

I'm going to Best Buy with a few of my friends. I'll bring along my paintball gun and when everyone runs in for the XBox, I'll send my friends in after them and I'll start picking people off one by one.

:D
