Didn't Get a 360?

**pitt4ever** · 12-05-2005

Like many, I didn't get an XBOX 360 on November 22. And since GameStop sucks, I probably wouldn't get my pre-order from them before Christmas. So wasn't I delighted to see this story from 1UP.com. It looks like Best Buy if giving unhappy gamers a second chance to get a 360 right before Christmas. I guess I know who my favorite electronics store is!

I am not waiting for my pre-order to finally be available at Gamestop, got mine yesterday on ebay and it should be here next week. When my preorder is ready I will sell it to a friend of mine who didn't preorder one.

YOU suck. Who did you steal them from?

no the december 18th shipment isnt a secret... Where I work thats what we have been telling people... December 18th... be there!

So, you probably know how I'm 40th on GameStop's pre-order list, because, well, they suck. So to my dismay, when I walk in there today and ask about my pre-order spot, they told me they just got a shipment of 2 360s. Obviously they aren't getting 360s every day, so I said to myself, screwdriver this. I guess I'll be camping outside Best Buy in the bitter cold.

I don't know if anyone told you this but.....ITS A FREAKING VIDEO GAME CONSOLE.
*ahem* That said, don't be stupid and freeze your ass off when you have one already pre-ordered.

dont listen to them! Do it! you dont have to stay over night... Not many people are going to be camping. All the hardest core gamers already got theirs and its f-ing cold so just go a couple hours early. at launch day in my area even the people that came 20 minutes early got 360s

Right, I'm not going to camp for hours, I aint crazy. My friend only had to wait outside for like 30 minutes at a Best Buy on launch day! I doubt it will be that bad.
