It's got to be one or the other. Are you waiting in line for the Midnight launch of Xbox360, or is your console already reserved? If so where, and when are you picking it up? And if your getting in line, what time to you honestly plan to camp out?

Me, im going to Best Buy in Pentagon City, VA at around 8-9pm on da 21st to meet my boy in line. He aint gettin one, but he's spending da night at my crib to catch dat first DOA4 beatdown!! :hardcore:
D@mn, four hours in line is pretty long, even killing it with friends. Atleast im off on dat Tuesday. :cool:

Wat about you all?

I didnt vote...none of the above was not a chioce. I am waiting untill after the new year..probably around the first price drop for the COMPLETE bundle.

Definently going at midnight just incase blockbuster ****ed and oversold their preorders, but i doubt it.

If they even hope for it.. they did for Halo 2 so I don' see why not.

I gotta check out PD0 before actually doing it. If the game kicks ass, I'll be the first one in line like I was for the first XBox. Fred Meyer is where I'm going...they don't take pre-orders...first come first serve :D

Hmm... My parents aren't crazy enough to let me be crazy enough to camp out and wait..

Since my dad is buying the 360 for me, he's basiccly think I'll be lucky when I get it... :(

Meh. 50/50 win/lose :confused:

Considering my parents won't buy it for Christmas because they consider video games a waste of money. It looks like I'm going to have to save up some money. It doesn't help I owe my parents $80 either. Most likely early next year, I'll be picking one up.

Darn. That sucks man. But i'm ure when we buy our 360's, we'll be kicking ourselves in our asses b/c the HDD messed up or something like that. You'll always get something better if you wait. That's just how it is.

I'm really not 100% sold to the 360 though... I just cant understand how much better than Xbox it can be only using ONE core... :bang:

I won't be camping out, I am just going to go to target or kmart when they open, and if I don't get one then I will just wait until they come back in

Option 2! Now I'm thinking all EB games do this right? Cause EB is like an hour's drive away and I don't want to go in there that night unless I know I'm going to get it that night... Then again, they call and let you know when it'll be available right?

They should contact you, if it is a stand-alone store (not in a mall) then there is a higher chance that they will open at midnight

Lots of people probably wont get it b/c of the price... I'm sure all of this Pre-order crap... is overated..

We had thousands of Halo 2 games at my Futureshop and BestBuy... they aren't gonna run out.

I already have my xbox360 preorder. Now I just hope I get it while I am away at my cuz house that I have it coming too. I think i will be there for about a week from November 24 - December 1 if I don't have it come there by than i will die and I would have to get him to ship it back to bermuda for me which might take another week or two.

EB called to get an idea of the number of doofs that were going to want to pick it up at 12am on the 22nd. I told the guy that I would not mind doing that. I just feel bad for the poor bastards that have to go in and service all us freaks.

Pre-Ordered, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do. If I'm bored and not tired i may take the trip over to GS.

Most likely I'll go the next morning on my way to work.

I'm still undecided if I'm taking the day off on Tuesday. If I am, I'll pick it up asap, though I don't think Future Shop is going to be open at midnight for that (they only took 10 preorders). If I decide to work, then i'll probably pick it up during lunch.

Just got the call today my EB Games store called me and said they got shorted on units and will not be able to fill all the pre orders and I will most likely get it by xmass they will be getting a few every week. I per ordered and prepaid it so I'm going to sleep and dream about what it would be like to get it on release day.

YO greg, im originally from Bragg Hill VA homie!! Dats my hometown. I grew up around there when it was only tree's over at Central Park. I remember when it was only a Movie Theater and dat ToysRus across da street from it.
Does anyone still go to Spotsylvania Mall anymore? They still got Hechts, so I would think so. I used to work in dat lame arcades (Aladdins Castle) back in da dayz homie.


ok, my mom is driving me to best buy at 5:30am, it opens at 6:00am... after we get it, shes driving me to school -.-, the next day we have to drive to memphis for a week of thanksgiving... so i wont be playing live for a while

I went to da BestBuy I expect to cop mines at yesterday when I copped The Get Rich Or Die Tryin Soundtrack, and dem suckaz said they was doing da 5or6am bullshiii. Dat sux, but then again, might be cool, cause how many nerds gonna be able to borrow there mommies car at dat time in da mow-nin? Or am I takin dem lightly? :huh: :confused: :huh:

It's all a gimmick, just like dat story Gamespot posted last week. MS is trying to make it as if dis joint is really gonna be more scarse than it really should be.
bastaards prolly got 10 mill in a warehouse in Milwakee or sum shiii collecting dust. :rolleyes:
