XBox idiots....
 
I stoped by my Target on the way home tonight(10:30pm) from working out, there's about a dozen people inline already for XBox inthe morining when we open at 8. It's going to be a long COLD night for them. Suppost to get around freezing tonight...

idiots.....

Hans 11-22-2005 02:52 AM

a few people at work did a halfday and left for walmart to get in line, and for a Microsoft product :roll: I prefer it over the ps2 but still.

I will be sure to stand in line at Best Buy for a Window Vista Retail box and media ha ha.

Plurr 11-22-2005 03:10 AM

omg i saw people in line at 8 pm waiting for it at target (before they even closed) thats just insane. i thought about selling hot cocoa and coffee to the people standing out there. it would be a huge profit since they are already gonna spend $500 plus games and crap so yah its crazy.

Some people are just too stupid to realize that the sale isn't THAT good. It'll be on sale at other places for nearly the same price up until Xmas, and for the $50 they save for staying in line, they're getting about $5 an hour for their time in the freezing cold. :lol:

ELMACHOGERACHO 11-22-2005 09:12 AM

PS3>XBOX 360 anyways.

Garb 11-22-2005 10:20 AM

I was going to go to best buy this morning at around 6, but I decided that I cant afford a 500+ purchase this week. Soon though :twisted:

its840 11-22-2005 10:25 AM

it being sold for 300$ but wait till spring when ps3 comesout its suposta drop

Garb 11-22-2005 10:58 AM

The crap version is 300 dollars.

The xbox Core is 300

the Xbox 360 is 400

The core is basically an Xbox with better graphics

The 360 suports wireless controllers, removable hard drive, and more that i cant remember at the moment...

compare em

its840 11-22-2005 11:45 AM

ya i know there are different ones, but from what i was told from a freinds who is a asst store manger for EB. that the only one that will be sold will be ther 300$ one. the others will be aval, but not for about a month. days before xmas. thats gonna be crazy.


welll i just checked bestbuy.com and they are selling the core and the 360 units...


someof them for over 700 bucks . f*uck that. if anyone members thatt he first xboxs that where sold broke. what makes them think these ones will last more then a yr

NiKo 11-22-2005 01:01 PM

I remember about a month ago I decided to check on ebay to see if 360s were going out yet, and boy, were they. The average price of a 360 on ebay at that point was $750! I said screw that, I'll just wait til the price drops like I did when i got the XBox. The PS3 is supposed to give it real competition when it comes out, so Microsoft will more than likely play it smart and drop their price to what a normal person could afford when the PS3 hits the market. I'll just keep waiting until one "falls off the back of a truck" LOL

Chad V 11-22-2005 01:48 PM

friend of mine stood in line this mornin, got a 360 premium, with the harddrive and all that jaz, and is going to turn around and sell it on ebay for twice of what he payed, cause john Q public will pay for it. :twisted: I on the otherhand am waiting until like feb to get mine sine only good game for it is CD 2.

SSEimatt93 11-22-2005 01:57 PM

I do not play video games at all, therefore, i hope those people freeze to death.
:lol: cause god knows these are the people that will not show up for work for three or so days until they get over the inital addiction/flu.
:slap:

bjjoh 11-22-2005 05:26 PM

That is crazy, the store I work at only got 14 total units. 10 cheap xboxes and 4 premium xbox 360s. People where lining up at about 7pm to purchase at 12:01am. I can't even count how many calls today for are you sold out of xbox 360s.

Gumball 11-22-2005 05:58 PM

I will get the version weeks or more like did with XP

Jim W 11-22-2005 07:41 PM

God damn people...its a stupid video game system, and probably obsolete as soon as it gets plugged in once you get it home :roll:

I am not too impressed with the performance of it. running it on an older box though.

Phantom 11-22-2005 11:08 PM

The only thing im not sure on is my video card so hopefully my laptop will break 2 more times :twisted: TY bustbuy service plan.

Also I see the xbox 360 dropping in price $50-100 just about a month before PS3 is released and a nother drop in price just before or after the PS3 dose there first price cut. This way they will make the most money and sway more people to the 360

aviator327 11-23-2005 07:41 AM

Check out the shipping charges some sellers are asking. Just saw one where the seller is asking 100.00 shipped via USPS. Hook, line & sinker.

ga93sle 11-23-2005 08:58 AM

Oh well. They're the dummies. My PS2 does me just fine. And all 5 games I have for it. lol
