Very busy day. Not much in system sales -- a couple DSes.

I will just say this: starting this Sunday, the storm is coming.

And no, that does not mean Motorstorm will be price dropped to 39.99. Sorry Kwaad!

Let me guess - you are getting your first "insane" quantity of Wiis. No surprises there :)

Black Friday is NEXT week, right?

I'll poke a guess at ... 150 units?

 


That is one of the things happening next week, yes. Also, the buy 2 get 1 free Wii sale. Also, the 60 GB PS3 price drop (several stores in my area have some left). Also, a big rumor about the Xbox360 -- my manager said amazingly, that Halo 3 may be packaged with the system as well for the holidays. DO NOT QUOTE ME ON THAT UNTIL I CAN CONFIRM. The Microsoft reps come in again next week.

That would be a very smart move.

It would bury Sony for the holidays (in the US anyway). But Halo is a solid seller, and this would cost MS a lot of potential revenue. I guess at this stage, further building on a sales lead >> making extra money for them. A lot of the revenue would be recouped via other software anyway.

Your being sacastic your always being sacastic.

I just want to know for sure because Im going to buy a ps3 game this sunday. Could be assasins creed, uncharte(if its out), or cod4. but motorstorm would do fine along with another ps3 game.

Dude go with COD4.  I mean, have you played motorstorm.  I don't get why people like that game.

COD4 is awesome from what i've heard from people I trust.  It's likely PS3's game of the year.  Though if you feel overloaded on shooters since you own resistances AC or Uncharted might be better choices.



Yeah get uncharted or COD4 leo, honestly, Motorstorm is just plain boring.

Another day, getting busier all the time now. I could be the sole employee working the electronics section two months ago: now, it's three people during the prime business hours, and it will keep increasing.

I sold two PS3 60 GBs today; I have one left, most likely the last one I'll ever have.  There is a definite, definite uptick in PS3 interest.

We're out of Assassin's Creed on PS3 now as well. It has definitely sold well here, given the fact that it's M rated.

I can confirm that Halo 3 will be included with the 360 now, but it looks like other sites have already picked up on it (Kotaku reported the rumor about an hour after I stated it in this thead. Go me!)

Just got off work at 11 PM, I start work again at 7AM tomorrow. Ugh. Will give more info tomorrow.

So is Halo 3 actually going to be included in the box with the 360??? Which pack, Pro or Core or Elite? Will it still have Forza and Marvel as well?

Bod has you fooled. The avatar only looks like a cat cause of how small it is.




In actuality, it is a ferocious Liger! Look at those eyes, sharp and slanted. A furrowed brow beneath layers of thick blood-stained fur. A wide mouth full of glistening teeth and a waiting tongue, desperate for the blood of innocents.

Be warned. You will be frightened.
