did gamestop tell you that you were going to have to wait that long or are you just going by what people have been saying?

there getting the most 360's out of all the retailers, so I would check often.

Break into someone's house, rape and murder them and then make off with the 360. Sure, the rape and murder isn't essential... but might as well have some fun whilst you're at it, right?

On a more serious note... I've never understood why anybody would want to buy a console at or just after their initial release. At this time, I always figured they were overpriced and had a relatively naff selection of games.

of course they will they whant to get more shipments out for the holiday buying season which doesnt start till this friday, its the whole point of launching during this time. also you should keep your pre-order just in case that guy didnt know what he was talkibg about.

EDIT: I know have a link to back this up,link (http://yahoo.reuters.com/financeQuoteCompanyNewsArticle.jhtml?duid=mtfh3496 2_2005-11-22_23-25-25_n22411425_newsml)
