Shit, good for them, but I had no idea BB sold consoles. How is it doing at other retailers/vendors? Any word from GameStop? Also is this official preorder or just the store preorder?

blockbuster pre-order list?

1.xbox one
2. iron man blu ray

What other systems have they taken preorders for?

The title couldn't be more misleading. Blockbuster UK should be in the title.

I didn't know blockbuster still existed.

Did someone took note of the fact these pre orders are 20$ worth ?

That is hilarious. If anything, it shows people are still interested in the Xbox one. Good news overall.

Xbox One is getting really good response and coverage from press in the UK. Day after reveal Xbox One was on BBC 6'Oclock news. With the report stating that Micosofts console was shedding the kiddy image consoles have and becoming much more than just games. BBC refferred to it as the Iphone 1 of the console market.

PS4 in comparison had no coverage in the news AT ALL.

Also at GAME where I pre ordered my Xbox One and 3 games Xbox One is promoted heavily with massive posters already. PS4 had a small sign behind the tills.

Seems like the interent negativity doesnt matter 1 small inch.

On the flip side I wont buy any sony products for at least 6 years. Their finanncial situation worries me and I wont buy a product that might not exist or bee supported in 6 years if they go bust. And as they are not allowed to borrow money for a minimum of 10 years, thats worrysome.

Looking at the Xbox 360 support from Microsoft lately, I'd worry more about Xbox1.

Not really for me. I have 12 games in my collection Ive yet to play. All that I want to play. So no worries for me there. I wont be playing the 360/PS3 in 12 months time. I dont have  time for 2 generatiions worth of games. I have a PS3 also. But will be trading that in for te Xbox One. 

Games like the Last Of Us etc  dont matter much to me next to next generation Forza 5. 

So yeah Id be fine if 360 support stopped in November.
