What evil Seece said.

Also, was this thread really neccessary??????


Dude, I got a good laugh from that one. Not cause I think Seece is evil but the idea that someone else might think so is amusing to me. That and I think it just has an awesome ring to it. @ Seece, you should consider this name as a gamertag.

 

OT, it's a tough call really. I hate to utter the word "shortages" because it's always sounded like a BS excuse. I mean I know that shortages are a reality for different items at different times but for some reason it just sounds weak to me. I happened to be in Target tonight and I strolled into the gaming section. I noticed a nice little supply of Kinect sensors but for some reason, I didn't check out the 360s. Are Kinect sensors suppose to be supply constrained?



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

I don't get the shortages stuff from this site only the holyday and the halo reach bundles seems to be out of stock that was the case last week too


so, is that site suppose to check the in stock levels of every store?  Because my Best Buy only has 4 gig kinect bundles in stock.  That doesn't really mean anything, as it is anecdotal, but it does serve to show you that there are stores out of stock on certain skus.

That website might check the online availability, but since 90% of console sales take place at actual stores, that pretty much means nothing when it comes to shortages.



I'm not convinced of the massive 360 shortages. I have seen them in stock in large quantities at Target, Best Buy, and Wal-Mart in the last couple of days in various different SKU's. And plenty of Kinect's as well in two of those stores. The shortages are nothing like the shortages that the Wii saw for nearly 3 years straight.

A quick check at Best Buys website and the only SKU they are "sold out" of is the 250gb model without Kinect that is priced at $299. A quick check at Wal-Marts website and the only SKU that is "sold out" is the 250gb with Kinect that is priced at $399. Target seems to only carry the 4gb models with and without Kinect. And Gamestop seems to only be short on the 4gb units that are priced at $199.

It does have the comic-book-villain air to it. I approve.



I doubt it. 

DS 

WII

PS3

360

PSP

That's my prediction.

I dont know why xbox 360 fanboys exist.. usually fanboys support the underdog! microsoft is a rich company i never seen people praise and support a "rich company".



can u stop bringing up the shortages! it's getting really annoying.



I don't know if we can deny shortages. I made a little test. Yeah, this one is ithout significance.

MS sells 5 variations of xbox. Holiday Bundle. 4 GB, 250 gb and the two Kinect ones.

I checked these at amazon. (Italy, France, Canada, Germany, UK, US)

No amazon-shop has them all. 2 or 3 are out of stock everywhere (or well be in stock in 4 weeks).

It is just a little example.



even without the shortage's 360 wont sell anything more han 40k more than ps3 in america

 

and in Emeaa ps3 is over 360 by 20k this week and in japan ps3 should be over 360 by like 30k

and i only mentioned ps3 because it is in the place you think 360 will be
