Anybody going to buy or trade up for the new Xbox?
 
Just curious, the new xbox S is pretty badass, they've been sold out everywhere, online, all the stores... anyone been lucky enough to nab one?

I still have mine, its actually the 1st Generation one, I remember sleeping on the sidewalk in front of the PX just to buy it haha, i was so proud of it, I made it up until Modern Warfare 2 before it took a shyt on me, figured it was time for an upgrade, this one has a 250gb hard drive and built in WiFi, its pretty badass really.

same here, cept i was right in the middle of FF XIII so the wait is pissing me off. i was hoping they'd get some in today but no...:shakes head:

My cousin works at best buy in Florida, and he says they haven't even been getting them. Evidently MS is holding back shipments to try to clear out stock, but frankly, there's way too many old 360s left for them to expect them to all sell for a 50 dollar discount. That doesn't even cover the wi-fi that's included with the slim lol.

Red370 06-29-2010 07:35 PM

Well like I said gentlemen, if its the new Xbox you want, shoot me a PM, I got the hook up :)

MC 06-29-2010 07:39 PM

i got one almost 2 weeks ago


traded in all my old xbox stuff the day it was announced for 194... then got it shipped from gamestop.com in 2 days.... ended up paying like 126 with tax for a brand new xbox

how is it? is it as quiet as they say? does it stay cooler?

azn370z 06-29-2010 07:53 PM

There's a lot of eb stores that have it in stock, just not the store I traded it in at. Waiting isn't a big deal, until gears comes out.

now how is this... the damn website dont even have any in stock, yet some eb stores do? does anyone else see how flawed that is? No EB games within 300 miles of me has any :shakes head:

azn370z 06-29-2010 07:59 PM

Eb.com does have it in stock but you have to buy their bundle. I was at bestbuys and they had several.

its very quite... i would say like my PS3... as far as the cooling its got that big vent on the broad side now that really lets alot of heat out... it also has a built in failsafe that if the console does get too hot the center light will blink red and a message will pop up telling you you have a ventilation issue and you can resume playing when the light stops blinking ( this hasnt happened to me im just relaying what i read and saw the pic of on a tech blog)

but yeah i love it... i just got a new 1080P 60" TV and my old 360 didnt even have HDMI so having that and the 250G is really cool.... i HATED my old 360... it was my 4th and i had disc read errors and freezes all the time.... so i laughed a little on the inside when gamestop gave me all that credit for it

MC 06-29-2010 08:17 PM

and as far as availability... i got mine overnight online but my brother went into the local gamestop store to trade up and they said it would be 2 weeks.. we asked if we could just get the extra promotion credit on a edge card like i did and just get it on gamestop.com but they said no and it was like a $60 difference in trade in value at the store so he is gonna just have to wait... they didnt hardly believe me when i told them i got 1 just 2 days after it was shown at E3... i told them it was on their own site and said ships in 24 hours... so i guess it varies

i know target and bestbuy might have them but gamestop really has the lock down because of the trade in offers for the old 360... which end on july 13th just so everyone knows

HKYStormFront 06-29-2010 08:17 PM

haha, hilarious, I still have my 1st Gen, yep, 1st Gen 360, i went a good 4 years before I got the RROD, just in time for my microsoft warranty to expire, bastards. I kept baking it, it would work for about 10 hours of gameplay, then shyt itself again, so I finally said fcuk it and bought this new one, my PS3's been getting alot of attention lately, hopefully this'll even out the play time. Oh, heres my new setup, the big one is my new Mitsubishi 73" 3D juggernaut, the smaller one is a samsung 50" LED for reference:tup:
