    Yeah u are right, just making sure I didn't want to get stuck with the core. Hopefully I can get this system with no problems. I think parents you are getting this for there kids will wait to when it gets closer to christmas, unless there kids read the stuff on here and tell there mommy or daddy you have to get it know, it will be to hard to get it near christmas. The Walmart near me is right next to the richest area in my city, so I am sure they will be plenty of spoiled brats there.

      I called the Walmart that gave me the info that i posted in topic 1. I ask the guy how many units are they getting and he said he doesn't know, but it sounded like he didn't know to much about the 360 anyway, so I am just gonna call them tommrow and hope to talk to the lady that gave me some good info or call another Walmart. I also called Eb games and asked them how is a gaming store like yourself getting so little amount compared to retail stores. He said there is about 5 -10 or even more EB games to 1 Best buy, so if you do the math it averages about the same. He also knew about the best buy inventory going around the internet and said those might not be so accurate.

        I'm getting a 360 at Walmart. It pays when you are tight with employees.

                The Walmart near me is in a rich area and I am sure there will be a cop there, so I don't think ther will be any problems. If i got to push a little kid out of the way to get my ticket at Walmart I will J/K. I am pretty big guy and if I got to pistol whip somebody with there own gun, I will and then I will lay the samckdown on there cany as#$.

                          Called my local WalMart and they still dont know how many they are getting, they havent heard anything about tickets being handed out and generally havent a clue on how this is all going to go down. I would think that if a store is going to be selling a hot item at 12:01 they would know that it is they are doing with it considering its coming out pretty quickly.

                            I called a bunch of places today. I called 3 walmarts to find out how many units they are getting. One tells me he doesn't know and the other 2 Walmarts said what are you asking for? I said XBOX 360 and then they said I don't understand. I said you work in the electronics department and they both said yes and then I said nevermind and hung up. How could they not know what a 360 is. After that crap I called 2 targets which knew what they were talking about, maybe b/c they sounded young.I ask both the same ? which is how many units they are getting. The first store said he doesn't know how many they are getting and then said you are like the 50th person to ask about the 360 today(wow). This is gonna be hard to get. The second target told me he doesn't know how many they are getting, but he does know there orders got cut by 25%. I really hope I can get this system, everyday it seems that it is gonna be harder and harder.

                                Calling around now is probably useless. I know if I got constantly bothered about the same question I would just not answer it anymore. Esp if they have customers in the store to deal with. That crap happens to me all the time *damn hate being a manager at PetSmart* .
