I cam confirm.

If you go into a store to pre order X1 you currently cant do it.

I asked another store and they are taking them.

Gamestop is selling out of pre-orders, this has nothing to do with Gamestop declining sales.

Looks like this system is gonna be a hot eBay commodity come the holidays.

I dont think you want to argue with me whether we are taking pre orders or not.

Again I wont comment why, but but this is true.

Why are you a higher up at Gamestop? I've asked other stores and they are taking them, and they are still up on their website for pre-order.

Dude that's cruel. We're dying from curiosity.

At least give us a hint. Anything.

Wow if it's not because they are sold out, then this is big. Can't wait for some clarification. Keep us informed BenV!

If they are totally sold out for launch then it isn't good. Ben already informed us that PS3 preorders were higher and he expects PS4 to beat out the XBone in the US this holiday.

I wonder what's up.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Then he might want to tell specific store in North Haven, CT to stop taking pre-orders amongst others.

Good or not good it's debatable. This would for sure mean, that they did not have many spots for preorders, be it because of yield problems, heating problems, any other problems. I think that's a given, since they are only launching in 21 countries.

So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Sony is going to have quite the holiday.

MS will be successful as well........if supply allows.
