Jon Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 5 days! damn thats good were did u hear that? It was an official line from MS, i think it is on eurogamer.
Moz La Punk Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 I so hope I have one this friday... I'll wear my Xbox pre-order sweater for a year long if I manage to get one then! Ok maybe not.
CooInTheZoo Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 crap. Someone on that other forum said Argos rang them and said there prob wouldnt be enough for everyone. I ordered not two weeks ago. crap.
Caris Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 WHAT!, link me everything i might need to camp out side asda at this rate
rokhed00 Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 my Xbox pre-order sweater Did you knit it yourself?
scubahood Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 me and my mate had a plan of going into town getting going to a club having a few drinks then leaving at like 11:30 to get to asda for 12 but i dunno if i want to risk it might just get lashed outside the asda instead
The3rdChildren Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 No idea when my friend and I are going to our nearest Asda. Probably as early as it takes to secure one premium pack each, we'll have Mario Kart DS, Jump Superstars etc, so it won't exactly be a trial. I just don't fancy turning up with 30 people already there, so a long day ahead. Something forboding tells me that Thursday is going to be a real nightmare. If for some insane reason I can't get myself a 360 at Asda, I'll go scale some stores early next morning and/or stop at Tesco on the way home. I think part of the fun of this launch is the anxiousness over actually being able to get one.

I see where your coming from with the anxiety, you'll get some buzz if when you get one, im just gonna sit on me arse and wait for the royal mail to do their stuff.
Caris Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Its like an Adventure , but seriuosly im really excited, and i no what you mean about if you will/wont get one i feel the same way <3 :P. But i have to say im saying this now but if i dont get one on the day ill will be really upset . Btw a shop near me is selling 30 none pre-orders. at 12 at night, what time would you say i would have to go there to secure a place in the cue? just as a guess? i would say miday.
Caris Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 ahhhh, its a nice feeling to say "hey, this time next week Next-gen arrives" May i just say to Good luck to everyone for a 360. i no this is a bit gay and sounds corney but these are the alst places i can think of if people are having bother, thought i mase well try and help. ASDA : There not taking pre-orders and alot of them are open 24/7 so get waiting. GAME: There is a few stores getting some normall ones to sell in. ImportMadness: I THINK youll get one be4 Xmas but as you all know there NTSC. Ebay : Youll Defo get one on launch.... Might cose more than your house though. Hope this help, i know thus has been discussed before but if i reminds one person of somewere they havnt checked its worth it.
Moz La Punk Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Did you knit it yourself? No, I got it from Microsoft. Everyone in The Netherlands gets one if they buy the pre-order package.
OptimusPrime Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I allready bhought COD2 x360..was early in the stores....now the wait for the X360. It was 60 euro's not to bad
DiemetriX Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Got an xbox360 that overheats or crashes? dont want to send it in? Here is how you fix the problem. Hang your Powersuplay up in the air or simply let it stand on a open cardboardbox so that it's bottom don't touch the floor. That was easy.. wasen't it?
Caris Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Is that true ^^^ or are you joking? were did you hear that? EDIT: i heard they over heat when u lie them down? so is it nothing to do with that? is it the power supply thats making them over heat?
CooInTheZoo Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 If anything, its standing it up that will cause a problem, lay it dowwwn. The main air vents are top and bottom, and people have accaused having your console on its side of scratching disks. Also, wobbles much?!!
Caris Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Coo add me to MSN ASAP. i need to talk to you about something. [email protected]

Bren Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Im hoping the staff will take pity and sell it a few hours early :P or at least let me put a bit of money down on one, depends how many ppl are their tho
cheets Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I can see atleast 10-20 people at each store, i have spoke to 2 people on OcUK and they are both going to the wigan one, and so is my mate from work.
