Well it looks like my mom won't buy this for me until christmas, seeing as I won't buy it myself, but it's not something i do to buy my own game systems, it's just not done.
So hopefully I'll be able to catch up in time to be on the same track as the rest of the Xbox360 playing community, even though i won't be able to get online because i don't have dsl at my house and here at college the ports for online games are closed.

Anybody waiting until christmas to get it?
Anybody getting the $300 one? I certainly won't be.

Is it comprehensible.....

Well, I waited and waited and waited today and it never arrived. I contacted other winners and they all got theirs, so I've sent a complaint to the Sweepstakes. This has severely pissed me off seeing as how they never ship on Sundays, which means I only get it 1 day prior to release.

I work the night shift at work so I sleep during the day, but I stayed up all day today waiting for it. I've been up for over 24 hours and I am a grumpy boy. To make matters worse, I had invited a bunch of friends over to play the system and had to call the party off when it didn't arrive.

Pepsi Cola and Microsoft suck balls.

hahahahahaa your fiends ere laughing at your ass to i bet.. hahaha i know i would... j/k

Dude...triple posting = stupid. stick out tongue

And no, my friends aren't laughing at me, they are upset they couldn't play it yet.

I called Pepsi Cola today and they are unsure why it wasn't delivered on time and will contact me tomorrow with more information.

The Milwaukee Jounrnal Sentinal (One of Wisconsin's biggest newspapers) had a cover article on the 360. Apparently there is going to be a shortage of 360's this holiday season, thus making them hard to find and not everyone getting one when they want >_<
;_; Although I've heard people are already putting them up on eBay for outlandish prices.

Ugh...

Old news.

It's because of the Worldwide release, so they say. It was much tougher to get the consoles built for the vast amount of people. Think of it as the same amount of consoles for a US release, but spread across the globe. There's going to be a shortage. I've heard reports of Wal-Marts and EBGames ordering 100 consoles, and only receiving 50 or less. Even some who preordered their systems might not see them until January!

LOL, sucks to be one of those 170 people. I tried to win an Xbox 360 at the instant win contest at GameFly. No luck today, try again next week

Stupidest question I was asked today, numerous times:

"Will the Xbox360 games work on my Xbox?"

I kid you not. no expression

sorry

XBOX 360 games are at a higher resolution then XBOX games, thus need more computing and graphics power.

Well, yeah, plus they're just different consoles. Like asking if an Xbox will play your PS2 games... not gonna happen. Nobody understood, either. Sad.
