Xbox does second round of 360s

Re: Xbox does second round of 360s

He wants one, after seeing some of the nice games on the 360 I bet he changed his mind.

That's 1/2 true. I always wanted one, but thought I'd just wait until baseball games came out. I didn't see any sports games right now that were of any interest.

However, Call of Duty2 has been calling my name since I saw some screens of it. Project Gotham Racing might be another game I could really enjoy.

I'm also a sucker for toys and have a nice vacation over Xmas. That could be some great 360 time!!

If the second shipment is supposed to come at the end of the week, is there a certain day the stores will be getting them?. I thought stores only received shipments on tuesdays.

Most new games/DVD's/CD's come out on Tuesday's but that's not the only day stores receive shipments. They're not going to get a shipment of just XBOX 360's, it'll be with the other load the stores receive as well.

At Circuit City we're currently getting four trucks a week because of the time of the year.

We're getting hosed when it comes to baseball games... unless MS brings back HH out of NOWHERE!

If you DO get one and PGR3... you'd love it. It's a freakin' great game and I haven't been too fond of racers... but the XBL component is so freakin' well done!

Re: Xbox does second round of 360s

I think I was reading the thread where the info on the next MLB game was coming out. I had just remembered that there was an exclusive deal on the baseball game. Ironically, I don't see M$ making any type of sports games, let alone baseball. They sold their stuff right, or did they make a deal that I somehow overlooked or forgot? That could be interesting.......

They bought High Heat like year and half ago, so their could be a good baseball game in the works.

Oh snap!! I forgot about that pre-order crap. That might mean I won't have a system to get my hands on for a while huh? Darn it!! I guess my plans are unraveling....again Ya'll think they'll have some in-store systems available for pickup without the stupid bundles and crap like that??

Im sure you can find one in the comming days just call some places often like best buy, circuit city, wal mart places like that. They dont do pre orders.

Re: Xbox does second round of 360s

Good deal. I like Best Buy most for some reason but I'm definitely going to give CC & Walmart a buzz when I get that money. I wonder if they'll accept a check and let me walk out of their store?? For real though, good looking out. Can't wait to get my hands on NBA 2K6. I'm so thirsty to try that darn game out.......

Re: Xbox does second round of 360s

Talked to some dude on the phone at Target and the dude said they're recalling all 360's. I just laughed because I talked to someone yesterday morning and they said they'd be getting a couple in between today and thursday. This is getting crazy

I've been calling each of my local retailers on a daily basis, and I haven't heard anything that bizarre yet. That's some funny stuff.

The one thing that I have learned from calling these places (Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target, K-Mart, Circuit City, etc.) is to not put a whole lot of stock into what they're telling you. Why? Because each worker has a different story or date as to when they're getting the next unit or shipment of units. Either they don't really know, or they know and they don't feel like saying what's really going on.

On a side note, I've gotta give props to a Circuit City employee for straight-up honesty: After I asked him when they were expecting the shipment, he responded, "I don't know, but I'm grabbing the first system I see on our floor cuz I don't have it yet and I want one."

Yeah I'm not expecting much from the next-gen baseball games. However, I'm a baseball addict so I'll pick it up regardless of how bad it is. I would love for HH to come back, but it would be a huge shock if it did.

I actually like racers so I'm sure I'd love PGR3. That and CoD2 are the only games right now that interest me. Kind of odd since all of my current Xbox games are sports games!

I expect 989's MLB game on the 360 to be increadible. After the last two incarnations of Sega's game I have little hope for that franchise though. I guess NCAA won't be coming out next year for the 360, which is a huge disappointment, but in 2007 it will hopefully be increadible. Between the football and baseball exclusive agreements it would seen we're entering a dark ages for mainstream sports games. Ouch.

I didn't think they could make a game for the 360 just like they couldn't for the original Xbox. Did I miss something and they now can?

They can't... I meant to say "for the PS3" but wasn't quite awake yet. That would be next-gen though. Sorry about that.
