XBOX 360, released on monday

I'm a little late, I know :)

the Xbox 360 console was released monday (22 nov.) many American electronics stores sold out of the coveted console on the first day it went on sale and many who queued overnight were left empty handed. Some wise `ebayers` (re)sold their new console for ~$600 (while stores were selling it for $400 before they went out of stock). As you may know, Microsoft is selling the Xbox 360 in two bundles but few gamers seemed happy to settle for the cheaper version of the unit that does not have a 20 GB hard drive.

I wonder when they'll arrive to Lebanon (a few months maybe?) & when we'll be able to get them for an affordable price (few years maybe? :lol:).

2 of my friends on Xbox Live already bought it.

They seem pretty happy with it, considering it still has the same Xbox Live, just different games. But you can still play Xbox games on Xbox 360, so that means that mostly everyone will still continue to play Halo 2 on Xbox Live even if they have Xbox 360 because Xbox 360 can play Halo 2 on Xbox Live :)

Good news everyone.

I'm getting Xbox 360 for Christmas because my relative is coming to Lebanon this Christmas so I'll just buy an Xbox 360 over Ebay ( my dad still has an Ebay account ) and send it to her address. Then she gets it in the mail and brings it with her to Lebanon and then she gives it to me.

It all works out...

I'm going to ask for some more stuff too like maybe a PSP, some Xbox Games, an IPod Video...

Of course we're going to have to pay for the stuff though :)
